I was kind of disapointed with this new ability, as we already have aura steal on a 5 minutes timer.
Until I tried and stole Mighty strike from a moblin in limbus.
So we can now steal any 1 hour abilities that are not instant like benediction or astral flow (from mobs).
Need some testing in PvP :)
Now thieves can hundred fists, manafont(lol) or even soul voice !
Have you stolen crazy effects yet ? Please post your testings.
New 1 Hour - Larceny - Effects We Can Steal

New 1 hour - Larceny - Effects we can steal
Any idea if it prioritizes SP over less desirable buffs ? I can't tell if SP are stolen over other buffs but we can always aura steal first to minimize chances of stealing undesired buff.
too bad we can't steal instant sp. I'd love to see my thf with a dragoon pet :) i am still working on getting my charecter back after getting hacked so i cant play i am just woundering do the new 1hr share a recast with the old 1hr abilitys?
No it doesn't. You can use both at the same time.
And good luck with your char

Akihiko_Matsui said: Thief In addition to the effects that can be stolen by Aura Steal, Larceny will allow you to steal monsters' special abilities as well. In the case where a monster has several enhancements active, the special ability will take the highest priority for stealing. When the effect is stolen, it will be removed from the monster, and the effect will be granted to the player that stole it. Even if you steal the ability from them after it has been used for a bit, the effect duration will be reset when stolen, so you will gain an effect duration that is the same as if you used it yourself. However, there are some exceptions. Astral Flow cannot be stolen. This is due to the fact that the specs for Astral Flow used by monsters is different than that of what players use, and it is a type of ability where the effect is elicited upon use. One more ability that is treated specially is Meikyo Shisui. While you will be able to steal and use Meikyo Shisui from monsters, it will not be possible to stop them from using their weapon skills. This is due to the fact that the behavior of monsters with this ability is different. Camate said: "Steals one beneficial effect from the target enemy. * New special abilities cannot be stolen."

There was a translation error in the North American update notes on Monday that you might be getting that information from. The NA notes had it listed that SP abilities couldn't be stolen with Larceny, when in reality the notes should have said that new SP abilities couldn't be stolen, leaving the old ones able to be stolen.

Thanks for the info! Used to getting all the news without having to leave ffxiah, guess I missed some of it lol o__o

You mean like when you get marches?

I remember in the notes a long time ago they said SP will take priority when using the ability. I believe the only non-instant SP you can't steal is the SAM 2 hour. Said something about that JA working differently for mobs

Thanks Houppelande :)
Anyone can see strategies out of this new ja ? I can think of pulling a monk beastman near a nm ??? in dynamis, have it hundred fists with a ws and steal it before poping the nm. New ADL Strat, yea ! :) Well, if you can transfer the stolen effect to another person, then yeah, it would work.
Hundred Fists Mighty Strikes WAR/SAM... Mighty Strikes Hundred Fists MNK/WAR... Hundred Fists Blood Weapon Souleater DRK/WAR... Mighty Strikes or Hundred Fists NIN/WAR... The possibilities are endless... siskotaru said: » Thanks Houppelande :) Anyone can see strategies out of this new ja ?

New ADL Strat, yea ! :) I thought Hundred Fists gives you delay -80%, which is the cap.
But then again, I was only joking. I can't see this being a viable strat :) Fun thing to try at best. I thought Hundred Fists adds its delay reduction and then applies Martial Arts after the fact, ignoring the usual cap. So an interesting question would be whether or not Dual Wield could replace Martial Arts for thieves who steal from monks! ...and whether or not we could get them to let us squeeze into our augmented melee hose +2 for the steal. ;]
Edit: ah never mind then, had it backwards. I'm just gonna throw this in here:
http://wiki.bluegartr.com/bg/Hundred_Fists Doesn't work on Absolute Virtue just tried to steal hundred fists. Nothing
Necro Bump Detected!
[42 days between previous and next post]So does anyone know how 100fist works with DW?
You know you can Dual Wield on Monk to find out, right?
