Yeah, SE adds 140%.
Yes still compare arch mages with that. No one takes them to major bosses lol. So we should really be looking at solos here. Say a bishop soloing pap and an arch mage doing the same. The difference isn't going to be much. Yes the elemental wands give a little bit of a boost for arch mages, but its still only very very little.
Bishops at major bosses, who's going to say no to that? They provide heal, HS, dispell, resurrection, mob control, even bless lol. As for arch mages, there is absolutely zero reason to take them on a boss run (except if they are friends), who in their right mind would want meditation at bosses lol. They do like 10% damage of any other class using onyx apple? Thats why people here are saying there needs to be a good party buff for arch mages as there is for bishops if they are to be balanced even a little.
