This patch certainly had some interesting things in it.

>Fixed using love potions with Alchemical Rain dripping hot wax from Candle of Luluwy on to targets.

Definitely bad news for me or anyone using spirits to farm Hero Cheese or Magic Fruit. Guess I'm locked out of farming them for the time being with Kai. I at least know what skill skill I'll be raising after I cap tactics. That skill being performing. Once I get that skill high enough it will be business as usual.

Speaking of tactics, I finally got around to picking up the 4rth god reward, the Sasumata, from Jure.I'm a bit surprised this weapon isn't as hyped as it is. It's the best weapon for training a couple of essential melee skills because the weapon does a whopping 0 damage. That means you can bash on one single enemy forever and raise the polearm skill, eye of mind, evasion, greater evasion, and tactics. Although at my level of tactics the only thing giving me skill ups are gauge attacks but building up gauge isn't a problem with that weapon. Finally found the weapon that will ease my grind to cap tactics.

Now that I've had some time to play around with this weapon, I'm now under the impression that a two hand polearm character is probably the easiest character to build and bring up in power.

>Gravity Accel
>Giga Gravitation
>Graviton Buster

Played around with the gravity attacks and there might be some potential here. Gravity Accel gives some decent buffs and eventually you learn Gravity Sphere as an attack which scales off of constitution. It costs 5sp, fairly cheap, and was doing around 20-30k damage in the void on floor 600 or so.

Giga Gravitation is a costly attack, takes a lot of mp and a bit of sp I think, but probably the most interesting. Its damage range is supposed to be all visible targets but I could of sworn I was hitting targets I couldn't see. So maybe it's kind of like meteor in that regards.Not only that but its damage increases the more you spam it. I was doing 30k damage in the end to all targets around me. Giga Gravitation scales off constitution and magic capacity. My magic capacity is only at around lv 300 so I'm left wondering what the damage is like if I actually leveled magic capacity seriously.

Gravitation Buster is a nice attack. It's a gauge attack that triggers off of Gravity Sphere and acts like a breath attack. I was able to do 150k+ damage to a handful of enemies all at once. Very nice considering again, void enemies.

A gravity character would be an interesting range option for a melee character that doesn't like spell stocks or for some reason doesn't want to use magic.
