Combo Tables
I used class="wikitable" to get the general table formatting (thin borders, grey backgrounds on headers). Comments? Suggestions? --Konoko 02:00, 30 October 2007 (EDT)
Looks much better like this. I'm still questioning my use of colors in the tables. At the very least they ought to be changed to a paler hue, like the blue in the nav bar. Now to add a little more detail to the combo effects! -Pythe 14:42, 31 October 2007 (EDT)
I'm thinking about combining the combo attack tables... I'll throw an idea at the bottom here, after I sketch it out here... -Pythe 15:13, 31 October 2007 (EDT)
Combination Attacks
The highlight of the dual blades power set is its implementation of a "combo system." Most attacks lack a secondary effect (like Katana's -Def or Dark's -Acc) but the set makes up for this by adding the ability to chain attacks together to create an additional effect at the end.
Brute, Tanker, Scrapper

Combined Combo Table
This seems reasonable, if hard to read. Perhaps seperate each combo into its own table? Also, add icons. -Pythe
