Another survey about if Flames of Rebirth is good for GMS. You can view the thread below, but note that the poll isn't counted anymore since I wrote the question wrong.

You would need to redo the weapon, you lose attack via enhancements due to options.
Getting a +50 attack or whatever the highest you can get from options onto a weapon prior to enhancing will likely change how much you gain from enhancing in the first place.

Is that something you guys were discussing? o:
That seems pretty interesting, though I'm unsure how willing GMS would want to implement that. I feel like attack speed should have more importance (i.e if someone has spent a lot to get attack speed inner ability, the dps should be greatly affected or how getting - cooldown reduction greatly increases the dps of demon avengers)

Yes but without the stupid scissor count.

Can someone explain what the Flame of Rebirth is? What exactly is in the update?

The EMS video posted on this thread mentions that you DON't have to redo your weapons. It is just like a Nebulite , but is usable on pockets .

Also, he provides good examples of stats on his video, so except 5% DMG, and +%stats from your flames. I also have the Goon Lim guy's Chaos Queen video with pre-flamed hats in case you want to know how AO affects boss drops as well as some other videos and pictures and videos of flames in action.

ITT no one knows how additional options works.
Yeah, MLC has a history of terrible ideas (at least the ones brought to public), but additional options would actually be a good system. I cbf to list out all the reasons why. I'll let the community decide its own fate.

The only thing I'll specifically say is that the argument that it is "too complicated for beginners" is bull. New players need to know zero to take advantage of higher stat equips on drop - nebulites, potential, and scrolling all take a little research/reading before being able to take advantage of it. AO needs none of that (until you want to maximize stats on your gear, which no new player should worry about).

It would have been a good idea before, it's a bit late of an addition now and would simply frustrate people trying to get decent things on their perfected gear now.

Wow. There is absolutely no need to redo your weapons, people. It's like using a 100% potential scroll which adds damn good bonuses. Flames may be crafted as well as dropped from bosses and acquired from events of all sorts. I am getting so upset if somebody is not as nerdy as me and doesn't check the info. </3

you will have to redo ur weapon because it gives att boost up to 50? i think, so have to use a good flame b4 u star force ur weapon.

good thing abt flame is it will increase ur potential level so u can get decent si skill on lv110 gloves and ofc more stats on all items.

but redo weapon just way too much and painful so i m against this.

This is the reason why nobody plays EMS, they always give the content too slow and pick the horrible one.

It's obviously not a good idea if one aims to keep the game both balanced and easier to understand for beginners.

People already have a hard enough of a time obtaining cubes and nebulites. These systems need to be addressed first, such as more frequent sudden missions with different rewards depending on the area you're in, with an increased chance for necessary items such as cubes. Adding in these flame things seems like a fake band-aid solution to the machete-through-the-arm which is our multiple enhancement systems. It just won't decrease the reliance on NX for damage significantly enough for me to justify supporting it.

I'll leave this here because I still think additional options is a bad idea. Please read what the people here have had to say.

I don't see an issue with this system to be honest, as long as, it doesn't replace nebulites. (mostly for decent skills)

The game is unbalanced enough as it is. Might as well have this too, y'know?
