[Cairthenn]

as some jobs can already get that much skill

No?

b+ not A :3

I bet that they wouldnt get A skill (like they only gave rng half the stuff they said in teasers)

[Shinryuu]

WHM club S please.

[Fwahm]

No?

I'd say you're wrong, since my Dark Knight is currently sitting at 304 Scythe skill.

I'd say you're wrong, since my Dark Knight is currently sitting at 304 Scythe skill.

Do I actually have to point out what is wrong with this statement?

[Fwahm]

I never claimed it followed a curve.

However, skill above a formula change obeys that formula change.

If you have skill, and you have a torque that gives 7 skill, you get the reduced accuracy from >200 skill, not the standard accuracy from <=200 skill.

[Cairthenn]

It appeared as though you were arguing for how skill would be increased, not its effects...

Perhaps the side effect of being up for more than 24 hours? After rereading, it still looks like that's what you were saying, though >_>

[Shinryuu]

Go to bed Cairfield.

how can you say that acc over 300 isnt lowered more:

304skill
no reduction over 300=>[200+104*.9]=[293.6]=293
reduction(0.8acc/skill) over300=>[200+100*.9+4*.8]=[293.2]=293

we cant tell if acc over 300 is affected or not with current skill!

Well, maybe not perfectly, but we know that it's not less than .75 per skill. I was mostly talking about the possibility that Khamsin advanced that something like .25 acc per skill was possible, making a bigger skill gain per level pointless.

[Dude Of Bismarck]

I haven't exp'd on whm since 07 and SE brings this shit in now! I still have to finish my 74cor 61drk 61nin 60rdm 56war 52smn and a bunch of other jobs! /hateonSE

I see what you did there.

[Nightmarelord]

Shall Se finally release "Amatsu:Tsukikage"? THAT is enough to becon my return!

Weren't all the Amatsu: techniques just renamed versions of Samurai weaponskills used by Tenzen?

Or do you mean Cosmic Elucidation?

[Rocl]

The specific WS he's talking about is unique to Tenzen, not just a renamed SAM WS. It's the WS that closes Cosmic Elucidation.

Also keep in mind that they might just toss this calculation altogether, because at 99 the differences between skill ranks will be huge if they were to remain the same and just followed the same progression of the status quo. That is the reason that they are already normalized above 200 skill to begin with. I would not be surprised if there is further normalization or if they go back and re-normalize some of the numbers we already have.

[Byrthnoth]

I think if you read the update history of FFXI, they didn't lower the accuracy to compensate for lower skill ranks. They actually originally had skill over 200 grant . . . I want to say . . . 1/2 accuracy per skill? I remember it was something ridiculously low.

Anyway, I'm pretty sure they they adjusted it up to .9, which increased the gap between low and high rank skills.

Hm is it in Altana Viewer?

[Rionel]

So according to Sho, Afflatus: Solace and Misery, Yonin and Innin will be trademaark abilities and unusable subbed, based on the Vana'Fest 2010 footage.

Well you can't win 'em all! Would have been nice for /NIN to have some sort of offensive aspect other than Dual Wield ;x

[Byrthnoth]

Heh =p Oh well! Dual Wield III (@90) would probably make it a competitive sub considering Pizza, but if they don't adjust the skill cap formulas there will be scant few jobs who can take advantage.
