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?

I'm going to guess that these new WS will be involved in the third path of VW...
By Darkzeru 2011-11-29 02:54:03
Oh yea did they say they was going to add the newer Nyzul Isle this update or was that something they just mentioned they'd do at some point?

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 :(

Asked Camate about the video and other ws's and when they will be introduced exactly (for an official response since it hasn't been translated yet by the dev team) and this is what he said:
11-29-2011 12:36 PM | Camate | Community Rep |  |
| Yes, all 14 new weapon skills will be on the test server once maintenance is completed tomorrow So you will be able to try each and every one of them out! Hope you are looking forward to it! |

I am back from a nice Thanksgiving break where I ate way too much, and I have some goodies for you all!
I have a couple of images of some of the new weapon skills that will be implemented. They look pretty impressive if I do say so myself Once all the testing has been finalized, we’ll be putting them onto the test server for you all to try out.
Without further ado...
Great Katana:
Tachi Shoha

Archery:
Apex Arrow

Scythe:
Entropy

Dagger:
Exenterator

*Please note that the English weapon skill names have not yet been finalized and are subject to change. |
Great Sword:
Resolution

Polearm:
Stardiver

Staff:
Shattersoul

Sword:
Requiescat

|
Old:
Right now there isn't any English translation (though I doubt they would give us much info this early other than how they look), but I will update once the official English release is out.

新WSについて
こんにちは。
お待たせしている新しいウェポンスキルですが、こうやってテキストを書いている間にも続々とエフェクトやモーションが出来上がってきています!! (どうやら今回は、種族ごとにモーションが少し異なるようですね。フムフム…)
このまま問題なく検証作業を終えられれば、近々皆さんにもテストサーバー上で皆さんにも触っていただけるかと思います。ぜひ楽しみにお待ち下さい!
……と、ここまで書いてふと気付いたことが。
このまま投稿を終了するのもアレですので、ひとつふたつ画像を撮影してみましょうか。
画像映えするものを選んでみますので、少々お待ちください。
(これが見たいっていうのがあれば、チェックしてみますよ!)

For the new WS
Hi. Is a new weapon skill have kept you waiting, come-completed one after effects and motion even while writing the text to do this? ! (Apparently this is sounds like a slightly different motion for each race. Fumufumu ...) Once finished this verification problems remain, and I also enjoy touching you on your test server soon also. Please wait for us to enjoy! ... And suddenly noticed that the writing so far. Sometimes it is left to finish this post, let's take a picture or two, one. I'll choose what image aesthetics, please wait. (What is it to see if any of this means, we try to check!)  |
