Junction a Mageseeker (in General)

Just an idea, but how about if you junction an archer with a mageseeker to a Hal, he switch to a Mageseeker as well instead of ELB? So they can focus fire same target. ;)

How about you junction the mageseeking ability to an Elbow? That would be too cool.

Keep in mind changing from ELB to Mageseeker would lower damage quite a bit.

Why not simply change the Weapon a Hal uses depending on the Minion it is Junctioned to?

Minion Has a MSKer then so does the Hal

Minion has a AxBow then so does the Hal

etc etc. The basic fall back would of course be the ELB if the minion has no Ranged Weapon. Just a thought to spice things up.

a hal with a exbow could be utterly broken. you would be infusing a massive amount of hit compared to 0 nw for a weapon that negates all damage to any tank hit. I dont think hal should ever have any xbow junctioned. Now that being said a chakram/msker would be alright. That is if the chakram is ever added to the high end weapons like it should be.

I do not see a problem with someone junctioning any of those items.
Seeing that a Hal trains Archery. No help to X bows unless my understanding of Archery is incorrect. And a mageseeker would have a lower chance to hit.

I believe it would be a good change. Because it would give more rock paper scissor combinations.

Think he is asking if you could do it ATM and make it work. The answer is no. Junction is for armor only not weps. If it could junction weps I would put a Axbow on a Jig hehe.

I know it doesn't work now, it was a suggestion to see what people thought of the idea. :) Mostly because I'm strongly leaning towards a new archer team and wanted to run all mageseekers, but I also might toss in a Hal, and we'd be splitting damage. So it almost forces me to use ELBs instead.

Changed my mind.
Did not know it was only armor. I would agree broken.

But would be in favor of a new amulet that did just the weapon.

Could limit Hal to be a true archer, only weapons that are affected by Archery can be junctioned. That'd solve the crossbow concern.

I think it's the exbow that's broken atm, not the concept of junctioning a Hal with one.

I'm not saying that is wouldn't/shouldn't be balanced appropriately. Remember the ELB on the Hal was rescaled to fit what the admins thought was proper for it's level. At any rate again it was just a thought :-)
