Who misses transformation skill for bucs?

Just saying cause they took of transformation in the revamp. That was one of the reasons why bucs were made. >.<

My common equips give all of my class over 140 speed and 123 jump. If you're unaware of the stat changes for the mount, don't comment on my post.

Why make a BUcc if you only want to see your nx when thier core skills require ST.[/quote]

Because ST didn't have a 720 second cooldown pre-Big Bang, and it wasn't maxed late in a Buccaneer's career either.. Why should one specific class be covered visually 90% of the time? People keep picking on the fact that people who bought NX for Buccaneers are idiots, but isn't it poor game design which makes it so that NxX cannot be seen. Buccaneers are also Explorers, and so people could have had NX for another character, switched to main a Buccaneer and then become dissapointed. Many options as to why someone is not an idiot, and as to why the concept of ST's visuals were a poor decision.

[quote=xXlinkedXx]I disliked the fact of people complaining of not being able to see their NX (most knowing full well they'd be in xform for the majority of the game) and still buy NX items.
But I do miss the orb both xforms have, the way they sit in chairs, etc.

It was "NX for the poor man" in a way. It was also cool for the unarmed sense of fighting it gave, because you don't see your knuckle, and the gender sprites for both boy and girl buccs. I'm not sure of the mount form follows it.

And I'd rather like to see them at least bring back normal xform as a type of summon buccs can use (similar to corsair's summon skill), or as an NX knuckle (my little transformation? o.O)[/quote]

It's a completely viable complaint; other than mounts, I don't believe any class actually covers your NX. Certain mounts aren't too covering anyways, I believe the Mechanic is the most covering. I mean honestly, yea, they knew that NX wouldn't be seen most of the time. But when it got to the point where you were in ST 90% of the time(It used to be on a much longer cooldown), every Bucc looked the same and it made your character static. You couldn't really swap NX styles if you're on timed NX, and if you weren't your looks went unnoticed quite easily; I was in LHC parties where it would consistently take them 30+ minutes to notice my NX. Note that they would stay they didn't notice it due to ST, which is why they didn't notice it before.

Why should a certain class face an aesthetically unpleasing factor they cannot get over? I don't see the point, if it was like a BaM's Aura that would have been much better as it doesn't actually cover up their character completely. That makes much more sense than Transforms visuals did.

Edit: I believe Wind Archers also have a Transformation-like skill, but they're a Cygnus Knight. It's perfectly justifiable for them to have disadvantages like that for the benefits they have as a class, or the benefits they provide to the account.

Energy Charge should activate super transformation. The mount is NOT good enough because it reduces your jump to 120.

Not really... well, sort of... It's simply one of those things that seem pleasant only in the past.

Regardless, Good-bye Female ST sprite... you will be missed...

We have it as a mount, which is perfect.

It was clunky and annoying to use. I don't miss it at all.

My only problem with it is that I can no longer glitch to sit on the air using Transform+Visitor's Chair, otherwise it's not that bad. It takes some getting used to, but it was quite worth it giving it up for the superior power we received.

We still have it as a Mount, so that's good enough for me.
I mean, we all know how awful Super Transformation was as a skill, so it's better this way :c
