Dragon Strike
If you compare that to other skills, say, Brave Slash and Ice Strike:
Brave Slash
Ice Strike
Finally, the skills that were nerfed affect the roll of the job a lot. Brave Slash was the Hero's ultimate attack. Ice Strike (and Thunder Spear if it was nerfed too) are the I/L Mage's (not AM) main attacks, and Dragon Strike is a mobbing attack of several (Energy Orb is better damage assuming it follows the 9/10s rule instead of 2/3s rule). Do you understand what I'm trying to point out here?
And Arrow Rain/Eruption and Dragon Strike were the primary training skills for Archers and Buccaneers prior to this change. I believe you're trying to say that the nerf to Ice Strike is more significant regardless of how small the change is because it is used as a primary attack skill. If you even bothered to actually do the math, you'd find that 5.52/4.50 does not equal 18%. You're ignoring the fact that Ice Strike had a significant damage increase for a very insignificant speed decrease in comparison.
Ice Strike had a net loss of 1.06x damage. Arrow Rain/Eruption had a net loss of 1.28x damage. Which is more significant?
