Somehow, I feel disappointed after seeing the gameplay footage in the thread in General MapleStory. So what- it's just a familiar who follows you like other summons, except has equips and acts as the spellcaster for you? So the gameplay really isn't that much different from a normal mage; which was what disappointed me. All this really seems to be to me is a broken mage with critical and amazing skills.
However, there are some great ideas in here to change and improve the gameplay formula behind mages despite being a bit game-breaking seems like it would be interesting to try out. This is clearly a mage that can actually boss- Killing Wing looks like it could be a skill with excellent single target DPS. Not to mention this thing has crit. Having no ultimates is pretty sweet too. These guys have amazing mob capacity, good as if not better than the original mages. I'm also loving the art for this class. Dark Fog" and the Dragon animations look AMAZING. Still looks worth a play for me.
And I agree: I'd like to see for a makeover done to Victoria Island and early maps of Ossyria. The art style change is blatantly obvious, and what's old and new is easily seen; and a bridge would need to create a proper balance in the game.
