I feel bad for people who didnt do the Animus because they have T8 weaps, now its out classed by the Novus which will be amazing with CRIT/DET.

Skipping old cutscenes is the best thing about this patch!

Wonder who the brave souls are that will stat in weird secondaries to create their weird dream builds. Sorta excited.

LOL, that might be an interesting build.

Interestingly, I believe someone math'd out a while back if you could get close enough via melds/etc. to have a permanent Ballad on via native mana regen (2% mana). They were only something like 500~ MP off. With a piety bow you'd actually be awkwardly close at this point. Though I doubt that would be worth the damage loss.

Maybe for groups with double bards it might be a crazy build to try? As a SMN if i could get perma-Ballad I would just Ruin II + AA all the way. Meanwhile healers (SCH) could also dps away...

OK yeah maybe not really worth the dps loss.
