Hermit huh...

I don't know what you people are on about.
All they did was add some new attacks to third job.
People always complained about how terrible avenger was, so they added 2 new mob skills and a rush skill.
All it does is make 2nd and 3rd job not suck so much ass anymore.
4th job Night Lords still play the EXACT same way, except on mobs, they use that exploding thing/band of thieves thing instead of avenger.
It's nowhere near as drastic as the bucc/sair changes.

I guess I'm the odd one out for liking Avenger, then... its range does kinda suck for PvP but in training it's perfectly good, and Expert Throwing gives it pretty good damage too.

Whatever though, it's not like I'll be able to afford skillbooks regardless what they do, unless thief revamp includes bringing back real mastery books dropping.
