[1.2.381] The Wind

CarrionCrow, being a 200 Khainian NL yourself, can you shed some light on this for me? I genuinely am confused why there are NL's talking about this Archer update as if it's the death of NL's or nexon's deliberate attempt to make NL's worthless (or more worthless than the already are as some would say).

EDIT: So you're saying that the NL's I see that are very strong and effective bossers are just like that because it's a mindset issue? The class as a whole is broken, yet damage whoring rich kids still pick it gladly and overwhelmingly more than any other single class? That seems hard to swallow if NL's really are as bad as some claim.

I'll shed insight in addition. I'm 18x myself and mid-high end funded. The reason why uber funded kids make NL's is because they don't do research on the class and only carry on memories of the class being "godly" back in the day. Furthermore, it's a brainless class to play and "power" can be acquired "easily" due to the massive amounts of LUK gear lying around.

So please, define what makes a class 'better' than another in your eyes because to me, damage is a significant factor, survivability is another one.

I've stopped caring about survivability since there's something called wheels and HP washing. However, a good class, in my opinion, is a class that is able to have good skill synergy. If you look at the warrior updates, the skills compliment each other really well within their own classes. Same with the mage and archer updates. And then you get to Night Lords where it just feels like a huge mish mesh of thrown together skills without a half ass thought.
