Bolter's Roll (COR Lv.76)
Increases movement speed for party members within area of effect.

Caster's Roll (COR Lv.79)
Enhances "Fast Cast" effect for party members within area of effect.

And the best part IMO. XI= 10min.

Does anyone see us outside of a mage pt?

I noticed they didn't select a trigger job for increased roll strength.

Yes.
Because even as epic as a 10min Evokers on an 11 will be...
The other Caster's Roll makes us PERFECT for PLD/NINs and tank party.

And having attack and offensive roles for a DD Party that run the option of lasting 10 mins is just as nice.

Only thing we don't have is Haste, which is a big ONLY.

Well... BIG question I want to know is...

Bolter's Roll (COR Lv.76)
Increases movement speed for party members within area of effect.

Does THIS stack with Crimson Legs/Hermes?
Also...like many other movement speeds... does it wear off the second you take damage?

If the answers are yes...and then no...
UNREAL for Kite Party or soloing.

I'm sure the Brd will be doing that, but it is nice to do if no Brd is around. (and I was thinking buff wise not spell)

With brd's gratuitous amounts of MP...

I hope haste doesn't fall on brd's we already have enough to do.

Thats True. Also I wouldn't mind throwing up Haste during my 10 min. between buff's.

So new Tank party looks like this now?

Would suck to bust on either of the new roles. Imagine being /whm support and having spells take as long as they would if you had hasso up lol.

Or running like you're wearing full dusk set.

Movement could be COR, and the Fast Cast would be obvious.

The fact that there are 16 jobs, and these abilities start at 76 with 3 level increments is kind of a negative though.

haha i know what you mean. already had to knock a few rolls off my macro row. guess its time to start another row of the less useful ones XD. only thing that keeps me skeptical of my theory is that we are getting rolls in increments of 3 (76 bolter's, 79 caster's) so that would only leave room for 8 more rolls after those.

Fencer WAR Lv.45 Increases rate of critical hits when wielding with the main hand only. Grants a TP bonus to weapon skills.

Now this would be great for Meripo at Lv.90. As long as COR's are welcomed going DD and not /WHM Haste machines.

I suspect CORs are going be Bust-ing all over the place, getting all greedy and doubling-up every chance they get just to hit that "XI" now, when they probably should just leave it alone. :p

It might turn out that in practical terms "XI" isn't a COR buff at all, but actually a psychological gimp on the job. ^_-
