Falcon Blade Trick

[Naos Stulos]

Just a FYI for those theory crafting. You can't get a ton of attacks dual wielding two falcon blades and using the Falcon Hit skill. The game maxs you out at 3 hits per turn.

I was drooling over possibly doing 5 hits per turn with two Falcons using a Falcon Hit.

BOO to you, developer sir!
I say BOO!

Oh, and since a dual wield Falcon Blade hit does 3 attacks anyways for small MP you might as well just equip the strongest swords you have. Falcon Blade just acts like a free Falcon Hit.

Falcon hit will always do 2 hit, either you have the falcon sword or not.
EVERY sword skill will have an additional attack if you have a sword in your secondary hand, but it's strength will be that of a basic attack.

Dual Falcon blades are a trap.

They look cool, and doing 4 attacks at 0mp is awesome, but the damage starts to fall off once you get to the 2nd half of the game.

To top it off, they make using skills virtually pointless because you'll almost always do more damage with normal attacks. Then there's the part where MP is super easy to replenis in this game, so you shouldn't be stingy with it.

I switched him back to 2H, and haven't looked back.
