twister spin

So while other classes with spinning attack ( xenon, drk ,db) have high DMG and mobility(moving while casting, why can't battlemages move while casting twister...? Its not like it does high amount of DMG or hit multiple lines..

[quote=Galbatore]What the heck, everyone's comments are saying Twister Spin invincibility got removed? That sucks. In EMS we still have the old version though (but not sure if you can move with it).

While to be fair not being able to move during Twister Spin kinda makes sense from a scientific perspective (?) in that if said caused huge gravity that caused enemies to be pulled in it would also render the user unable to move. But since when has Maple been about being scientifically accurate, fact is, being stuck in one place during TS just kinda stinks. I hope that gets modified for you guys since TS was always a skill I liked the look of in your class.[/quote]

Wrong, on EMS Twister spin doesnt grant invincibility anymore and doesnt allow you to move either, in fact it has been like this since Tempest update.

They used to move. However, i only use Twister to heal, and even still I don't do that because Blows + BKB is OSM o-o

I usually don't bother casting Genesis anymore, only at the beginning of boss fights because the casting time IS UBER SLOW. That and Battle Rage have such irritable casting time.

It was invincibility before and it wasn't op. Just made life easier.

[quote=ImCrunk]what i want to know is,
Would it be possible to do more damage on bosses with twister spin + final atk of dark gene as opposed to the regular finishing + BKB + final atk of dark gene?[/quote]

Until you unlock the level 170 hyper skill Twister Spin is supposed to increase your 1v1 damage. Once you unlocked Sweeping Staff you shouldn't bother with it on bosses anymore though.
