I miss having to actually think. I'm referring to my poison mage and my crossbowman here. I'd train my poison mage using poison mist at monsters that were at times 50 levels higher than my own, so it only took a couple of hits to kill me. I couldn't just charge in, you know? I had to actually think things through first. That was enjoyable, and the reward of fast EXP amplified the fun. On my crossbowman, I couldn't hit up close, I didn't have much HP, and I wasn't very fast, so I had to utilize sniping spots and speed gear to make up for my relative lack of stamina and mobility. That, too, was fun. Getting powerknockback and using it to its full potential was the most fun I think I had in the entire game.
Today, it seems like everyone has added mobility. Who doesn't have some form of flash jump anymore? Hell, ranged classes can even attack up close. While it makes sense (if I shoot a crossbow at you from a close distance, it'll still fire) on a certain level, it takes away from the aspect of playing as a -ranged- class. And don't even get me started about how they ruined my poison mage. The one thing I enjoyed, poison mist training, they had to go and screw up. What used to be a skill that damaged based on an enemy's HP is now entirely dependent on one's attack range, meaning your mist is only as good as the amount of money you dump into nexon's filthy whore mouth. What a disgusting sham. What a sickening suckle pineapple.
