What needs to be changed to fix the game

editing: lost half of thread due to "glitches"

I am making a list and providing solutions to some of the major problems with the game and particularly its classes.(the most important aspect of the game)
Maplestory's jobs are still very much imbalanced in many different ways. There have also been negative changes to the game that shouldn't have happened or happened in a different way. Reboot has made great strides in taking the game in a better direction but is still lacking in some areas.
#1 damage. the attack speed, percentage on skills, and natural steroids such as %att, total damage, and final damage vary wildly on classes in this game resulting on extremely unfair and unbalanced power levels with equivalent gear.(reboot) Some classes are stuck with primarily flat bonuses like +att or + stat which are much less powerful than the earlier bonuses I mentioned in terms of scaling. Great examples of this would be the skills of bowmaster and marksman when compared to classes like fire poison and ice lightning mage. With equivalent gear(pensalir for example) archmages will high ridiculously higher range and damage because of its passive and active final damage/%damage/%att skills compared to the archers which have very little if any at all. Scenarios like this are repeated in countless other comparisons.

@uwotm8: They will either give us a messed up bigbang or none at all.

So basically pre-potential beginners, then?
(minus the blood drain and final att)

Fine. Remove potential, remove bonus potential, remove nebulites, remove hyper stats, remove Vth job skill enhancement cores, remove every skill that gives boss damage, final damage and % attack. Then change every skill to have the same attack speed(500ms), 100% damage and can only hit 1 time. Give every class a blood drain and final attack.
Now every single class plays exactly the same way, there's your balance. So what's the point of having 41 classes? They might as well delete 40 classes and let everyone play the same class.

It's just a game, dood. Every class should be a different experience. Go look at some nerd's dps chart and pick the top one to play if that's what you care about, numbers.

Ill add some more stuff:
Nexon sucks
they unfairly ban people, me included
their customer service is horrible
horrible staff and GMs who have no idea how the game works - you ever seen their livestreams and how embarassing that is?
laggy as hell game
too many Nexon apologists and shills who arent aware that they are being lied to and are just taking the pain as if its a regular thing
of course theres the glitches, many of them go way back, some have been banned for exploiting them whetther by intention or not, but the fact of the matter is they shouldnt have those exploits in the first place
its no wonder why their players are decreasing, their revenues dont mean crap compared with the rest of the other things if you look at their yearly reports, this game could close down and it wont mean a dime to Nexon
