I was just hoping for faster BB animations No point doing damage if you can't dodge 1HKO moves and other hazards during bossfights.

[quote=WildHeartless]I'm kind of new to aran... I have played one in the past but not really past 110... anyways I keep hearing tempest was nerfed, and i don't really understand why... right now tempest doesn't even harm enemies except bosses, just leaves the normal enemies frozen or something (well at least for me)... so if anyone can clarify how it was nerfed besides having a cooldown... I would appreciate it!

Sorry if this is a nooby question... I just feel confused on this tempest outroar because i find it rather useless now... and I did play them in the past vaguely enough to witness its awesomness for a brief period of time.[/quote]

Hi. it seems like the problem here is that when the normal mobs are frozen you can tempest again and the mob dies automatically or you can just auto attack it and it dies instantly. If the mob doesn't freezes, it means you cant 2hit it but i believe the damage is shown if the monster isn't frozen.

Bossing damage: Buff
Mobbing ability: Nerf (Greatly)
Survivability: Nerf
Mobility: Buff
Buffing and attack dealys: Nerf (this is good some buffs are 50% faster and OS is 30% faster)
Combo: Nerf (combo is now less important and FBBB will always increase combo while there is very little that will use it, and little need for a combo)

Overall they changed us from undying mobbering kings to hard to kill mobber and bosser average joe. Oh and gave us less of a reason to care about combos.

I think the number of mobs you can hit per attack went down so it's a nerf in that sense.
However, the %/line goes up with each mob you DON"T hit (so damage increases when you hit 1 mob instead of, say, 4) and more lines were added which means Arans have become more boss oriented and have the ability to do more damage and more lines without resorting to a new skill or a change in attack pattern.
At least that's what i've seen with FB and BB so far, I'm not too sure about the other changes.
