Ditto. Overall I think those animation changes were needed, and look really nice. I'm glad Cold Beam's animation was updated, that was the one that was seriously lacking.

when comparing to other arch mages.
Sorry, but time to be justifiably pissy: Bishops should never outdps ArchMages on single target mobs. Sorry, but there's something fundamentally wrong with a class that can heal and control status ailments, not to mention resurrect 5 people every 30 minutes, doing the same damage as me when all I have to offer to others is damage boots in Meditate (which is pointless for anyone but Magicians), Maple Warrior (which everyone has), and Echo of Hero (which everyone has and only needs every 40 minutes).
I agree with Justin, ShiiKage, Nexon Korea has no clue what they're doing. At least they have Tespia where they can work all this shet out.
Bountyan Wrote:Oh, those skill updates are nice. Liking the Aran and Paladin ones. Critical damage is supposedly crap now anyway, so it's good that they're lowering critical damage but making Overswing stronger w/o Crits, I guess.
Ditto on the Aran updates. Finally Overswing's Double and Triple swing components were buffed by a substantial amount, enough to help offset the severe DPS loss from the nerf to the critical damage system. Can't wait to see what these updates mean for Arans in reality, especially when compared to other classes.

Paul didn't include them, but if you look at the Google Translated patch info page on Insoya (posted on the first page of this thread), there was clearly a change to Dragon Fury. Here's what it says:
Google Translated Patch Notes on Insoya Wrote:6. Evan's "Dragon Fury> Skill bug fixes and effects of the increase in horsepower trigger condition have been relaxed.
- MP holds a master skill is 40-95% at 42 days, you are playing Dragon Fury effect.
As we all know, "magic attack" in Korean translates as "horsepower" in English. Therefore, it appears the change to Dragon Fury is that the magic attack boost from the skill now kicks in when the Evan's MP is between 40-95%. My Evan is only Lv. 36, so I can't elaborate further from the perspective of a player who fully understands the efficacy of the change, so take it as you will. Hopefully that helps!
One final note: Lol @ Explosion changes for LOLFPs. 550% damage is getting very close to Paralyze...it looks like they're trying to give us Fire and Poison AoE mobbing skills, which is an interesting replacement for a Meteor Shower cooldown/mist training. Also, does anyone know the delay of Explosion in order to compare it to Paralyze? I'm curious to see if, on Fire-weak and Poison-neutral mobs, Explosion is the new best DPS skill for LOLFPs. It would definitely be quite a change.
