We won't get Monkeygrip because it would be problematic to make new animations for 2handed weapon skill animations(in all of them, you hold the weapon with both hands, unless you're galka)

Quote: You have to look at the outline though, in the front image you see a blade wielding fighter and what looks to be a burst of magical energy emanating from his hand. Then in the back image you see a female fight that seems to be infusing the magical energy into her blade which would suggest a mystic knight/spellblade like class. We have a spellblade class already. It's called RDM. lol... Offline

Also even if you're 2hing a weapon, you hold your 2h in one hand when casting or using a JA, during the arm-spread-pelvic-thrust motion

Airships also, mayhaps thats how we get there. I hope so. Kinda tired of the laziness of teleporting. I can easily sacrifice the time inconvenience for fun factor. Airship battles please! Offline

How are they gonna fit GEO and new job gear in Dynamis. They got away with it by retconning dynamis by saying BLU/COR/PUP mercenaries assisted during the crystal war even though the Aht Urghan Empire officially did not get involved. Wonder how they'll retcon Dynamis this time.
There's a damn polar bear that's gonna rip yer face off!

Could also be a water dragon thats coming out of the ocean and is giant as hell. We still lack a water based Wyrm, we have an Ice wyrm already.

From looking @ the pic, my bet is on Airship arrival, but also seems like there will be some type of ferry like to the islands in CoP (looking @ trailer you notice small chain of tiny islands offset from main island)

Quote: Why is making new animations for a new job problematic? Every time a job gets a new ability, they tend to make new animations for it, so why would this be any different? I meant like, how would Freezebite or Ground Strike look like if you're dualwielding greatswords. |
