Patch: Tespia 1.2.190

Really Nexon, wtp are you doing over there? Are you really -that- unprofessional? But I guess we all know the answer to that question... -.-

That statement has merit due to much of their mishaps and lack of care which is obvious in GMS. But are you seriously calling Nexon "unprofessional" because they're choosing to make a character the way they want for their game? Honestly? They're "unprofessional" because they don't want Shadowers being equal to Night Lords in the amount of DPM they put out?

*notices it's Devil*

Oh.

I don't understand why all classes have to be equal in every regard (or just equal in DPM, especially). If all classes can do a crapton of damage to any boss, what would be the point of different classes... People even want Bishops to be great attackers during bosses. Come on. Support classes are support classes are support classes.

An argument I will FULLY support is that Nexon needs to create more instances where all the different classes can cooperate and be required in some way or another. As it is, the main call for Shadowers right now is HT (and that's at most one really welcomed per run). Mages have no great calling for anything they can do besides selling leech. If Nexon designed several things that created a popular need for all classes in many different bosses, then this game would be much better.

Raising the damage of classes is all fine and dandy, but it's not a balancing factor at all in my eyes. We already have all the attacker classes we need. Nexon needs to start doing some REAL improvements and design new content that includes all the different classes for the uniqueness they can demonstrate. The only part of these skill buffs I'm really happy about are the Paladin buffs (a move in the right direction, but much more is needed) and the DrK Berserk buff (skill needs work). Many of the other buffs are nice, but they weren't needed. The change to MM is just going to fulfill egos, create new e-pride and more dramatic flame wars. In my eyes, BM and MM are the exact same thing now. Both very dominant attacker classes that can provide SE. One uses Hurricane, the other uses Strafe + Snipe. That's the only difference that's even apparent now... Nexon should have improved HOW and WHERE Snipe can be used, not just pimp it. Why not create more content that requires or greatly favors Snipe somehow? Why not make the classes shine for their differences rather than making us all do the same damage. I don't get it.

My points:

Stop changing skills.
Start creating content that brings everyone together in their own, unique way.
Devil needs to stop crying all the time.
