Elemental Weapons Bonuses Return

I was actually hoping that I made it apparent that I understood that most A/M's skills do not use the fast speed from the Staff. But like you said, explosion still does factor the speed into account. This is why I emphasized over and over again (and used normal attack as an example because I knew that the fast weapon speed did not affect most A/M skills) that no matter how minute the DPM change would be from the fast speed of elestaves, that it still affects them. I am not comparing BaM's and AM's. You still fail to see my motives. I am not arguing for any one side.

I am just asking that people change their rhetoric when discussing such topics.

I'm pretty sure that elestaves being fast was not intended only for AM's; like you said, most of their skills are unaffected by the weapon speed. So why have a fast staff for classes that don't take advantage of it. If this was really intended only for AM's, Nexon would have created a restriction for BaM's from using it. But we are a mage class after all, and not allowing us to equip a staff is ridiculous.

OP or not, each class serve different purposes. There are attackers, and there are support classes. What purpose BaM's serve is a different issue so let's not delve into that. DPM is not the only factor as to deciding if classes are balanced or not.

Doesn't fast works on CL too?
I can't remember though.
