Blade Bash

From FFXIclopedia, the free Final Fantasy XI encyclopedia

Job Ability

Notes/Description As of the 10/19/06 update, Blade Bash is no longer a Ranged Ability. Its range is now the same as Weapon Bash and Shield Bash. Blade Bash does not deal damage and you will not gain TP by using it. Stun activates 99% (like other "bash" types) and Plague activation rate is 60-70% Each additional merit lowers its recast by 0:02:30, with a maximum of 4 additional merits for a 0:05:00 recast time. Merit states a Great Katana is needed, however it seems to work with any 2 hand weapon.
