Character Card System

ok, i tested this with the bucc card, speaking of, @takebacker: i recommend you find a chair and sit, what comes isn't pretty.

for starters, bucc set effect is your level multiplied by the rank, mine was B, so 2*195.
if you have done the empress might quest, this counts as 10 extra levels, so i was actually gaining 410 (2*205) instead of 390
the bucc bonus displays in your range window as added to your range, so a class with 0% mastery and 0-1000 range would look like this: 410-1410
here comes the worst part, your damage is calculated from your REGULAR range, not the BUCC'D range, so any skills and whatnot are actually running from the 0-1000 range
once your damage has been calculated, THEN the bucc bonus is added on top of it, example:

class with range "410-1410" (without bucc 0-1000"
has a skill which is 200% damage and ignores all pdr, also has 1.5 min&max crit multiplier

(0*2)+410 = min damage possible
(1000*2)+410= max damage possible
(0*2*1.5)+410= min critical damage
(1000*2*1.5)+410= max critical damage.

so this means...
...that a level 200 bucc would, at the BEST scenario possible, be an increase of 1050 points of damage

conclusion: buccs character deck effect SUCKS, and paladin's/I/L is probably the same, but even worse
conclusion #2: nexon hates pirates and pallies, I/L too i guess.

edit: apparently, the increase in damage from pallies DOES get multiplied by skills (follows the same rule of the empress might thing), it's:

rounded down, then added to your range, and from then on the new ranges are used for calculation, so comparing a level 200 pally vs a level 200 bucc, the pally wins if after skills, crits and whatnot, your multiplier is 5x or more (they still suck hard though)

No clue how to go about restructuring my decks, then.
