Does anyone know what the sage version does for it? Level 10 already reduces enemy accuracy 50%. Does the sage version add another 50%? that would seem a bit overpowering against physical classes.

Maybe it's another 50% of their already reduced 50%(for a 75% total)? which would seem a bit extreme still too.

    At lvl 11 Sage, it's [insert big numbers everywhere] then reduce accuracy by 50% for 10 seconds. Sage version will increase accuracy DEbuff duration by 50%.

    So for 15 seconds they have -50% accuracy.

    Hope this helps.

    Project a powerful wave of sand onto a target. Inflicts Earth damage equal to base magic attack plus 165% of weapon damage plus 1702.7 and decreases enemy's accuracy by 23% for 10 seconds.

    Sage version reduced enemy accuracy by 50%.

    Badly written I'd say...

    Lvl 11 sandstorm already gives 50% decrease to accuracy so that sage line description is redundant. It's a typo any way...

    More powerful than Sandstorm Level 10.
    Critical hit rate reduction period extended by 50%.

    This is how PWdatabase describes Sage Sandstorm, which sounds to me like it either halves the critical rate of the victim, or extends the duration or the accuracy reduction.
