This actually has more DMG than the Musketeer Falchion. The MP+ isn't too bad either. If you have a solid Accuracy build on your armor then i would use this Sword until Ifrit's and then Dual Wield the two if you are subbing Ninja. Very underappreciated weapon if you ask me.

It matters not how strait the gate, How charged with punishments the scroll. I am the master of my fate: I am the captain of my soul.
well the mp bonus is nice for elv or galka since even with capped mp merits astrals ect... it still sucks ure dmg dont come from ure weapons near as much as ure spells so ill take 20mp and the dmg isnt that bad anyway
I wonder that too. From what I've dug up searching everywhere, it appears you have to have the Mercenary rank of Corporal. Then you can purchase it with IS points; unless I'm mistaken.
My question was "how do you gain merc. rank?" I believe that it might be through assaults. Since I have not done any, then that may be why I've never advanced.
you can get up merc ranks by doing more {assault}s, the little quests Naja sends you on. There's actually a point system that goes into it, but I'm kinda hazy on how many points it takes per rank.
Here's how you can gain points anyways: sucessful assaults for the first time in a new area for each new rank: +5 the same assault in the same rank: +1 i.e. if you do the walls assault for the first time in a new rank (starting off at PSC is the same) = +5, if you win, everytime after that you beat it, 1 point is added.
The quests are (I'm a SP, so I'll just go up to that rank) from PSC (Private Second Class) -> PFC (Private First Class) is getting her two imp wings.
PFC -> SP (Superior Private): go out into {Caedarva Mire}, {Wajoam Woodlands}, of {Bhaflau Thickets}, and find a {Warhorse's Hoofprint} (this is kinda annoying to find), click on it, then talk to Naja again.
The rest, I have no idea on, cause I'm somewhere in the middle (the dude in the company can tell you your general area by asking him about mercenary assessments), and I'm no expert on this, all I'm giving you is from what I've heard from multilple ppl around, and what I've learned.

They ain't got nothin' on us Blue Mages. We kill monsters, eat their souls, and we don't even use barbecue sauce. And we're still hungry.
unless you are a pure back row blue mage, there are better swords imo, unless it has some special effect. personaly i wish the kilij type swords were stronger, being that they look so cool and are blu only. if nothing else they could put blue skill or something on one.
