Valefor.Prothescar said: »Have only done some quick mental math and a basic evaluation so far, but pending availability of DEF down effects gsword rankings should look like this:
1) DEF down Tenebreuse
2) STR/ATK Tenebreuse
3) Hatzoaar Sword +1
4) Borealis
5) Hatzoaar Sword
Axes are easier, NQ/HQ crafted only real good options.
Oh really? the def- one? Is it a good chunk of def-? I might just make that then if it beats str/att, cuz...*** flame geodes lol

If magian weapons didn't look so plain I'd be fine with it, but it makes me mad how they look.
And don't say dat swap! I wanna look cool for the world to see!

Might try making PDT- and evasion. RUN is good enough vs Magic.

I kinda like the look of the Coalition Sword.

That's very unpractical...Lunge is only 1 type of command regardless of runes, Idk if there's a way to place it in spellcast. Same for sea obis.

could do buffActive checks so it checks which runes you have active at the time of lunge

Anybody try soloing Suzaku on Run yet? Would the mass fire def null CS? i thought about it but no need to "test", between one for all and your 2hr cs is a bunch of 0's
but not considering those, your resistance should hold you just fine

The PDT gsword is simply good for capping out your PDT/hybrid, since it's currently unable to do so without it, atleast from the available gear i've seen.
Doing RUN/SAM, is there a decent WS combo i can use to MB Lunge with?

Wouldnt think it would be too hard, since there are other ways to deal with CS.

Does Lunge magic burst in accordance to the rune element you're using? Or is it just a standard magic burst?

I already tried Reso + Groundstrike, so far nothing, although if i'm not mistaken, it *should* make Distortion, correct?

Like all Magic Bursts, in accordance to the Skillchain Elements, and the Rune Element being used. If it's not a matching element, it won't MB

Resolution --> Ground Strike should be Distortion, other way won't work tho.

Power slash -> resolution distortion I believe always like to end with the biggest hitter...

Currently in a Crawler's Nest party. I noticed Pflug will reduce my Slow effect when I'm using Tellus (earth dmg/thunder resist) runes but not with Flabra (wind dmg/earth resist). It's significant at that, 4 minutes difference with 2 runes.
Not sure if it was said or not before.

What I've observed correlates with that. Dmg runes seem to affect duration while resist affect straight resistance. I've been resisting things like crab STR down and lizard EVA down entirely with Sulpor and Ignis, but Tellus reduced duration of Baleful gaze.

Hmm... do you think the full resist was due to Pflug or due to the elemental resist+?

either one tbh. pflug doesnt show "resist!" messages, so it's not possible to distinguish. it sounds mostly like using the opposite rune just adds less resistance than using the resist rune, thus causing duration resists rather than full ones. could also be coincidence

Or it could just be that they're not working as intended, and the wrong runes are affecting the wrong thing. We'll see if they fix it or leave it be
