Since I stopped playing temporarily for classes, I see MS focusing on this aspect even more since I stopped, especially with these newer updates coming(Evans in particular..and the eventual bandwagon for them. Back when Evans were released I didn't care for damage, over the years though I now do care.). If you didn't notice I realized I had no point for saying that hahaI get what you're trying to say man I do. I love the changes to Evans but it should be obvious that other mages need a buff. However, in light of all this Evans SHOULD be number one in DPS(on the mage spectrum). We have the only mage 1v1 skill and it SHOULD be the strongest. Early job Evan's are insane like Joe said and needs a small damage nerf. However, later jobs I think they're perfectly fine=\ I don't really see whats wrong with them being this fast and strong. They could easily just make A/Ms slightly below them and everything would be fine. Hell I'de be fine if in dps with a F/P using Mist Explosion to be number 1 that wouldn't bother me. However, in terms of DPM and just flat attacking. Evans SHOULD be number one. The "support" skills in this game are an absolute joke. I played FLYFF a long time ago and their support class right from the get-go was support. IIRC you got things like haste, attack speed, damage buff etc. I'm not saying take haste away from Thief or even give bishops haste, but at least SOMETHING that makes them -real- support. Not just "HS PLEZ".
Do you really want one? I wasn't getting at me being creative and creating these skills. Just want to see more effort on Nexon's behalf in trying to create newer ones that actually stand out more. Sure some skills can pull this off, but there are a few skills similar to one another. For the classes with the similar skills, I don't see the harm in passively giving them the boost just to keep some skills unique to the classes that came out with that idea. I personally would love a passive, party affecting Imprint instead of the current one to recast. Same idea as aura's really, but affecting the entire party without having to cast and proximity issue to keep the skill that had that idea. Suppose this is burrowing from other skills as well.. so ignore those haha
A Bishop passively having a 20% bossing dmg bonus to it's party members, would surely be wanted and appreciated and give the class another use. This skill hasn't been done! I'll leave that for now.
Pretty much no. Maple Warrior, all classes have it so doesn't apply for what I'm saying. ADV Blessing brings more to the table then just damage unlike ADA and Imprint. Give Imprint and ADA something alongside their damage bonuses to differentiate the two. I would suggest new status/boss affecting attributes that bring something new alongside with their dmg bonuses.
Prob went a little over bored near the end. Didn't mean to have it sound like to remove all their support skills. We were talking about Bishops receiving a party damage skill, thus by doing so removes it for Evans. While I'm bossing, I only stop attacking to recast my buffs and look at the cool downs of one skill(SS). We never use Mist during boss runs due to people eating away at it's effectiveness. So really our only support skills are 20% avoid(Gets re-casted like all my other buffs before timer runs out), Imprint and SS when I notice the CD is down. Removing Imprint..means we stay attacking longer then what we do currently. No 400ms-900ms(Or W/e it is now) wait to cast Imprint and that time is then spent on attacking. Most of those other support skills aren't very great compared to Imprint, is that agreeable? So really Imprint is one of the bigger party bonuses at an Evan's disposal, to remove such a skill is comparable to a lesser degree of removing ADA from BaMs except BaMs have that shielding skill which also makes them wanted for parties. See my point? Does anybody see my point is a better question I suppose lol
...Maybe I shouldn't talk ever again LOL Should stick to lurking unless I actually think before posting for once. Damn impulses.
