We lack buffs so our damage is low compared to other classes, and now they change Ignis Roar, one of our few skills that gives us attack, to force us to combo skills in order to get the ATT boost. Not a very smart move for bosses, as most of our other skills are not as effective DPSwise in comparison to Ring of Ishtar, which is our main bossing skill, and it is MEANT to be spammed as it is a keydown skill; doesn't blend too well with the whole linking skills together.
Also, that Spikes Royale cooldown sucks
Yeah, Mercedes (my main) got hit hard, and Wind Archer, one of my oldest and most favourite characters got hit as well.
From Orangemushrooms's translation of the notes:
Quote:Mercedes is not very efficient at hunting...So then they go and nerf my main training/farming skill by giving it a 5 second cooldown. Gee thanks.
Ignis roar attack boost was removed in return for some tiny temporary boost when you link skills. Gee thanks. I don't link skills, because most of the skills you are supposed to link are impractical in training situations for one reason or another.
Also from Orangemushrooms's translation:
Quote: Wind Breakers were too powerful. Therefore we reduced some of their damage.I don't see that WA were overpowered, they don't seem all that strong to me, though mine isn't funded much.
I was about to use the scissors sale to transfer old equips from my Merc to my WA; not sure if I should bother now.
