Well this is cool, I hope Tachi: Shoha has some sort of extremely useful utility to make it worth even being considered while holding a Masamune. Maybe it'll be a crit WS ~ and Fudo will be gimp(er)
If these weaponskills are slightly better or worth even using, the only weapons that win here are relics that dont need to be bound to their weaponskill(GK, sword, dagger, katana, gun/bow to a point.)

i doubt SE will give sam a more powerful WS. most like have power but a nice added effect that would make it better than their other ws but not a Fudo killer.

would be almost stupid to make a ws more powerful (dmg wise) than Fudo

It would really only be more powerful in Abyssea though, similar to Ascetic's Fury (As compared to Asuran Fists)

Consider this~ I've heard numerous times that Camlann's Torment absolutely stinks, and that Drakesbane is still bounds ahead of it. So I know they aren't 100% adamant about making Empyrean WS's the strongest.

its the aftermath affect that pulls them ahead i would assume. and plus if they are just skill related ws then they shouldnt be super powerful anyways. more powerful than previous skill/quested ws but less powerful than relic/mythic/emp ws.

Speaking of which, I wish aftermath worked on WS's. :c wruu

Also I bet they're gonna count these new WS (most likely quested or linked to some stupid rare/ex weapon) as staggering ws's in the new "Dungeon crawl system".

I foresee these weapon skills being neo Nyzul Isle!

But more WSNMs seems the more logical route.

First we had relics... then mythics... then empyreans... now we'll have epics! Complete with a new WS! All you need is to finish every quest/mission in the game, get all jobs to 99, obtain every WS/spell/etc... and have 99,999,999 gil.

And get 4356366456 Alexandrite from an unmodded Salvage.

Easy?

New WSs are going to require you to have 100+AGI due to the sheer amount of acrobatics you require to use all of them. :O!

In seriousness, love the animations already. <3 Mithra ones the best though, EPIC GREAT SWORD FRONTFLIP~!

Great sword looks amazing!

Mithra drg.....face down arse up!...... :P

Can anyone explain why we are getting such long and detailed/cool looking weapon skills now? Has anything changed in the game that stopped them from adding animations like this in the years before now?

I expect monk to have victory smites coming out of both fists + an asuran fist kick animation, make it happen SE.


That being said, I absolutely love GS animation and sword. Looking back at my previous words on the recycled new sam looking gekko ws animation I truely hope they put more into it like they did with these(Id be fine with a fudo+gekko or kaiten+gekko type of combination)

The new WS's look very interesting! I still get ppl whining about Jishnu's being lagtastic, with everyone spamming these new WS's ill be able to say upgrade whatever you're using or shut up lol. I like all the ideas/theories on WS's as well, would be cool if Apex was conal AoE but i highly doubt it :(
