Also Martial weapons only work in main hand. TP+100 works in off hand though.

Ah yah that is how i got confused. Now i'm wondering what weaponskills has to do with blackmage. Or are you refering to specific skillchains for Magic Burst. (which has been a dead concept for i think 4 years?) If you were a good blm you would be able to predict a skillchain and plan accordingly from weaponskills used by dds as they run in or are performed from a distance from jobs such as RNG, a pretty beneficial boon to voidwatch where after 50% you want the mob dead fast.
But if your blm is too busy being hung up on the mystery that is weaponskill properties then it may seem like a far too perplexing topic for you, as you're probably too busy wondering why the nin isn't using atma of the cosmos to boost his blade: hi.

Cavaros Mantle, can add elemental belt/neck.
ATMA'S: UNDYING, BEYOND, RR
Need voker and (true) sata partner, stun member for mobs that cast magic at start is always a plus. Can kill rani <84%. Only mob this doesn't work on that I know of is isgebind (dragua?). With a good team Ive seen 14 Azdaja's go down. This is a one shot kill and if mob isnt turned or moved during SATA.

I know the difference between a physical weaponskill and a magical one lol - but predicting a magic burst on BLM seems to have diminishing returns.
Casting weaker spells for a chance to magic burst? "Welp , looks like they're using earth aligned weaponskills, better get stonaja ready" - has never crossed a BLMs mind, ever.
*edit* - not in the last 4 years.

*edit* - not in the last 4 years. Yeah, pretty sure that all of those scission skillchains are pretty daunting.
oh
wait
no
that's right
there's multiple elements to each respectable skillchain
huh
What a crazy world huh?
If you're in voidwatch where magic bursting actually matters, your dds will hopefully have empyreans, and if they have empyreans, they'll be predominately creating either light or darkness skillchains, but to be in the dark as to which weaponskills with create what with each other is just blatant ignorance.
Your attempt to rationalize not learning an aspect of one of your jobs is just laziness, and honestly it makes you look like a slob. (Not that confusing magical weaponskill elemental damage with skillchain properties wasn't already enough to do that)

sorry, meant Beyond/Ultimate/Smiting Blow. and yes, i said /war with only 1 MAB katana. the 1 katana activates fencer, which kicks in the TP+40, for about 240-250TP Blade: To.

You're right, this conversation has just put a lot of things in perspective. If you put this much effort into high school, you could have graduated! Maybe not with decent grades, but ***at least you'd have a half-decent job!
Just imagine the possibilities.

Just imagine the possibilities. Okay... so you're so upset about this that you're not only getting defensive and making things worse for yourself, you're going to start making RL attacks? Bad idea, even if any of your accusations were true. Should've taken my advice. Thanks for the laugh though.

I am sorry. I come to the forums to learn and share ideas like everyone else. Apparently that means being insulted, RL or otherwise.

What guy?
But really, Rizwaan topicbanned.
After camping the AH for about 3 months, I finally got my hands on a Shamo (TP Bonus Katana) and decided to give Blade: To a shot on Apademak (weak against ice/earth). Here were my results:
The above was done using Smiting/Beyond/Ultimate. Since it seems to do well, I am considering getting Atma of Undying for another 20% ice damage boost, but I didn't want to blow another brew to see if it will out parse Ultimate.
Any suggestions on how to squeeze a bit more out of it? :)
