The balls of death I agree with, they add some spice.
He has other "I keel ya nuw wit 1 hit" skills though, and avoiding those and the balls, combined with the potion CD? Dumb no matter what way you look at it.
Also, having 9999 avoid should not be completely useless, nor should a character that can solo PB be unable to do more than a mere dent in a Normal mode boss HP bar before dying 10 times. I have 20k HP too, an amount not easilly achieved on a thief.
Also, did we not establish that Maple takes mediocre amounts of control and/or skill years ago? The very frameworks of the game denies that sort of gameplay, and it is a crying shame.
*Dodges a death ball, becomes frozen in place by Magnus' cheap skills. Magnus does a 1 hit ko skill*
*FJs away from Magnus when he does a killer attack. Hits a death ball*
*Repeat 5 times*
*Rage quits*
