[quote=shinobiman]Used the unleashed event to get 5 pieces of unique Emp gear, each with at least 9% dex, scrolled a 178 att Emp bow, and got a secondary with 30% boss, 3% all, 6% dex. That, plus moving all the link skills, 4 evo rings, and a meh-scrolled 15 all android heart. Two month's worth of event hoaring: worth it. ^_^[/quote]

[quote=bluebomber24]@seishikin: All of them do fine in bossing when looking at all categories. Strictly dpm speaking DA is only stronger than revamped Dawn Warrior, Demon Slayer, Hayato, Aran, and Paladin.

Dawn Warrior has the least interest of all the current revamps atm.
Demon Slayer, eh.
Hayato has no hypers.
Aran, I don't know how the interest was for this, I was on hiatus when Aran was released, but I am also not sure when OP classes started to take off for every new class released. I think Mechs started it.
Paladins have way more support and are stronger than DA on physical resist. Paladin has recieved a lot of interest after RED.

Most warrior users would look at DA and would choose another warrior if 1v1 dpm was a priority.

Contrarily, WA are top 1v1 dpmers, and TBs are decently stronger than DW. WA, TBs animations look fun, DW looks like a luminous version of hayato. Thats why I don't think the revamp is the sole factor, but rather the skill's looks and the damage that comes along with it.[/quote]

No love for Mihile obviously

@ProHealer: No you are misunderstanding. I am saying that semantics is irrelevant to what I stated whether it exists or not. I find it somewhat funny how simply saying that a WA is not a new class is rude or maybe I misinterpreted her so badly that my response appears as rude. Nevertheless, if you think my post was rude or arrogant, oh well, moving on.

The WA is not a a new class, I did not view her post in the way that you claim I clearly did, I already got from her what she actually meant, and contrarily to what you think I actually agree with her positions to a certain extent.

[quote=bluebomber24]@ProHealer: No, its not. By that logic, a whole lot of new classes were introduced in RED. If the class count is unchanged, then a new class has not been introduced. Revamp =/= New Class. Revamp=New Skills. Plain and simple.

Saying "WA is practically a new class" compared to "bowman class in a longgggg time" are two different things and has nothing to do with semantics.[/quote]

You literally are giving the definition of semantics and saying it isn't semantics. Whether or not the new Wind Archer is "technically" considered a new class was clearly (and i mean CLEARLY) not the point of her post; however, you somehow took it that way. Somehow. To be quite frank your post was rude and you come across as arrogant with a "always has to be right" attitude.

I'm not gonna continue arguing because that is pointless. We're not even on the same page anymore.

I just believe that a huge reason WA are hugely hyped because it is the newest archer branch class (revamp or new) to hit gms, with the last one being Mercedes in late 2011 (I believe). That is the point I was trying to get across. Nothing else.

[quote=seishikin]Of courses there is a general consensus that newer revamped or new classes are more powerful than older ones. But you know what I mean. Your statement was made despite you knowing the point I was trying to make.

I believe that if red and WA did have a large gap then the hype would still be similar. For instance, I see that there is a low hype of DA due to xenon release. However,I believe if DA was released at a later date then DA would be much more hyped.

The "game" I referred to was just a way to express my annoyance that you took my initial post completely out of context and commented about something that was irrelevant to my post's objective.

And even though WA being a new class or not is not even my point, I agree that WA is not a new class strictly speaking, but a revamped one.[/quote]

Actually, no, don't assume I know what you meant. There have been multiple threads spread out in which people believed and/or asked wheter the current Cygs would stay the same and new cygs were being released. My statement was made purely on what you wrote.

DA would not have received the same hype. It does not appeal to the masses that much and its a balanced class but not super strong. Their is a VERY good reason why Nexon obnoxiously makes overpowered classes upon releasing a new class.

In regards to your "game and annoyance", I now view the sentence you made as awesome.

@seishikin: There is no game to be played. I made a statement o.o. A BM has new skills and mechanics after RED and plays nothing at all like the current BM. In fact GMS BM is non-exsitent after RED. That doesn't mean BMs are "new class" since Mercedes. The appeal of WA has more to do with thier flashiness and thier OP nature than being revamped or as you say being a "new" class. If RED or other revamps/buffs came before WA, the interest level would not be the same, meaning simply existing as a viable class to play is not the reason.

WA is not a new class.

Do you really want to play this game? I admit that technically wind archers are a really old class just revamped but we can all agree this is not a regular revamp. This is a completely new rehaul to the entire Cygnus division of classes. I said that WA are the "first bowman class to be released in a long time" because the last class that was classified to wear bowman armour was Mercedes, and now finally WA come and they can reach the 250 cap with new skills and mechanics. So lets stop trying to argue that WA is a not a new class because that is pointless. I was just pointing out the large gap between Mercedes and WA as being the reason why WA seems to be the most hyped.

143% dex atm. With my 140 gear I'll hit 203%. After finish cubing (another 5 gears) I'm hoping for 250% at least.

I just lack tons of scrolled dex/link skills/character cards FML.

Well i got all but the emp cape for my WA now

Scrolled the bow to +6 since like 8 clean states didn't work for the last slot but i feel as if the bow sucks still its only like 158 atk and only gives me 2k range it says from my junk +1 lol bow that i have on

I have 0% dex and thats about it other then i have every link skill so mostly i will still be as sucky as all my other chars but i will have wasted 300mil that i ogt from krexel in the last weeks that ive been doing him for not much of anything really

Buying items seems like a waste unless you have NX even if you have the meso sadface
