We haven't seen the Zakum mechanics in this server, so I would't jump to conclusions. If it's something like Balrog's falling skulls, then it would actually require timing and *gasp* skill to beat a boss in MS. I used to do *a lot* of Balrog expeditions for the medal, and most newcomers would simply die within the first minutes because of the skulls. I would rarely die, if ever.
It's not based on luck if they do it right.

I dunno about the increased damage, cause we don't know the exact mechanics yet, only guiding ourselves through screens.
Skill cool downs are awesome. Many MMORPGS have skill cooldowns AND potion cooldowns all the time. They're the best MMORPGS I've played. In contrast, MS is too simple.
That's also, assuming they pull out nicely the skill cooldowns system. Skills %damage should be really adjusted and the cooldown times carefully placed to ensure skill rotation and avoid having maplers using Ctrl to attack.
I love the idea, having 1st job actually last more than 15 minutes? I'm in.
