»Mystina, may I ask how many finishing moves you reverse in order to self-skillchain?
I need 4-5 4 is risky due to need a second or 2 to get tp, but i very rarely self SC without all 5 since i can get them very quickly. depending on the situation. there is a REASON i don't need them yes i understand you can still do it with 3-4 but again, i play dnc differently. and it has worked for me perfectly.
The rest of us are using 3-4.
What this means, is we require fewer finishing moves and as a result need to use fewer steps.
Overall, we're using fewer job abilities and thus experience less JA delay, meaning we're spending more time meleeing and as a result, our white damage is higher.
Additionally, because we require fewer finishing moves, we can actually use other buffs more efficiently such as building/climactic because we have more finishing moves available.
No, you don't
Need reverse flourish merits to self SC, it does however make it much more reliable, and faster to set up, requiring fewer job abilities, and this losing fewer attack rounds.
