Just curious, I see all the hype for Jet Boots, but honestly I really want to use Dual Blades way more.

I think Dual Blades will be cool, but it's more of the same, as they were in PSO(and other games probably), so it was kind of a given, but a welcome given. Jet Boots on the other hand is new, so it's no surprise people are crazy to try them.

I'm actually pretty interested in them. The mechanics of the the photon blades interests me. The way they're described seems to imply that they'll stick to enemies and by hitting the hitbox they're on you recover more PP. If this works for other players as well I foresee some interesting things coming from it, and it would explain what photon blade fever does.

The only reason I'm more interested in the boots at the moment is because we've seen more interesting stuff with them than we have with dual blades, and I've been wanting a decent melee/tech hybrid for a while.

What was the PSU PA that was two swings up, two swings down, then a lightspeed dash forward that catapulted enemies into the air? That was a fun PA, at least the last part.

I don't have anyone slated to be the Bouncer, but all I know is we can finally drown in 'Cathedral Suit Shadow' KIRITO clones everywhere, until an actual SAO collab comes out.

I also like potatoes.

I'm hyped because of hope that they will bring Musashi in from pso1, my personal favorite. Don't care much about kicking things in the face because real men use their fists, and we can already do that.

Will the twin sabers be usable on any other class other than Bouncer without crafting them to all class?

I'm probably going to be disregarding jet boots for the most part actually, I'm really only interested in using Dual Blades since those were my weapon of choice in PSU, and since I'm most likely subbing Fighter with it, jet boots probably won't be the most effective method of attack anyway.

I hope blade destruction is back that was a dope PA. With photon blades existing it seems extremely possible.

TheAstarion
Aug 26, 2014, 12:16 PM
Anyone who knows me knows I will always vote potato, but I'm 110% hyped for the triumphant return of twin sabers. And we can have zondeel on top of that without sacrificing subclass stances. Bouncer is the perfect class for me and my main, and it's going to let me play my main as my main, rather than a deadweight gimmick character who loses in every aspect of functionality to my RAHUcaseal alt.

The PAs are flashy, the weapons are mostly nice looking (the biosabers look almost daedric, it's great) and they have a PP niche. What's not to love? Give us all-class ones with a lot of tech and you can even discard boots altogether as far as I'm concerned!

You say that like its a bad thing... o 3o

Tell me what other weapon would/ can they add for the other classes?

Shoguns = thats already incorperated into the rifle
Laser Cannon = thats already (...)
Launch...... ALREADY HAVE THAT :D
The Golden Gun = Copyright Infringement

Whips? = I think I read somewhere that they couldn't integrate whips for some odd reason of it grappling or whatnot. Thus Wired Lance!
Shroud = I dunno I just made that up


Anyway the whole idea of this is to say that there isn't really much to give to the other two (Ranged and Casting) classes aside from having a tank/ airship for Rangers and Celestial Armagedon for Forces - their weapon varitles are limited and PAs condensed into weapon varities to assimulate other weapon types (Ranger)...

Melee just has a bit more flexiblity when it comes to 'styles' since it is not as direct as Ranged and Casting.

They can't use katanas either for that matter. Gunslashes are the only universally all class weapons and talis/rifles only go with techer and gunner because they only got one new weapon anyway.

I was saying that the only reason Techers and Gunners can use talis and rifles is because they only got one weapon otherwise (not counting gunslash). There's also the fact that those weapons were out before Techer and Gunner came out anyway, there's absolutely no precedent for them retroactively adding a weapon to a class.

KazukiQZ
Aug 26, 2014, 01:08 PM
@Skyly
It won't, just like Katana and Bullet Bow are exclusive weapons to Braver.

Also, Kondibon mentioned talis for Techer and assault rifle for Gunner as those two are already usable by Force and Ranger respectively.

Chacron
Aug 26, 2014, 01:09 PM
Rifles are also both gunner and rangers, but they can't use many of the braver's bows by themselves.

I think techers and gunners got talis' and rifles due to them only coming out with one weapon type when they were introduced and this was an easy way to work around them having a small weapon selection.

Potato.

I'm honestly very interested in jet boots. I've been told by a lot of friends here how they'd really suit me well, because of my character design, and my typical playstyle. Or perhaps how cute my character'd look performing the moves or something lol

I'm intrigued by the dual blades, but I don't know if I'll wind up using them very much to be honest. I enjoy the bow side of Braver, but not so much the katana side.

Personal preference and all.

Mega Ultra Chicken
Aug 26, 2014, 04:07 PM
Dual Blades look pretty awesome too. They're kinda like spell-blades, what with all the PAs involving slinging photon spikes at the enemy. And if BO can naturally use techs, then I could finally play Maz like a HUnewearl... again.

Achelousaurus

Yea.
I got Twin Daggers, I don't care much about Twin Sabers.
Rather give me something interesting like Slicers.
I shall count the minutes until we get a class that can use Slicers.


Oh look,another striking weapon.As if the game hadn't enough already.
My thoughts exactly.

Also, bring back the Shot please. Launchers are the same as before, well without the piercing by default.
Long straight range and a small aeo.

Shots have shotgun aeo (as well as quite long range) and I'd really like a - ah f***, scrap that.
As cool as it would be, SEGA would definitely screw it up and give you too high damage so that ranged could now kill half the map before melee comes within 10 miles of an enemy.


Maybe because they're a striking weapon?? I don't see why fighter or hunter wouldn't be able to use them. I don't really care for bouncer, it looks dumb but the twin sabers/dual blades look pretty cool.
Fighter and Hunter cannot use Katanas either.

BTW, Jet Boots are gonna have purely T-Atk based damage right?
Cause then I want Techer usable Boots and go Techer (for the main class only buff boosts) with epic Jet Boot damage (I assume it will be like Braver and Bouncer T-Atk will be a bit behind Force and Techer).

Metalsnake27
Aug 26, 2014, 04:18 PM
Idk, I was never a huge fan of force/techer to begin with, but this class seems interesting.

Dual Blades seems cool, I will try out the class for sure.

Aug 26, 2014, 04:29 PM
As much as I'd like to aboard the whole BOhypetrain ...their current skill tree just seems to be rather ..lackluster. There just doesn't seem to be much traits that would synergize well with BO/HU TS (which I intend to play as) ; the stances are just plain awful.

I'll try out BO nonetheless, more so interested in the upcoming revamps.
