And since it's probably too much to ask of Nexon to have Bishops gain more EXP in parties in general, how about having a bigger HS range and having AR arrows that can go on an angle? That'd be nice.
Watch Nexon make Bishops go the way of Dragon Nest Priests and have them summon holy relics that remain stationary while attacking everything around them and possibly pinning them to the spot. And Doom forces an elemental weakness on monsters that cannot be turned into snails.
Yes, there's Mechanics, but screw them, they have other viable ways of attacking and I don't think they use that shock thing during most conventional boss fights anyways.
Support should not equal pure buff/healing machines, and I think that's the main problem with the MapleStory Bishop design in comparison to support classes in just about every other MMO. Every other 'support' option that Bishops have just absolutely sucks in comparison to their buffs and healing. Said buffs might not even mean anything if the Bishop's buffs happen to override a stronger buff, which was absolutely terrible design for a support class (that's probably not the case now with Ultimate Bless which may or may not stack with all other buffs as far as I know, but it definitely was in the not too distant past especially with Heroes and their Rage, and who knows what's going to happen down the road).
