Advanced Charge Blow mastery?

In the description of ACB, it says +52% Weapon Mastery at level 1. How does that work? o__o I thought base weapon mastery was already 50% because of the 2nd job skill. I'm pretty sure it can't be 102%...

Someone explain, please?

[quote=Viaje]Except it's slightly incorrect.

ACB's mastery doesn't actually replace Weapon Mastery's mastery.
So, for example, you can't skip Weapon Mastery and end up with 94% with just ACB.[/quote]

While true I can't see many people skipping weapon mastery, anyways. It's just a way of thinking about it. Honestly, if the skill descriptions were a bit more accurate this would be a nonissue.
So, for those of you who skipped Mastery to master Enhanced Basics instead... Don't rely on Advanced Charge for all of your mastery-related needs.

[quote=demonzero14]Advanced Charge's mastery takes the place of your regular weapon mastery. Close ranged characters have an inherent 20% mastery that both your weapon mastery and Adanced Charge's mastery will be added to. Thus, without a charge you will have 20% + 50% = 70% mastery, or with a charge, Combat Orders, and maxed ACB you will have 20% + 74% = 94% mastery.[/quote]

I wish they had a reward system for posts like this. Thanks a lot, very clear on what I was looking for.
I'll go for ACB once I get Zak preq. done.

@WolfPak:
I say ACB because it only requires 10.
Yes. When you have any charge on, 94% mastery is applied to your range. Making it work on all attacks

[quote=George105]I would also like to know.
It says additional mastery so I have no idea.
All I know is that it's 94% mastery at level 12. My range is 10k to 10.6 or so[/quote]

Yeah.. I've seen the number 94% thrown around a lot with Pallies, but I don't understand where they get it from
I'm just debating what to raise first; Blast or ACB. I'll end up getting both, but I want to know what's best first.

Another rumor I heard was the 94% mastery applies to all attacks. Is that true?
