I never said doing cap on AB was easy, I realize how difficult it is to get to those ranges - but in the funded world of maple, plenty of people with over 250k range exist. The problem is that it's possible at all. Just like how "normal" maple players will never dream of being able to solo Empress, 99.9999% of people will never be able to hit cap on Angelic Buster. But a boss like Magnus all but requires you to have Angelic Buster there, doing more than any other class is capable of doing.
In GMS we already have issues with the enormous difference in the amount of funding your everyday player has compared to dupers, hackers, and people who drop multiple thousands into this game. The regular damage cap kept this difference reasonable, if you can call 28 million damage per second reasonable. Angelic Buster makes the previous limit look like child's play.
I knew three phantoms in Khaini alone who had over 500k range. I know two Mihiles with over 400k range. How about Zero of Windia? Or Proxied in Bera? Plenty of people with unreal ranges exist. It's going to be a problem when she hits our servers.
The point of giving Angelic Burster higher caps was so it would be possible. I don't see a problem with the people who put the time and money into it, disregarding where their resources came from, being able to those caps. But my point is there's always been people like that who will aim for the top, and get there, but I don't feel that that makes the class itself bad, in a way, because it's not easy for everyone to do that, it does take time and money, and it'd be a bigger problem if everyone was able to. I don't think the fact that a few people can do that merits nerfing how strong it could possibly be.
The larger gap is a problem, yes, but, comparing new class Angelic Burster to all the old classes is like comparing apples to oranges. Plus, I wouldn't call it outrageous that the class known for, and seemingly designed for, damage is, shockingly, good at dealing damage.
