Masamune and Murasame for Edge in FF4.
Oh yeah, I never really used him so don't know how strong they were.
How did you "never really use him"? I dont believe at any point of FF4 could you pick whos in your party, and he was part of the last party.

In one of the versions you could pick party members towards the end and they brought everyone back from the dead. Still had to use the main party before then tho

I just googled this. I dont believe I played the GBA version, or if I did, its not the version of the game I have memories of.

But that would explain why someone could have never used Edge.

to be fair his attacks were not the best it was just the throw damage cecil and kain do more damage at that point. with ragnarok/excalibur

Even if they did play that version, you're still forced to use Edge since he's required for 3 or 4 dungeons before you get access to the final dungeon and the party swap option.

Honestly WAR either needs Upheaval put on STR or another WS from dark GAXE that decently scales with STR.

Glory march
march with added regen and refresh. keeping the backline going

I am curious if prime weapons will give us a new weapon skill. dark relics I suspect maybe a alternate version of relic WS? example Kaiten but it is dark based. catastrophe but light based. altered animation to reflect this. its an interesting idea would be cool to at least see new weapon skills. or maybe this might lead into the ability to unlock relic weapon skills?

Standards are too high on BRD instrument being game breaking like they did with Honor March. They'll probably be like "We've heard that you've all wanted a sonnet for the pet jobs, we listened. The new song will give Pet: Fast Cast. Enjoy!"

Make them like the Su5 GKT- access to all WSs for that weapon type. I mean c'mon, SE....there's zero reason that BLM and SCH don't get Cataclysm and Earth Crusher naturally, yet the club-wielding WHM and GEO do.

If i am being honest i want the weaponskills from the past, cuz the gun that looks like a shotgun, would finally get a weapon skill that is a shotgun blast in cracker barrel. Also i would like Ublade so i get a fusion weaponskill as a blu >.>;

I'd do unspeakable things for Uriel Blade, if the Flashga stayed.

I've love to get Tartarus Torpor on the staff. AoE Dark damage, -MDB, -M.Eva, and AoE sleep? Yes *** please. Sick of not having Cataclysm on BLM or SCH because I don't have a specific subjob.

I guess they always skip January. Freshly picked (likely) 2/16 with the teaser for stage 3.

Then they come out 3/10 or They apologize for being late and the picked is 3/16 and weapons 4/10.

Here's what I really want from prime weapons.

Prime weapon to let Bst actually use their unique ability, Charm, in the current game.

Segment farming. Also Charm is not unique, Maiden's Virelai.

So now we know that the prime weapons will have the same yellow glow as relic weapons, but WILL have different weaponskills connected to each one and won't just re-use the original relic WS.

I'm hopeful that these are going to be more than just a recolor and will be dramatically different, end of the month should show some clues on where each weapon is heading.

Augments. No one weapon for non/dds is gonna work for all jobs. What a BLM wants and what a SMN wants on a staff are two VERY different things. If it is a flat "This is used for melee damage and weapon skills exclusively" then a good chunk of the weapons instantly become worthless.
