We need a different name for this weapon....

I disagree. The stick is the funniest weapon type name ever.

Second round of nerf has come. I won't go in specifics, but the Link Skill now gives the following effect:

Lv. 1: 4% boss damage, 4% critical rate and 3% maxHP and MP
Lv. 2: 7% boss damage, 7% critical rate and 4% maxHP and MP
Lv. 3: 10% boss damage, 10% critical rate and 5% maxHP and MP

Well that's horrible.

Ill still take it, since level 2 gives 7% boss/7% crit, and who cant use more hp/mp :D, its decent enough to warrant replacing hayatos keen edge over

[VerrKol]

Well that's horrible.

So it becomes a direct replacement of Phantom's link for most people. I can live with it and gladly take my free 10% boss and 5% hp/mp bonus.

looks like beast tamer is going the same route that CMS angelic burster did and being nerfed to the ground
is it too much to hope we dont get the nerfed nerfed version cms is getting?

Well that's f'ucking terrible

[Gymleaders]

I mean, I'd much rather have 30% boss damage, but this isn't too bad I guess... It could definitely be worse, like, Eunwol's link or something else that's useless.

[Kirov]

7% boss is better than nothing I guess but.. *grumble*

[Razmos]

Can't complain really, it's not 20%.. but 7% is still something, and the 7% Critical Rate and 4% HP/MP is not bad.

If they had simply lowered the amount of boss damage, it would have sucked majorly, but adding critical rate and HP/MP sweetened the deal somewhat. It will be nice when they stack up with the other link skills.

EDIT: Oh hey, I just remembered I get 3% crit from my Marksman character card. 3+7+15 = 25% free crit! I like that, it's a nice clean number.

Shrugging off my Explorer's Critical Ring is looking more and more appealing.

Yeah. With that link skill decSE only gives me 4% crit rate, while the crit damage can be overcome through good potential and high w.att of a reinforced ring. I don't want to get rid of it though. :(

It just "feels" like the Ring is contributing so much to my damage (via Minimum Critical Damage) even though I know it isn't because the math says it isn't, at least not compared to a relatively low %STAT Ring.

I know what you mean. Especially when you don't crit 100% of the time the gap between crit and non-crit damage is HUGE. The difference is in the millions for me...

[Arrol]

I'll still try her.

[icephoenix21]

Might as well make it if you have the space for the link skill (at least until something better comes along)

[TrueBlitz]

7% boss and 7% crit is still good for me. I can get 100% crit on my Dark Knight thanks to this.

[dowie]

it'll put my 99% crit to 100%
It's not bad

[Tigeon]

I guess my pally being at 94% crit has payed off~ I can take out my phantom link skill and still get 100% crit with sharp eyes.
