Intimidate / Killer Effects affect on TP moves

[Vedder]

I think we all recall the Paralyze / TP moves debate with the rogue admin over at the Wiki.

In a somewhat related question, I was wondering about how Killer Effects affect TP moves? Is it the same as Paralyze or can a TP move be intimidated and TP lost?

There is no mention of it one way or the other on the Wiki, so I was looking for some input here.

Pretty sure it acts the same way as Paralyze. Which means it wouldn't intimidate a TP move.

[safer]

its been a while since my last gration fight... but i dont recall him intimidating us when we built up TP on the lesser mobs, and ran to him to WS

[Midnightjade]

I don't think I've seen a TP move get interrupted by Intimidation so far, and I've soloed BST to this point so there's not been much to distract me from the mob.

Could be totally wrong on this, but that's my impression to date. Hope it helps.

TP moves are only stoppable with stun...

[Seyrr]

My last Gration fight was more recent than Safer's, and I can confirm that no weapon skill was ever intimidated. I was acting as hate caller and TH bitch (probably placebo, but we did go n-1/n with n around... 5, I think?) so I had plenty of time to pay attention to what was going on.

Interesting side note: no ranged attack was ever intimidated either. The RNG pulled hate a lot, and had no trouble with using Gration to build TP. Magic and melee attacks were intimidated as normal.

and amnesia.

if you get amnesia while readying a weaponskill it won't stop it like stun/terror/sleep. you just can't use any JA while under the influence of the effect.

BLU doesn't get amnesia, only terror (Jettatura)

[Tordall]

Unless there's something I don't know about the only way for a player to petrify a mob is via a beastmaster pet & {sic}.

Intimidation has never kicked in on a TP move for me. I wasn't paying attention to it, but I can't recall it ever kicking in on a ranged attack either.

[Shadida]

Intimidation cannot stop:

Ranged Attacks
Weapon Skills
Job Abilities
Avatar melee attacks

It's not like Paralyze in every way.

and amnesia.

if you get amnesia while readying a weaponskill it won't stop it like stun/terror/sleep. you just can't use any JA while under the influence of the effect.

That's because players don't have charging times for WSs, unlike mobs. But I guess in the end its purely academical since we can't amnesia the mobs to find out if their TP move would finish going off or not.

We do it's just really short... I've definitely had WSs stunned after seeing "Shadida readies Sidewnder" or whatever.

Well, not really enough to see if the amnesia happened before or after the "readies WS". Not like being able to test on a goblin bomb toss, or something.

i remember a "you readies Dancing Edge" and it never went off when i was exping on imps but i can not remember if it was because the mob died or because i got hit with amnesia
