" • Combo Barrier: now increases party's defense and magic defense by 60 "

Can someone explain the change made to Combo Barrier?
Is that better than a 20% damage reduction?

AFA only works with Pierce for MMs. So useless...

Update this thread please. Maha's Blessing gives 30 Attack and Magic Attack for 100 seconds. I won't even bother checking the rest.

[quote=epicpwn24]Guys, remember that this is after the legend patch, in which final blow was changed to 3 hits instead of one.
So Final Blow is really 355%x3, 1065%, not just 355%.[/quote]

Yea I just watched a video abour KMS lvl 200 Aran soloed Horntail. This is his damg of OS + Final Blow: 450k, 999k x 2, 999k x 2 + 999 x 3 <<<HOLY o.o o.o o.o

[quote=cPadfoot]Extra weapon speed? I like the %boss damage but still no Maha or 100% stance? Yes I am never content.[/quote]

stop being greedy with skills. this is ur 3rd revamp (chaos, post legends and now this). some class haven't been touch once yet. Why don't you make your own game and make classes that have everything.

[quote=MidnightDark]That wasn't explained anywhere which lead me to think that way ^. Glad to know we won't receive penalties anymore! Arans FTW[/quote]

Yeah that wasn't made very clear at all in the patch notes. However, if you observe the video of the 13x aran in MP, you'll notice that his damage doesn't change when fighting one monster or x monsters. Of course, more tests needs to be done in order to confirm this.

[quote=MidnightDark]No, the damage dispersal was reduced by 50%, then by 75% in Legend (making us even stronger mobbers), but now the damage dispersal reduction is gone so it seems like all our split damage will be weak as hell. [/quote]
The damage dispersal being gone means that we won't receive any penalties when attacking multiple monsters o-o.

[quote=StarOfDOOM]What damage penalty? :I[/quote]

If you played Aran before Chaos or before adding a point on Cleaving Attack, you would notice you doing less damage than expected on more than one enemy.

They need to change blessing of mach. Make it reduce damage taken by party by 5% or something.

lol time after time, while the surviveability for dark knights decrease, the surviveability for arans increase
(they lost defense, we gained it)

holy crap thats a huge buff to arans...(probably as big as chaos)

combo drain is now 20% drain? i guess we can drain even more now? and nice buffs to almost every attack for aran. however, i feel this is going to be worse than the other classes' buffs.

very good updates but the efect of blessing of match (+50 def/mdef for 100 secs) is pretty lame, i hope is a typo lol

[quote=Feeling]Kevs I love you.

But man.... I don't want to switch to an Arcglaive just for that like... 3 attack bonus. ;_;
More HP and more defense : YES.
But I'm still wondering what that Blessing of Mach is.

[url=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Di-7Sphxmbg]Found a video.[/url]

OH MY GOD. Could it be? Overswing no longer moves us forward when attacking mobile monsters?
That could take some getting used to. lol[/quote]

I've wanted that^ for such a long time but now with the realization that it will be gone I'm going to miss it T_T
Only thing it helps is for BGA when you had to tank it to make it not stun.

EDIT: Oh, and it has killed me numerous times at zak f3. 1/1 + in the middle of swinging at mobs = death.

[quote=kruimel0]Blessing of Mach has Invincibility's (that cleric skill) animation at the moment.

I highly suspect it to have similar properties, something along the lines of ignoring damage. I don't know if it's solo or party buff.[/quote]

Oh intresting, I hope its a party buff because I feel sad that in LHC I have nothing to offer expt barrier at Lv.160+

The thing im most excited for is that Combo attacks hit a much larger range.
We got buffed, Just like everybody else. I bet we will remain average-ish.

Combo disappears right away when you stop attacking. Maybe it'll take a while before it disappears. n_n
