To the 99 of players not making kanna for whatever reason

I ask you, nay, I IMPLORE you, to at least TRY Kanna, 1/4 of the JMS players I have heard talk about which one they prefer (granted, I only heard 4 speak of the matter) say they actually like Kanna MORE than Hayato, and I know at least ONE of those hadn't even TRIED Kanna, so you should give Kanna a try even if you'd rather make Hayato instead, if you were going to delete a char for Hayato, then you can just delete the character EARLY to try Kanna, and if you don't like it, then just delete her for Hayato,
If, you hate her because she's like Demon Slayers, sure they're alike in some major ways, but they are very different in almost every minor way (she can telecast + mastery, and she's basically completely different outside of the core mechanics, her buffs, and gereral playstyle is different outside of the whole lash + fury thing, she doesn't even gain SP in the same WAY (apparently its from her summons, not her lash, or her summons on TOP of her lash), her focus on summoning, all those summons that appear when a mob dies, and if you hate her because she's delaying hyper skills, and you're waiting for them, well she gives you a THING to do while you WAIT, so there's not really a real reason not to try her. Also, if you don't feel like trading in your gear for mage gear, you don't HAVE to fund it to give it a try, so you can try it BEFORE deciding if you'll bother funding it, or maining it, or even playing it again after you've linked it. And if you don't want to try it because you don't like mages, she's VERY different from your traditional mage, she's got good 1v1 dps, and she's not mobbing OR support oriented so much as she's bossing oriented, and she plays much faster than most mages I think. She's got a TON of HP, like, higher than your average warrior (without whatsthatskill, battle mage is built like a shad hp wise, and like a theif MP wise in 1st job/ early 2nd) no magic guard, or wands/staves, she has average support, not based around it like Bams or Bish, but not terrible at it like Archmages) She's designed for bossing. (and by the way, Hayato is different from other warriors in the same way, so you can't assume you'll like or hate hayato just because you like or hate warriors respectively)

[quote=ox0Shad0w0xo]Wow you're so determined lol. I like all of the characters I have though. It's not simply about having card/link mules on my main account. I also make characters based on if they look fun. I've seen enough about Kanna to know whether or not I'd like the class. She looks okay, but not enough to replace one of the characters I already have. So if they give us a higher maximum then I'll consider making her, but beyond that I won't be playing her at the moment. If it makes you feel better though, my gf will likely try it out since she's nowhere near 18 characters yet, so I'd probably end up helping level it for her since she's pretty nooby when it comes to mmo's lol.

Also, why are you so adamant that everyone play Kanna? Her and Hayato have plenty of hyper as it is.[/quote]

Some things look fun but aren't. Some things look boring but are fun. You should actually test a class on a mule account before deciding if it is actually worth playing, rather than judge it on whether it LOOKS fun. That's the whole point of the saying "Don't knock it till you try it"

[quote=juarmo]Then make room? you SHOULD be able to have enough slots with 1 main, 6 card mules, and all 9 link mules (assuming you're using mihile as your empress mule and using jett's link, or using a separate character as your empress buff mule but NOT have the jett link, and have 16 slots, used, with 2 slots left, enough for hayato AND kanna, at least as link mules, and besides, you can really only maximize the bonuses effect on ONE class (because you can only focus COMPLETELY on playing one character's strengths or covering their weaknesses) besides, you COULD make another account to try it to see if its worth deleting one of your characters on your MAIN account to make one, even if you don't have the card effects empress buff, and shared storage, you can still TEST the character, and if you like it, then you can delete another character to make it on your main account. Besides, I'd say that since her card gives boss damage, that its kinda worth deleting one of your card mules to make her.[/quote]

It's not that we do not want Kanna, it's that we want Hyper Skills and the Evolving System first.

I am probably going to delete my AB for Kanna, since the link skill is good and I only have room for 1 of them

[quote=ox0Shad0w0xo]I'm skipping Kanna unless they increase our maximum character slots. Skipping Hayato too, so I don't care if she's more/less fun than he is lol. Too many characters, not enough room. and before someone says make another account, I don't want multiple accounts just to try a class as the new account won't have the character cards, empress buff, shared storage, and link skills that I have on my main account. Too much hassle for a character I'm only moderately interested in lol.[/quote]

Listen, I respect that you're passionate about the class, so please respect that I have very little interest in playing it.

I'll probably be making one just for the link skill/character card effect.

Pretty sure not everyone will make a new character, despite Nexon's attempts to revitalize this game.
