Nope it's for both Thieves.
Cactuar Wrote:Yeah, but we only take 50% damage so it's really closer to 750% reflected. 520% reflected with Greed.
It probably reflects the number, not what you actually take after stuff like Meso Guard is calculated.
Like how my old CB took a visual 3800 damage from Himes but only recieved half of that.
And Assassinate IS NOT a Shadower's main attacking skill. :| Even with its old stats, it still had the 8 second charge up time.
900%/4 mob Boomerang Step is far better regardless. Also considereing how the pickpocket formula was changed, and now the entire Meso Explosion skill was changed, it could prove to be a useful skill.
Meso Explosion doesn't seem to run off its own "mastery" anymore. It has a set damage %.

I hope that's how it works. I've always visually seen half the damage.

Yeah, but now it's worse than it ever was IN ADDITION TO having the backwards ass charnging system. Hopefully ME does the fabled 180% per 1 meso, but I'd be happy even with per10 mesos.

I dunno, my old CB was back in 2006. \o/
The new meso explosion looks like:
1 meso on the ground, regardless of value = 180%. One use of the skill can blow up up to 20 dropped mesos and hit up to 10 monsters.
If that's how it works, pickpocket + savage blow + meso explosion = 3600% AoE damage every couple of seconds.
Hot, no?

Liking the +6% on orbs for Combo Attack, but what I want is a faster slash brave. Really.

Cactuar Wrote:... WOW. So Shadowers got nerfed to hell. Yay. We definitely needed it.
I never played a Shadower for maximum DPS. Even though I was a stat hoar, I knew in my mind that other classes are still far superior with the same amount of funding.
Shadowers are mainly known for avoid, survivability and fun. I'm completely fine with these changes since I don't want a millions of bandwagoners with no control making the real shadowers look bad.
Fiel Wrote:- Band of Thieves now attacks each mob two times for 230% damage.
If I'm reading that correctly, that's far superior to the previous 390%. 460%x6 is fine with me.

JoeTang Wrote:Chain Lightning should be able to bounce between monsters until its hits are spent. i.e. if there's only two monsters, it hits them both five times.
That's actually pretty cool and reflects the 'chain' even more.
Although paralyze would still be more efficent seeing as it hits both front and back with a freeze duration.
The aoe mobbing/freezing ability of paralyze really puts the current chain lighting into question...
Not to mention its damage stays consistent.
FrozNlite Wrote:Oh, and I'm still curious to see how the Demon/Summon combo pans out with ArchMages. We now have concrete data about the DoT effects, but whether or not the skills reset mob elements and make them weak to a particular element is still unknown.
So the archmage's really had their summons switched?
*needs to see vid to verify*
I wonder how this would affect the quest line/completion status.

That's nice. It's like having a second boomerang step. However, I don't think that's how it works because that'd make no sense. Also, 2006 CB here too.

Nexon made Dual Blades, anything makes sense.

Still waiting for them to release a skill for I/Ls so they don't only do less single target damage than F/Ps, but also less training, and more pot burn to boot since our skill doesn't freeze but theirs does.
It's like they took every pro I/Ls had over F/Ps and gave it to them.

Well, at least i/l archmages with elquines has to count for something.
Although with a mob paralyze, f/p wouldn't even need the summon anymore... >.>

A 3 hit summon with freeze won't do anything if I/Ls can potentially create mobs of 10.

Lol, guess we'll have to wait to see if there are any more adjustments...
F/P is looking to be more superior with stronger 1v1/poison training/mob freeze abilities.
