Eunwol, BlazeWizard or NightWalker

Most profitable?
I hear some people asking if they should stock up on pirate gears for Eunwol, but I've only heard people say that Eunwol's are lame and boring.
Asked a few KMS players and only 1/5th seemed to actually like the class.
Quoting 1 of them even hating it so bad he send me this:

[quote=Southperry]Because Eun**** has no gameplay flow whatsoever and it's really boring.
They skills and damage feel underwhelming, They don't even look that pretty or nice, after couple of casts.
It's pretty tedious to play this ****** class, and every level feels unrewarding as hell.
The damage output you do isn't that great, and what's worse is the fact that latency might affect your gameplay.
Each and every single skill feels unrelated to others.
I really don't understand, how can anyone even like this concept it's seriously uninspired both gameplay wise and visually wise.
Nobody should play this torture "class" (it's just a slap of couple of ***** skills put into one class.), I have yet to see someone who truly enjoyed "playing" this.
and the list just goes on...
And it's not only my opinion as you can see, This looks nice on paper but in reallity the execution is jack*****
and for the last note i hope the person who thought this class is a good idea got fired and kicked out of his position while being humiliated by his co-workers.
TL;DR pineapple EUN** AND EVERYTHING IT STANDS FOR, PIECE OF ** CLASS!"[/quote]
And one of the knows KMS players Spadow saying that it's also a horribly boring class.

Since there is so much horrible feedback on Eunwol and the the recent Blaze Wizard revamp video had everyone joining the Hype train ( [url=http://www.basilmarket.com/show/video/29504/0/Flame_wizard_skill_revamp_preview_video.html]Video Url[/url] ) and the Night Walker probably even being crazier;

[B]Should I be hoarding Thief, Mage or Pirate RA gears and wait till release of these classes?[/B]

@OoYuukioO:
Yea, but he's gonna lose in long run I think.
I'll keep playing it since I don't even hate the gameplay/skills, looks fun to me.
The video doesn't prove much tho, I mean any funded class can solo any boss, it's indeed impressive f3

@DjFunky: I think everyone kinda knew they weren't going to be a big hit because they lack what every class these days have and that is flashy skills. Since the majority of players are middle - high school students, they are only interested in flashy & cool skills which is something they want at that age. Eunwol's skills are just more normal and simplistic and that isn't as appealing to Maplers these days considering all the new classes being flashy and cool.

However if Eunwol was a thief class, I bet they would have been a big hit since we all know how much Phantoms, Xenons and Dual Bladers there are. Easy exchange of equips instead of scrolling new ones and well Thieves in general are just considered to be cool by kids. Or even make his skills flashier, oh boy there will be so many bandwagons but even if the poll doesn't depict it there is no denying that Eunwol is a scary bosser and people these days are all for damage+bossing potential. He is going to get bangwagon for his bossing potential in my opinion

All I can say is this is still pretty impressive:

[quote=OoYuukioO]@DjFunky: Thats because people saw the preview video and saw how flashy and mobile the class is, its more attractive than Eunwol who is not as mobile and more generic with a simple flash jump that all other classes have. People see this and just assume that Night Walkers are gonna be crazy as well and they should be since they are gonna need to live up to uniqueness of the other Cygnus classes. Pretty much just everyone jumping on the "hype train", seeing a new class and how flashy they are really.

They can't just make Eunwol as flashy as the Cygnus knights because well its from the "Hero" branch, these classes are meant to exist before explorers came iirc so making Eunwol so flashy wouldn't fit the storyline. Also, Nexon has to make Cygnus knights flashy and engaging since they were way overdue for a revamp, and have to live up to the hype of the revamp and hopefully bring back returning players to MapleStory or newer players after seeing how crazy they are. Of course, if these classes don't perform well in terms of bossing...I'm expecting a lot to stop playing them after the hype. Look at Zero, everyone was all hype up about them being able to tag and deal massive damage but then they saw that it wasnt a GREAT bosser but only a DECENT bosser and well they just slowly disappear (of course it could just be because of the long storyline, having to alternate skills which a lot seems to have difficult with since they only know how to hold down a skill and their unavailability).

Part of the people who voted for BW and NW probably already has funds invested to their respective classes so it would be an easy transition if those classes are OP, as oppose to Pirate equips which most probably doesn't have. I wouldn't say its a stupid move to invest into pirate gears considering that they are generally cheaper therefore has better potential to increase your damage and we all know most Basilers love damage (of course it would be harder to find these Pirate equips, so prices may inflate but most are generally a lot cheaper than that of Thief gears and Mage gears).

Most of my guild members are excited for Eunwol, because all they see is how OP their bossing capability is due to their Passive and Soul Division, and ignore the fact of them not being as flashy as other class. As long as they are OP at bossing its perfectly fine to them.

All I'm saying is its rather premature to open a poll up against these jobs when there has only been 1 preview of BW (I do agree that it looks amazing like a fire version of Luminous with a hint of Angelic Buster) and no preview of NW. We are just all assuming them to be spectacular since the BW preview was great and Nexon has to live up to the hype of revamped Cygnus Knights otherwise they are going to disappoint a while lot of people who have waited over a year for them.[/quote]
TL;DR
Jks Jks
Srsly tho I got nothing against Eunwol, I've been collecting gear for it for 2 months now. Planning on maining it, but I just wanderer how the other maplers thought it about it. And I can see now that Eunwols won't be a success, just like they aren't a success in kms.

blaze wizards, they've always been a decent class for their level cap and now they look like they have SERIOUS map control, the only question needing to ask is how good each of the revamped cygnus are at bossing. because uhh.. dawn warrior, ye LOL

[quote=OoYuukioO]Isn't it to early to tell? Theres only "ONE" preview video for Blaze Wizard and "ZERO" preview video for Night Walker.

And I kinda like Eunwol, kinda goes back to the non-flashy roots of MapleStory which of course isn't flashy enough for people nowadays. I don't see why people might find them that boring, most Maple classes just involve holding a button nowadays anyways =3[/quote]
Even tho we know nothing about NW and only 1 video from BW, not even a single person voted for Eunwol.
So at least it's obvious that investing in pirate gear would be a stupid move.

Mage / Pirate Gear is the Cheapest to get right now, but if you really like a class I suggest that "price" shouldn't be a factor.

I feel like Eunwol be bandwagonned for a week and everyone will quit. Just like how Beast Tamer got all hyped and now there are barely any.
But I also got the feeling Blaze Wizard looks way to OP and will end up getting nerfed like most op classes.(Although we don't have much info yet).
@EnzoNick got a good point tho. Thief gear does sell better even if there isn't a hyped class using thief gear.

Still waiting on the Night Walker video...and i agree, honestly Eunwol looks boring, and uninspired. Blaze wizard i cant really make a good judgement on but from what ive seen it looks boring as well. I would go with Night walker.

Too early to tell really, seems like people liked BW a lot, but there isn't even a video for night walker. Eunwol... I think people are going to bandwagon it anyway.

How about thief? You can resell thief stuff to phantoms, xenons, (When they release) night walkers, dual bladers, and yeah. Second priority should be mage stuff.

Reply April 6, 2014 - edited

I'd say mage, thief stuff is already fairly expensive and probably won't increase much more, mage gear tends to inflate and deflate whenever a new mage class comes out (which is often, there are so many mages). EunWol is bang-your-head-against-the-desk-until-you-pass-out boring.
