All jobs should have a link skill?

Do you think that all jobs should have a link skill like cannon shooter, mercedes, demon slayers, and phantoms do? If so then please explain what that skill should be. I think each type for adventures should have a link skill.

Hero,Drk, and Paladin - 10% hp/mp
Shadower, Night Lord - 10% avoid
IL,FP, Bishop - (not sure)
Bowmaster, Marksman - (not sure)

[quote=iaamme]Regardless of it being a typo, you make it seem as though they're a small minority, when they're currently the majority, will be tied once phantom comes out, and will be 2/5 once the pirate hero comes along. Does it really matter which class has link skills, anyway? It takes a day to get to 70.[/quote]
It's rather the fact that they will be the only two Heroes without a link skill. It doesn't really matter how long it takes to get to 70, most link skills give a nice boost (4/5 do at least, Mikhail's is kind of... meh). And it's likely that every other new class will also have link skills. Is it stands they are not the majority, it is equal footing between Mercedes and Phantom and Evan and Aran (because Phantom is released and we already know his kit, he's not ambiguous like the Pirate hero).

That would be a pretty cool buff.

give us infinite char slots and then go ahead. For Bowman 10% Crit Chance increase and 10% crit damage increase, for Mag extra 10% chance to heal 1% of the damage you deal into HP(stacks with other drain skills such as dragon wisdom), for Pirate increase item drop rate by 10%.

[quote=ShadowTimes]that makes super pro into DAM BOY WHAT DID YOU PUT IN YOUR COFFEE!
OT: archer chars should have like a 10%crit link
arans 10% att?[/quote]

10% ATTACK too OP for a link.
Lets say, arans get +10 attack.
Thieves: 10% chance to dodge.
Avoid 10% is useless for most classes.

Warriors, bowmen, pirates, thieves: + 10 attack. Mages: +10 magic attack.

[quote=iaamme]Aran and evan are two separate classes... And once phantom's out, there'll be 4 heroes, 2 of which will have link skills, 2 of which wont.[/quote]
And given the fact that new classes are getting link skills, it's likely that the Pirate hero will have one as well. In which case they will be the only two heroes without one. Note that my reference to them as a single hero was a typo.

no, but i do think they should add a link skill to aran and evan. Otherwise they would have to make diff link skills for like each adventurer branch 14 adventueres+begginer and 3 resistance and 5 KoC.

I'm not going to throw around any suggestions as to what the skills should be, but yes I think each should have a link skill. I also think it should be much higher than 70.

[quote=OmgItsMazz]I wouldn't complain about 10% avoid, I'm at ~8.9k avoid currently and there's a really noticable difference in how often I get hit compared to people with less than that. I think if Nexon ever ends the revamps they will give every class link skills at some point.[/quote]
Probably not. Links have been around for a while now and not a single "old" class has gotten one, so I doubt that they'll start handing them out.

The link skill should definitely be limited to Legends or newer jobs.
They are Nexon's way of making us play the new jobs, not older ones.

Yes, but the lvl to get it should be raised to 120 at least, it would be better at 150 or something.

[quote=1CrazyCleric]A similar theme is coming out where each character gives a different type of card and you can use up to 3 cards. The grades are dependent on level and class and can be made into sets of 3 to give better boosts. I saw it on OrangeMushroom's blog, I should go dig it up. I do agree with you though.

Edit: @teresa: I think it might make people try more character's though. Sure more mules will be made, but it might get other people interested in the classes they're trying. I saw link skills as a huge incentive to make the new characters anyways, besides just the flashy skills they had.[/quote]

I didnt know about this new card type thing. I shall go read about it now.

Seriously I dont find it a good idea. Players are overpowered anyway, this game doesnt need any more boosts.

don't see why people are so opposed to this idea. It's only fair imo that if certain classes have link skills at lvl 70 others should have it as well.

Bad idea, thieves will just complain about avoid being completely useless (it is)
Nexon just uses the link skills as promotion toward the new jobs.
