Dual Blade Skill Build Changes

I guess the question is about 4th job.

After big bang, is there any significant changes to when Dual Blades add their sp to certain skills?

Final Cut now adds 25% extra to slash storm, bloody storm, fatal blow and flying assaulter. (passive effect for just maxing the skill)

Chains of Hell now has a built in critical factor.

Mirror Target has a built in shadow shifter (25% chance to completly avoid an attack) and when maxed gives 60% extra wep and magic def.(Again passive effect) , ( need confirmation from any kms dual blader that the passive effects work for you and not the mirrored target~)

Monster Bomb is actually pretty decent O.o Went from a 60 second cooldown to 4 sec cooldown.

And for sudden raid...well...I guess extra burn dmg every 30 seconds will help add a bit of dmg to some bosses...

So how would a dual blade go with making up a build? I know thorns would be first most likely. But after that I really have no clue? So any advice would be helpful~

BTW: A little off from what i was saying before about monster bomb being useful. Is it now viable to now add it into the bossing attack rotation in late 4th job? Such as doing monster bomb> chains > fatal> chains> fatal> repeat? I know fatal blow's % dmg got serverly reduced though.
The invincibility frames of chains will most likely make it so you avoid the bomb dmg from your own monster bomb. Seems like a good tactic for late 4th job, but more info would on this would be helpful.

does sudden raid get a cooldown ? :O just curious

Can't read Korean, but I'mma go out on a limb and say it does. 60 seconds at Lv1 and 30 seconds when maxed.

NEED MORE INFO NOAW! Omg 4 sec cooldown for monster bomb x3
And the mirror image thing. What the hell? ;D

Yea it seems like a lot of classes are getting a version of shadow shifter xD But that 25% avoid and 60% increase to both defenses could now be life savers at boss fights (since defense actually matters lol)

And yea, max sudden raid has a cool down of 30 seconds. Come on, you really think nexon would forgot to nerf that when they nerfed all the mage ultimas =P

Not somewhere I normally look but since nobody was kind enough to make a full list instead of listing parts here and there, this will have to do http://www.basilmarket.com/forum/1699535...r_up.html# .

Found it with just a bit of googling, but from what the guy listed mirror target "(passive 25% dodge, 60% physical/magical def.)" sounds like the puppet will be dodging around and comes with extra def. It doesn't seem like you'll be getting that shadow shifter effect unless it somehow stacks with mirror image.

Well I assumed that you got the shadow shifter + def up effect for yourself since final cut has similar properties. Since final cut gives 25% extra dmg to the attacks I listed ( i missed a few), even when final cut is not active, I drew the conclusion that mirror target did the same thing. However I can see your point, so...

Any information from any kms dual bladers would really be helpful xD

BTW, heres the link where I got the info. Even if its from basil, the info from this thread is golden =D

Well big bang just got announced. Might as well bring this tread back up instead of creating a new one.

Anyone got any other info as of right now? I rather not wait and find it >_>
