Inner Ability Confusion

I put this in the Night Lord section because I would like to know the what kind of inner ability I should aim for being being one myself. However, I also don't have a few more questions about inner ability in general. I haven't used this (semi) new system we have now.
1. How do I get my inner ability to legendary?
2. How do I lock lines I want to keep?
3. How does the new honor system work?
4. How important is inner ability to damage output and range?

If someone wants to briefly explain how it all works or link me to a thread that explains it I wold be very grateful. I've googled it but I keep getting year old results with mixed opinions on whata NL should aim for in terms of inner ability. Thanks in advance for any help.

I'm still not really sure. I was reading some other related topics. Check out the posts. Have you personally tried SI + Attack Speed (IA) + Green Pot?

[quote=Spirateual]If the cap speed really is 2, why would mazz say that going past 2 increases his attack speed? and also why would tuki use mpe green pots and speed infusion gloves if he's an nl? and why would bleve get attack speed +1 ability if he could reach speed 2 with booster, dsi, and mpe green pots? That's the only reason why I would assume attack speed cap is utter bs and doesn't really exist.[/quote]

[quote=OmgItsMazz]There is no 'ultimate' speed cap, I've personally tested it to go down to at least -3.[/quote]
[quote=Anthoy84]MPE is only -1, so you'd be at 1 after Booster. Decent SI will bring you to 0, and the Attack Speed IA will bring you to -1.

I would still say get both if possible. If you get Green Pot + SI, the Attack Speed on the IA would still make it even faster, right?

No, but you do need the green potion from Monster Park Extreme (to bypass the soft cap on speed) to benefit from dsi or IA attack speed. That's what someone explained in one of the posts about Speed Attack.

[quote=aznstyles]Crit is probably most important imo cause you dont really want to be cubing for crit but attack speed is really good too[/quote]

This is my opinion too. 30% crit in IA is so epic because it clears up several lines of potential for %atk or %boss or %pdr...instead of having to save lines for crit.

Night Lord's easily get 100% critical rate without the source from Inner Ability, but yes critical rate on an Inner Ability is a good choice in general for jobs with low critical rate.

In general I think 30% crit chance is the best overall inner ability you can get.

1. Get to Legendary after you get to Unique randomly. (Rare > Epic > Unique > Legendary: like always)
2. Lock lines by clicked on the line that you want, it'll show you the "locked" symbol.
3. You gain honor by picking up badges or special badges(from bosses) and leveling up. There are also Special Badges given during events like the current Attendance Event.
4. Inner Ability can give you the only source of Attack Speed outside of skill so pretty important.

1) Honor Points and NX Circs although I do not know the likelihood of either turning to Legendary
2) You simply click the tier or tier&line(s) you want to keep to lock them once (You'll have to keep clicking them to remain locked after each reset)
3) Same mechanics basically.
4) If you obtain lines such as +1 attack speed, boss%, raw attack, or buff duration (mainly DBs would need this one), it can potentially have an additional boost to damage output
