[Module] Big Bang | Delays & Ranges
ghostofhalo Wrote:The only thing I could think of is Brave Slash is using the wrong delay since it's the same skillID as Brandish is pre-BB. I was hoping someone who could extract would notice all the activity here and would double-check for us. Fiel could have listed Brave Slash's delay as 1140ms because the delay variable "braveslash" (assuming it's the same name from KMS) is 1140ms although it might still be using the variable "brandish" which has a value of 840ms.

<shrug> We'll find out soon.

Nope. I look at the skillID for braveslash, check "action/0" to get the delay class, then go to where the delay classes are, grab that delay class, sum the absolute value of all the given delays, and output that.

Delays aren't always accurate. For example, Explosion has a very short cast time, but it includes a dummy weapon attack before it goes off. We'll have to do some testing.

Of all the delays we've ever seen, only Explosion has one that's unexplainable I believe. I tested it in GMST to be 1440ms Normal (6) unboostered I believe. Something ridiculously long and slow, and you could only Teleport once during it or something, making it even worse.

Lose ACB and HH (reducing you to 1 viable attack skill) and then the arguement of "Blast should do more damage than Brandish/Brave Slash" would hold water.

And Brave Slash is not a mob skill when Enrage is active.

Heavens Hammer is a viable attack? Since when can it kill monsters or not have a cooldown? Anyway what im saying is Heroes have a way to super power themselves for bosses making blasts high damage % a moot point despite all the other bonuses they could have. Few bosses have weaknesses so the whole elemental advantage shtick is meaningless. Oh i suppose Pianus and a couple of Zakum arms account for all the rest of the time Heroes are superior right? Oh right it doesn't because Heroes can hit many arms at once then crush the body into pebbles with Enrage.

People always underestimate the power of decreasing several monster's HP to 1, but my point is that Paladins have several skills and are able to more easily adapt to different situations. Heroes have only one an are no where near as good as adapting to more situations.
It also makes sense that a Paladin would be weaker against neutral targets, especially because they are a defensive class and the Hero is practically pure offense (with the exception of some shared skills). Logically focusing on defense and offense would produce a warrior that does less damage than a warrior that focused on pure offense.

Anyway...

I love it when people pretend that there are no elementally weak bosses.

Hm lets see...CWK bosses are meaningless since weakness/resistances are so jumbled up in the fight. All of the bosses in Neutral only add to the idea that theres a huge lack in elementally weak bosses. Can a warrior even use their main attack on Munin and Hugin without dooming the squad from mass seduce? So we are left with 2 squad bosses, Targa & Scarlion of which have elemental weakness of one isnt even that good (ice is weak).

Make any excuse you want. It wont change the fact that there is a good number of elementally weak bosses. And even if there arent enough that you care about, that isnt a good excuse to make Paladins superior to Heroes (especially with their defense buffs). If the problem is a lack of bosses that are elementally weak, then complain about that and demand a greater variety of bosses. Its much more logical to fix the problem rather than attack factors unrelated to the problem.

Edit: also keep in mind that a later patch will buff most area bosses, and possibly some WT bosses if nexon isnt too lazy about it.

As you've shown, there are elementally weak bosses. I just parsed through all mobs and found those with the following requirements:

- Be a boss
- Be greater than level 100
- Have some sort of elemental immunity, strength, or weakness

Here's my list:

At this point, I'm just sharing my findings and waiting until tomorrow for some solid proof of the attack speed when I can test it.

I guess the brave slash in BB-patched GMS will remain 840ms.
Brave slash is changed in KMS 1.2.355,I don't think BB-patched GMS will use this version.

This times infinity, you are absolutely right.

I just tested it and it's the same speed as Brandish. All Heroes can breath a little easier now.

Hmm, I got about 6x Slashes in a minute with a Normal 6 Sword. But I only got to try it once before it kicked me off. So it might be ok.

I should get 71 without booster right with a normal sword right?

Yes. If it was 1140, you'd get 53 in a minute.

Finally found the answer, but the quest for truth is often more interesting than the truth itself. I will give a spoiler alert, though. I found a bug!

This utterly baffled me, so I went searching for answers. I checked the results of my regex and it turns out it was spitting out an additional 300 ms garbage value at the end. But how is this possible? It shouldn't be doing that. I then changed a simple ".*?" to "\d+" and it worked perfectly. Turns out ".*?" is too permissive which allowed the query to find 3 - 4 lines instead of just one, singular line. So it stole delay values from other delay classes causing it to spew out wrong values. How disheartening. I did do some preliminary testing before calling this method stable, but the ones I tested on were unaffected by this bug. Damn.

I sincerely, really apologize for the mistake and for causing such an uproar. Mia culpa. The correct delays are now posted.
