So Why Battle Mages are in the game?

The fact that there is even a glitched skill is what concerns people, sure it might not change much but this is something nexon is supposed to be watching out for, it reflects badly on their programmers to skip over something that noticable, how long has resistance been out and it's been a problem since?

Tell this to the archers who waited years to have their 3rd job stuff fixed. Oh wait, I forgot if they broke it again or not. Seriously, do our skills still DC us? Haven't played my main for a little while.
