@Erag0n1: Illusion definitely hasn't changed lols. Faster? then yes otherwise no but that's pretty much with all attack skills. I'm pretty sure all the animations have remained the same since pre-bb. Completely new skills don't count (Onyx Will, Onyx Shroud). If Illusion did change, then what was the change exactly?

EDIT: I decided to look more into Illusion because you seem to be convinced it changed, so I looked at previous videos and in pre/post-bb (when illusion was still slow), the beginning animation showed Mir creating 3 other clones and each clone did 1 hit in Illusion. The current animation is technically still the same, you just don't see it anymore because our speed has increased a lot since then.

And what I mean by change is a completely new animation that has little resemblance to the old version.

[quote=JuniorMage]I heard a rumor F/P were getting Myst Eruption's hyper skill go from -100% cooldown to -50% cooldown, which would be quite devastating[/quote]
Unfortunately, that rumor is true.They do get minor buffs in other areas though, but overall, it's a nerf unless you're hitting above 35m with Paralyze.

Only illusion gets more lines though? Not really that awesome

I heard a rumor F/P were getting Myst Eruption's hyper skill go from -100% cooldown to -50% cooldown, which would be quite devastating o.o

[quote=GoldenHedgy]What's funny that they cut the delays on the animations and not update them... at least update Maple Warrior [/quote]

Oh yea...I completely forgot about the fact that our MW still has the old animation lmao.

mechanic nerf

[quote=Lecarde]To be fair, Evan was in serious need of having their animations shortened, by a lot. Its pretty significant combined with the buff to illusion, even if it isn't what Evans really needed[/quote]

Thanks Nexon, for further nerfing BaMs... how nice...

[quote=justsofly]Althought I'm glad they FINALLY added more lines to illusion, I'm not exactly satisfied with what they did to Evan. The rest is just really animation delay reduction.[/quote]

[quote=XVi3tX]WORDS CANNOT EXPRESSED MORE LINES ON ILLUSION <3 <3 <3[/quote]

I K R?@#
It took them far too long to notice how far behind evans were. It's a shame that they didn't do much else, but tbh I'll gladly settle on this and shorter delays

There will be more patches every week (Thursdays). You can expect the classes that hasn't been mentioned in today's patch to appear on later patches.

[quote=yearn]Im confused af by the pastebin translation for dawn warriors, could you modern english it pls <3[/quote]
I was meant to be done But since you used <3 ... Here I go

Elemental Expert: The elemental ignore now gives attack/magic attack

True Sight: Elemental Ignore has been removed. With True Sight- Enhance, you are still able to ignore their elemental defense

Soul Penetration: Cooldown has been increased

Solunar Time: Cast delay has been removed

Soul Forge: Duration has been decreased

Cross the Styx: You can now move and jump while charging, however, if you use a skill whilst charging, Styx will cancel its charge. The number of attacks has been increased, and cooldown has been decreased

TLR

Elemental ignore removed, added attack/magic attack. Buffed cross the styx. In the end, not as badly affected by the patch as some other Cygnus Knights

Can someone translate the Dual Blade section?

Sorry, I shouldn't make up a class like that. I'll see myself out.

[quote=SillyBats]Are you being sarcastic, or was there a buff to corsairs that I missed?[/quote]

F/P please? I've been looking for a reason to jump to Xenon because I have much more fun on it.

Im loving that corsair buff

[quote=WhyUNoFun]Can't tell if Evan is getting a buff or a nerf[/quote]

Evans are getting a mini buff. All of their skills have reduced skill delay, while Illusion gets more lines BUT less damage. We will have to wait and see how many lines they add and how much % they take off

Can't tell if Evan is getting a buff or a nerf

[quote=GlobalKorean]Kaiser

I was more curious what they mean by: "Kaiser is a profession with no big problems on balance, except for some special weapons as leverage. Therefore
It was used to modify the uncomfortable elements of skill, will re-examine the data, depending on the subsequent play when it comes to the special weapons."

I just didnt know if i was reading it right cause it sounds like theyre going to mess with how a kaiser uses a ryude sword

Yep Its literally "Damage has been decreased" on 90% of their skills.. This should dampen the hype around the re-release of Zero in the upcoming summer

@Klytta: and to answer you question instead of my tired friend, there werent any update notes regarding any of the explorer classes (other than the mages)

[quote=SillyBats]Wind Archer
The Cygnus knights had a passive Elemental ignore, which placed them in a better position than others at bossing. Since Wind archers don't have as high % damage as other Cygnus knights (lmao) we added Boss % to make them more efficient at bosses
Elemental Expert- The elemental ignore has been changed to increase in Attack and Magic Attack (Rip)
Element: Storm- Increase in duration
Bow Expert- Boss % has been added
Monsoon- Cooldown has been reduced

Bishops
Magic Guard- duration has been lowered
Magic booster- increase in duration, skill animation is now shorter
Invincible- duration and animation has been lowered
Heal- Cooldown has been increased, for each party member healed, the cooldown will be reduced
Dispel- Cooldown has been increased, for each member affected, the cooldown will be reduced
Holy Symbol- Duration has been increased, animation has been shortened (The amount of bonus exp is listed on the skill)
Divine Protection- Animation has been lowered
Genesis- Skill delay has been shortened
Resurrection- After resurrection, you are now invulnerable for a period of time
Vengeance of Angel- After use, you can now use beginner spells and Epic Adventure. Monster's elemental resistance will also be lowered[/quote]

Thank you. You are the man.
I love you.
If you ever come to Broa, you can have whatever item you want.

[quote=GlobalKorean]Good luck! Need some help?[/quote]

Combo Fenrir: Uses less combos, skill delay has been shortened
Final Charge: Skill delay has been shortened
Body Pressure: Increase in duration
Combo Drain: Now gains MaxHP instead of HP. Duration has been reduced
Snow Charge: Now deals additional damage to monsters who are slowed. This also works against bosses, although the damage will be cut down by 50% compared to monsters. Skill delay has been shortened

Advanced Combo Ability- Passive stance has been increased. Attack now scales passively, instead of relying on combos.

Final Toss: After use, now you jump into the air

Overswing: Now grants more damage to all the swings (Double, triple etc) Increases combo smash's damage
Boss Reverse Combo- Combo accumulation rate has been increased
Final Blow- Increase in attack lines, lowered the number of monsters hit
Combo Tempest- After use, now leaves monsters on 1hp. Now can only be used by command keys (instead of down arrow and something). Does not use combos when used in succession to the first Tempest.
Combo Barrier- Skill delay has been lowered
Beyonder- The number of attacks has been increased. The number of max monsters hit has been reduced. For every hit that is lower than the maximum number of hits, it deals increased damage. (Eg. If the skill can hit upto 6 times, and you only hit 1 monster, you will deal significantly more damage)

@SillyBats Anything mentioned about DB, nerf or buff? If you're not to busy.

Edit: Looked at the link. If that's the entire thing then guess DBs will continue on as is.

P.s. That NW nerf Ouch.

@GlobalKorean Wait.. DBs aren't explorer mages? Just kidding. Thanks.

[quote=motionblurr]Oh tbh I never even realized nether slice hit 12 enemies XD
but yeah hopefully it doesn't hurt training too much.[/quote]

I'm feeling a little unsure about this revamp... thought they were going to address the fact that we have the largest stat denominator of any other class's formula (which is somewhat justified as we do gain HP like crazy). I'm starting to wonder if this changes how we increase stat values in DAs. It's already really difficult to balance between WA and HP but now with all these changes, I don't know what way we'll end up having to swing. It does seem that we may receive some benefits from every HP point over the 500k cap but... how much it will benefit is unclear and it might not even be worth reaching that far just to get the bonuses.

@AshleyAttacked: 90% of the game is childish and simple. There were very few selling points about shade for me. I have always loved Arans, and DA's have interested me as well. I have never quite understood how to fund them though. Not too many videos on YouTube either to reference off. Ah well.
