You can interrupt any skill that puts the user into charging status; magical or physical. If I had Dancers & Bards it would cancel performing, too. But since I'm not using them there's no point.

I don't know what is going on really. But why not call it "Distract", or just "Interupt", or combine them and have "Disrupt".

very cool sounding skills either way.

I chose that name because it's the closest thing to the skill from FFX. I wanted to just use the CT00 formula, but I don't want the hit rate to be based on faith.

OK I'm planning a revision to the new Knight job. As I was studying knights in other FF games I quickly realized that equipment breaking is unique to FFT. Most of the other games use only stat breaking skills. Even FFTA did it like that. FFTA2 has the equipment break skills, but spread over several different jobs. So I decided I would remove all of the Knight's equipment breaking skills. Now he'll have the 4 new skills I created plus the 4 stat break skills. Additionally, I'm revising Magic Break to do MP damage based on the Knight's MA+10 and to hit based on faith+50. It will now compliment the Power Slash skill, and both will require a sword..

As for the now unused equip break skills, I decided that I would give them to Meliadoul with a boost in hit rate. Also, to complete her set of *break* skills, I modified Icewolf Bite to function just like the other equip breaks. All 5 skills will now use the knife hand effect. It makes a really nice break sound that fits great. Her remaining skills will be modified into new sword skills for pure HP damaging goodness. I may be inclined to modify them into Dark Knight skills since they all have pretty dark effects.

What do you guys think? Also, about Delay Attack, since I want to keep that name do you guys think I should go ahead and make it use the CT00 formula?

Well it can't do damage but it lives up to it's name of delaying an attack though.

sadness can be turned to delight.
A nation destroyed cannot be restored,
the dead brought back to life."

If I could just find the formula on the ISO it would be very easy to nullify the faith part of it and change the MA part to PA. I think that I'll do that. Any thoughts about the changes to the Knights?

I think equipment breakage is the main thing overshadowing Thieves.  if I ever make my own patch, I'd cut them out too.

Maybe give them to a special character and make them 1range only. So I have to say I approve. Haven't gotten around to looking at thier new skills yet thugh.
I changed jobs and that has made all the difference.
