Ninja does not have Utsusemi.

DOES NOT HAVE UTSUSEM-HNNGGGHhh

But still, I went from 28~32 in that party, so I won't go on about it. Also, BLUE MAGE DOES NOT KNOW WILD CARROT. I'll be working on that before the last 4 1/2 levels of BLU.

Speaking of gimps...


I'm tired of seeing clueless melee RDMs in Campaign. I've seen a couple of good ones, but by the whole they are such a depressing sight. As some kind of unwritten law, they all sub NIN, despite nearly everything spamming AoE attacks and Dual-wield swords, which just plain sucks. Although there are the two exceptions of Martial Anelace/Joyeuse or Joyeuse/Justice sword combos, and even then dagger/joyeuse might still be better damage. Granted, these all involve a Joyeuse, which not everyone has (had mine long enough to take it for granted, for shame) but in light of this, I always used low delay dagger/dagger combos when /nin, which allows for faster en-spell damage over sword/sword, and allows the use of Evisceration. But it's not just the weapon choices, it's full-timing bad gear choices (but that isn't a big deal if they aren't the kind of people who care for RDM melee, but they do come across as those that believe they should always be engaged because they are super-fighter mage+1!) and the fact that they debuff nothing, and rarely bother healing other people around them or even tank loose mobs for a bit so there's less things beating on the NPCs...sigh.

But anyway...

Obtained this!


Learnt this!


And am currently in the middle of the Sergeant Major quest, which involves a lot of waiting one game day (50mins~1hour, I forget) between each part, regardless if you suceed or fail (also fails have to be repeated) so it will take me a while.

Hey, was searching on Google and came across this Blog entry. And I completely agree about the sad RDM melee thing. Especially since SE recently talked about possible frontline updates, and the way RDMs have shown their appreciation is by sucking at it (watching RDMs melee in Errant or Yigit for example). It doesn't inspire confidence in the playerbase, since they basically have confirmation that RDM cannot be trusted to know how to be frontline, to even do something as basic as wear Accuracy gear.
