@Kazzooey: The more I think about it though, the more that I see Xenon being reflected in Pallies. What I mean by that is, you guys have utilities. Already godly defence, coupled with an actual godmode plus a bind skill (basically lets you whack at Magnus like he's a training dummy) on top of warrior's Magic Crash, and Void to hit 100% of damage. As for support skills, you got Parashock and the ability to revive.
I really don't care if you guys hit hard because that can be caught up with through funding. However, what bugs me is that there is no possible way to obtain utilities other than switching classes.

Just a thought, its all good though. Heroes have been top dog for a while

[quote=failway]@iEatCheeseLol the calculation of damage for heroes and paladins are different

Heroes can hit harder with lower range,
with around 80-90k range you guys can hit around 1-2 mil per line of enraged rb.
While pallies need roughly 150k range to hit 1 mil per line of blast.
The problem with leviyatan is that there is a timer.
Heroes have constant ACA, enrage (which last around 3 min), incising for crits and DoT, and panic/chance attack.
Paladins have only 45 sec to be in their best and hit hard before needing to recharge,
which is a bit time consuming and is problematic for bosses with timers such as v0yages and dojo

(correct me if I'm wrong)[/quote]

Yea that's pretty much spot on (other than the 3 min enrage because Enrage now is toggle on/off skill). Recharging can be a huge pain in the ass as you HAVE to hit something 6 times total (5 charges + 1 precharge) to completely charge. And quite often in areas like Vellum, Pink Bean, and Magnus you can wind up wasting soooooooooooo much time trying to recharge since you can't always hit them due to DR, bosses going underground, and avoiding various attacks. So that 45 Seconds of Blast Spam isn't really 45 seconds, sometimes it's only 10 seconds before you need to recharge.

Paladins are inconvenient to say the least. DrK [i]can[/i] be a little inconvenient too but not nearly as bad as Paladins. Hero are very easy and stable to work with as they don't have hardly any cooldowns or screwy systems to deal with. But the tradeoff for Paladins is that they are built towards end-game.

[quote=iEatCheeseLol]I see, thanks for the explanation. I'm not too knowledgeable on how Pallies work now [/quote]

Heros and DrK's are better on bosses without resistances. Examples include Mu lung dojo, pink bean, commerci sailing.
Bosses with resistances are favored towards paladins. Examples include Root Abyss, Magnus, Empress.

We're not better. We're just more suited towards the toughest end-game fights.

Yea sure a 350k range would do it if you don't have a single ounce of %Boss...

You can kill him with a 200k Range, 60% Boss, and a Green Potion.

id assume you would need about 200k range and 75% boss to kill him. Since I have 400k and 75% boss and kill him when the timer is about halfway.

As a hero, I take it down with like 1/10th of the bar remaining. I have 108k range buffed w/o hypers, and 77% Boss damage/115% pdr. I pop like 2.8m to 3m per line with my enraged raging blow. :>

My stats are: Range of 197466 ~ 216965, 80% Crit (allowing Blast to crit 100% of the time), 85% PDR, 90% Boss, and Decent Sharp Eyes. Depending on if he cooperates, he usually goes down with 1/4ths of the time remaining. This is without Echo or Epic Adventure or Terms btw (but they help); Livy takes around 1.65mil-2.00mil a line.

haven't gotten that far in the quest line, but if you beat mu lung, do you probably have enough dps to beat it?

@solarius: lol np. I don't get much time left, like maybe a tenth of the bar remaining. I do consistently finish though

[quote=Crabcakes410]I can kill him with very little time left with 200k Buffed ranged (not including AB Link, Epic Adventurer, or Arcane Aim) 137%Boss and 60%PDR and 100%Crit plus max crit dmg.

I save all my Big Damage Cooldown Skills just for him and all the other random buffs too.[/quote]

Buffed I have 310k range, 115% boss, 64% pdr, and void and it takes me about half the time to kill him. Hope this helps.

EDIT: My guess is ~200k range and maybe 60% boss would suffice because we have void.

It's easier for some jobs, especially if you have short time damage boosters like infinity, or Holy Magic Shell to block his super knockback. (And Bishop range is lower "buffed" than unbuffed, lol, so 200k buffed is like 250k unbuffed?)
