Angelic Buster Videos?

Hello! I've recently stopped training my AB and wanted some inspiration. Most of the videos on YouYube seem rather outdated so I was wondering if anyone had some to share that a pretty recent. To be honest i've never seen any AB videos doing bosses such as Magnus or CRA so i'm actually quite curious as well. I'm sure others looking into making Angelic Busters would appreciate the videos too!

Anyway Thank You!

I recorded the second one right after SSE update, so I was still pretty bad at using Trinity for bossing [/quote]

Its quite amazing seeing the playstyle change after SSE became a skill. Great solos nonetheless!

Also, i'm happy to report that at lvl 135 I solo'ed my first boss! Take that Hilla

[quote=DreanBurster]ABs can't solo CVell because we don't hit enough lines/high enough :c

Quick update on what I've been doing:
Just recorded a Hard Gollux solo, but I'm not gonna upload it, because server lag + I had bad control.
C.Pierre is actually starting to feel possible, even with Seeker expert, but it's much harder than it should be.[/quote]

No need to revamp the last buff we get is to Melody Cross gives +1 atk speed and 1500 hp. That atk speed will raise our dps by a lot since it makes Roar and Trinty faster.

[quote=RisingRain]Nice video. Do you think it's possible for an AB to solo Hard Magnus without binds? I saw that you had about 16 lives left and about 13 minutes left after your run.
I'm sure everything up to hell zone would be no problem, but given how little time you have to hit Magnus (when he's not binded) when he's at <25% health makes me think you'd cut it close.[/quote]

It definitely is possible, I soloed normal mag with 250k range with double super kb glitch

[quote=KoopaKun]Wow. Once again flawless control. If I may ask though is your crit rate 100%? Right now at like 110 I think I still have the base 5%...
As for the next boss... I would love to see more CRA or gollux would be nice as I've never fought him before. <3[/quote]

I very recently just replaced my Zero ring with a 18% dex solid ring, and now I'm at 98% crit

I'll release a Hard Gollux tomorrow or so, and the other CRA bosses are hard for Angelic Busters :c

In the end GMS developers really have no say in what goes apparently. I remember seeing somehwere that KMS MUST approve fluctuations in game updates and such.

UNLESS they make exclusive changes that KMS doesn't have, this whole thing of seeking "experts" has no point.
And we don't know if they will make changes that differ from KMS, so I believe appealing to KMS developers a lot better than GMS's.

[quote=Artasi]I'm testing the water on a player-nominated council/senate type initiative, in which player representatives will be chosen from among all aspects of the game, who would then be a representative of their chosen "population" (One for each Job, one for the Free Market, one for the Story, etc.). This would allow us/them to gather feedback, share opinions, and voice opposition to changes and/or updates in the game, as well as create a more visible line from these players to our Production and Development team through myself.
This is still very much a work-in-progress, and I haven't talked about this with the team internally yet as this started as an idea today, but I would like to discuss the option internally of allowing this group of players to craft proposals that are voted on by the group itself, to be proposed directly to the development team itself on changes to the game and ideas/feedback that can be developed.[/quote]

I need to get myself up to speed with certain Maple terminologies LOL. So we don't get damage reflected back to us while using SS or SSE. Also on topic about a way to make both SS and Trinity useful, your idea about having them used like Kaiser's combination would make the most sense.

@KoopaKun:
I'm pretty sure you know what it does, but just to be clear, SS does not ignore DR, you just don't get damage reflected from using SS (and SSE)

(Edit) Yes it ignores physical/magical immune which I'm pretty sure is a glitch.

[quote=cheesemochi]I don't believe more lines on any of the skill will help AB; that will just destroy what makes Angelic Buster different from others.

Also Nexon has to decide whether to make Soul Seeker or Trinity (preferably both) to be our main skill.
If Soul Seeker is our main skill, they need to fix the problem with i-frames (orbs disappearing), and possibly reduces damage cap back to 50m.
If Trinity is our main skill, they need to remove Soul Seeker Expert and increase the damage cap to somewhere around 200~300m for Trinity only at least.
I don't have any specific plan for both, but it would be something similar to what Kaiser does with Wing Beats-Giga Slash.[/quote]

Seeker Ignores DR correct? If thats the case, Seeker seems to be more tailored to bossing, but not useful for certain bosses with i-frames

I'd have to look at AB when it was released, it was the patch I started playing and I knew next to nothing back then xD Seeker shot 4 orbs correct?
Maybe to help they could give seeker a skill (or have it be part of expert) where the orbs stay for a but to help with bosses with frame issues

[quote=KoopaKun]The amount of AB mains is quite shocking, in GAZED I've never met another person seriously playing the class with the intention to fund. I even asked a guildie his opinion on me wanting to main one, only to end in me getting scolded about how bad they are. I feel like everyone is still used to how long things took to max, at 110, i'm spamming Roar with Affinity Heart maxed out., completely erasing the "slow and clunky" argument. [/quote]

The main problem is that people don't really pay attention to ABs, and they don't really know that ABs were changed so that the recharge system doesn't really do anything bad anymore.

It's not that the class is "slow and clunky" although that might be the case pre-4th job, the issue is that our best skill is capped at 2 lines and the cast speed is lacking.
Looking at Xenon, their main bossing skill is either many lines and slow cast (mech purge) or few lines, but fast cast (beam dance). Or Marksmen, with 1 line for snipe, no cooldown and 400m cap.
ABs were pretty broken when our cap was higher than the norm (10m vs 1m cap), but with everyone having 50m cap, we're pretty irrelevant now.
The additional 20m to cap is pretty nice, but it is still lacking, and without some major revamp, I highly doubt there will be a surge in funded ABs.

[quote=KoopaKun]Wow, that was amazing! You character control was perfect it looked like. It was interesting seeing Pink Pummel(?) as a way to move across the map. Affinity Heart 4 also seems to help out tons, I did not notice any pauses while using trinity, so I'm assuming Affinity Heart 4 pretty much allows to spam whatever you want?

Anyway great job! I'm looking forward to my angelic buster being created in April ( More like me revealing her to my guildies) xD[/quote]

Yeah, I learned how to control my character when bossing thanks to CherryTigers! The decision on using Feather Hop vs Pink Pummel is [b]very[/b] situational. You'll want to use Pink Pummel in Queen, unless the mirror pops up on the other side of the screen, which you would use Feather Hop in that case. In Hard Magnus, I tend to use Feather Hop more, because the triple jump allows me to jump forward and backwards, and sometimes even [i]over[/i] the meteors, which is really great if you're ever cornered in a fight.

About Affinity, the moment Affinity 3 and 4 are maxed, you'll never have to worry about recharge ever again. If you fail a recharge, Affinity 4 triggers, and it'll try to recharge again. If that retry recharge fails, then Affinity 3 triggers, meaning when you fail 2 recharges in a row, it automatically recharges, which makes our recharge chance 100% for all our skills.

Also, thanks for the compliment! I hope you have fun on your Angelic Buster!
