Sword Lann revamp ideas?

[Mello]

I dunno if he's even getting one, but it'd be nice.

I'll start, ideas:

A new dodge (Obvious, hopefully Kay and Lann get the dodges switched around.)

More DMG output than fiona, by making him faster, or just give his weapons higher DMG, he is after all supposed to be high DPS (yes I know he is high DPS on paper).


Feel free to post your ideas.

If we make revamp threads, trolls will come.

I'll say it right now, trolls can suck my testicles.

I really like slip dash though, it fits with sword lann I think. I expect Kai to be more agile and flexible, so he should be handspringing out of the way. As for higher damage, perhaps give him an add on to an existing smash that also has invincibility frames, so that he can get some more damage and possibly a stun in while an attack comes in. Perhaps after Twin Blade (LLLR) add and attack that is similar to The Moonchopper's attack (where he spins while flipping through the air). Can even get the attack from defeating the Moonchopper if ya like.

Lanns need either more DPS or more survivability, cuzz they kinda fail right now (both of them) for serious raids

Gliding Fury needs invincibility frames, and Slip Dash needs more invincibility frames. He should get a Triple Dash. He also needs higher damage, his speed is perfectly fine. And finally a higher critical rate. This is all he needs.

Perhaps a third fury? Blazing Fury would be kool, although this would affect Spear Lanns as well.
I would say having the Sword Lann skills ( Such as thousand Needles, Pummel Storm, and Double Crescent ) have either:

1. a higher %. Since an Evie's Firebolt at rank 6 gives a 73% boost while Thousand Needles only has a 27% boost.
and/or
2. A Critical hit Chance increase. This way, Sword Lanns can perform more Criticals, which may unleash more Furies.

Btw, I made that Blazing Fury name up XD. I thought seeing a trail of fire would have a nice effect right after a lightning fury.

[Eyrion]

A higher rank with Gliding Fury should affect the damage of Lightning Fury and Furious Seven. (And I do like the idea of a Blazing Fury).

SP should build up faster.

If the last Fury in a Furious Seven hits a critical you should be able to follow it up with a Gliding Fury>Lightning Fury>Blazing Fury

[Scarlet]

Lightning fury should be useable after more lightning fury crits, so as long as you crit, you keep lightning furying!

Sword Lann isnt DPS. There is nothing fast about dodging and attacking within small windows between the boss's attack.


I've had a few ideas:

) Infinite slip chain: Instead of going Slip > Nimble PAUSE *repeated* why not make it Slip > Nimble > Slip > Nimble *til stam reaches 0. This does NOT make him fully invincible, it just makes slip dash useful for 3 hits+ or long lasting hit frames.

)Removal of Lighting Fury: When Gliding fury crits, you can use Gliding fury again.

)Increase of weapon's critical: Lann is rediciously crit based its not even funny, yet it takes a lot fully enchanted gear to fully utilize critical. For some reason WILL and Critical hit dont show on the cirt #, and lann's attack is so low he really NEEDS crit to do damage.

)Gliding Fury is invincible: I rarely get to use lann's only damaging skill (quite literally ONLY) due to getting my face whacked whenever I use it. Needs to be invincible.

)Give Lann a boost in running speed permanently: I've never played a game where the DPS runs as fast as the tank and the giant. Literally any MMO there is gives the DPS guy a boost in movement speed.

)Buff Gust Sting or increase its charge rate: Does anyone even use this skill? Its output damage for the ammount of time you sit there doing nothing is really disappointing.
