It has to be a standstill mostly because if it wasn't; you would either win by defeating him or the enemy wins by defeating you pretty much bypassing the need for a sealing spell or technique. I suppose you could also go from on the verge of defeat and blindside the enemy into a seal to win.
Sealing the black mage automatically should make legends stronger than adventurers how and why exactly?
IImaplers Wrote:Legends should ALWAYS be (slightly) weaker than their adventurer counterparts because adventurer players have been around longer and deserve to be stronger. And don't say AMs had their "time to shine". How many basil threads did you see in the past month titled "OMG OP-ED AMs"? Don't even complain about Infinity being such an awesome skill. It is only good for ~45 seconds out of every 3 minutes, and that's if we're not dispelled within that time. DoT is and always has been overrated for being so slow and magic-cancelable (for most of it's skills). To top that off, Evans have party skills and they are actually helpful.I actually have seen no threads of AM's being OPed on basil that could be for a varying degree of reasons which would be quite obvious when explained to you. On to the ageism factor; this is surely wrong. How old are you? If you are younger then I am I can turn this onto you pretty quickly and prove why it shouldn't even be a reason on your argument. I'll explain it though, in case you are older. Giving benefits to a section of classes just because of their age, is basically segregation while not providing benefits to other classes. Cygnus have something similar like this, but it's quite alright since it affects all your classes equally when it's finally active except for the whole UA which doesn't seem worthwhile IMO. So in conclusion, there should definitely be nothing given to Advs that could potentially make them stronger intentionally just because they're an older classwhile not doing the same for the other classes. I wouldn't give an 90 year old man(with possibly alzheimer's or delirium) all of USA's nukes to make him stronger, why would you give an older class all these buffs to make them stronger?[/QUOTE]

So you're saying Evans being on top in 1v1 AND mobbing AND party is fair?Did I say get rid of ADV classes? No. I just didn't think it was worthwhile to have them stronger then Legends is all. Evan's in top of supports? What's this Bishop-type class I keep hearing about then? The one with Holy Symbol and Adv BlessO.o
If Legends were only released and destined to be weaker then ADV, there would be no point in releasing; likewise for The Resistance and Gaiden classes since ADV's should be stronger in your opinion. How fun would this game be with only 3-5 characters depending on your view of the original adventurers. I can pretty much believe Maplestory wouldn't be where it's at now if they kept adventurers only.
