All player characters will be infected with a virus, the only cure for it drops off a 24hr spawn abyssea HNM, will drop antidotes equal to the amount of people in the alliance that killed it. If the virus isn't cured within a week those still infected "dies" (gets their character deleted forever.)

SE will say in an interview shortly after that they "did it for teh lulz"

I'd use it as long as we don't have to use DW axe.
In all seriousness I would, too. Too bad Vorpal Scythe is a crit hit WS already, so they probably wouldn't do anything anyway. :X

Yep, and I've been trying to prove to people that WS mods have changed for certain jobs in the past. Instead, I'm being told they haven't, so it's like I sound crazy. I'm trying to find the update notes where they buffed SAM WS as well as others.

I speculate blm af3 hands to have same stats as teal saio as eradico mitts are the same as a genie weskit's 7 mab, eradico and af3 would both remain useful then. Eradico for aga3 and am2 and af3 for tier 1-5. Its only a theory though.

Rated down for a theory >.>; funny thing is I was nearly right on hands which have int and mab just didnt expect quite so much as to totally beat eradico.

Or Reflect.
I wouldn't like reflect... knowing SE they would probly make it a double edged sword (all spells casted on the target would be reflected) and if that is the case healing would be impossble without items... that will make it's usefulness very low.

Hopefully BST gets a Bird pet, it's the only family type they're missing.

You know BLU's getting new spells. I honestly don't know what could beat Magic Barrier, except for a better Stoneskin spell.

SCH hopefully will get some kind of storm spells that give double weather or something.

Here's hoping RDM gets a Lightning based enfeeble(maybe... stun?). Since we already have Earth(Slow), Water(Poison), Wind(Silence/Gravity), Fire(Addle), Ice(Paralyze), I expect us to get a lightning one now too.

Doubt it, but might be possible if SE surprises us with one. Could see it being Confuse (shock to the head, durr), or something else that makes more sense with RDM.

Even though it'd be useless, I want RDM to get Virus.
Obligatory RDM spells are: Cure5, Fire4, Blizzard4.


I'd love to see this, but they'd have to give WHM something to compensate.

Would like to see support DNC get a boost. Waltz IV with a much reduced timer would hit the spot, as the timer is way too high and Waltz III just doesn't cut it anymore. Would also like to see something done regarding DW's part in the delay reduction cap so my Charis Necklace can get some use again.

It's wishful thinking, but I want to say WHM gets Holy II and/or Banish IV along with Banishga III.

SAM gets another Store TP, but SE puts a cap on Store TP to where a 5-hit setup is the best (meaning no 4-hit setups are possible).

Doubtful on Cure V. No way to Raise III.

Why is that? We said the same thing about Regen III and look what happened.

I think RDM and SCH should get Cure V at least.
