True, Cannoneers didn't really need any nerfs, but I honestly felt that they were dealing more damage than they actually needed to do. Even with these nerfs, most cannoneers are going to be one shotting everything from level 10 to 80 at least.
Don't even get me started on the nerfs that Demon Slayers and Mercedes(es?) needed. I can't even count the number of complaints I have about them.
Honestly, Demon Slayers only really got nerfed in the Bossing department. They can still mob to all hell, and Demon Explosion wasn't really a skill to use anyway, as Devil Cry was vastly more useful. If I remember correctly, the old skill build for Demon Slayer on EF had Demon Explosion off to like...level 17x before you bothered with it. Plus with Devil Cry being only 20 levels instead of 30, it's overall more acceptable to use. With this nerf to Demon Explosion...it just solidifies it's uselessness. Devil Cry stays as the mobbing skill...and now DSes have a more average bossing skill with Demon Impact's nerf from 2000% to 1200% (400x5 -> 240x5). It still does 100% crits though so >_>
