Wow 19 pages....I haven't read them all, but I only have small comment to make, so I guess it won't be a big deal 
.
Honestly, I hate it when Nexon gets people's hopes up by saying lots of different classes will be needed. Granted, their intentions are usually good - they'll make things weak to certain elements or whatnot - but their designs always have the flaw in that they're built to FAVOR, say, ArchMages or Paladins, but don't REQUIRE them. Now I know a lot of you don't like when classes are required, but understand this: on basically every party quest out there so far where it would be NICE to have an ArchMage or something, that spot can usually be filled by other quick-thinking classes.
In other words, I believe Nexon will make this PQ nice for ArchMages, etc., by having things like elementally weak monsters and mob control, but in the end high levels in other classes will be chosen over ArchMages because they can do the job a little worse, if not just as well as the AM, but are more wanted for whatever boss fight comes at the end.
