What changes would you make to Nl? 5th job skills you want?
Personally I want either a higher dodge chance from shadow shifter or to have it apply to all attacks in the game, including the unnavoidable %hp attacks from bosses. It really feels like we got shafted on that one since we were the only class that had any skill of the kind preBB and now almost every class has some type of avoid skill.
Edit - As soon as I am unbanned from the Nexon forums later today I will forward all of these ideas to whomever was chosen as the thief/NL representative. I doubt it will do anything but I can hope. And I will also be forwarding any new requests made on this thread. But its already very clear that I was not the only one who thought our survivability was trash

I want drain skill back,more avoid, vertical jump and higher dps. Not too much to ask for...
I have said it numerous times in the past, but we have the lowest total Evasion Rate out of all Thieves (includes Xenon). Part of the reason is that we lack an Evasion Rate multiplier skill, but a higher Dodge Rate (60%+) is certainly ideal.
Besides that, vertical jump should be mandatory. Things like Back Step, passive heal (integrating it into Mark of Night Lord perhaps), or pre-Justice Drain seem like a pipedream. Then again, all of the good intangibles are with NW's.
It will be interesting to see if Hyper Skills are abolished or kept when 5th job ever arrives.
Yeah I would appreciate more up to date survivabilty like improved dodging/avoid abilty or shade's backstep and honestly a heavy re skin of skills, were kinda all over the place with the theme... giant kunai for showdown, shadow webs, wind archer's spiraling vor--i mean gust charm* and whatever fraility curse is...
@Lecarde: Good ideas. We can only hope that Nexon will listen

I agree. Normally I would post this on the official forums so I can at least dream of Nexon paying attention, but currently Im banned from there >.<
Anyway, I really hope we can compile a short list and give it to whomever was chosen to be the NL/thief representative that Artasi was talking about.
So far some of the things I really think need to be worked on are our dodging skills and our buffs. Like you said Haste is useless, but if it bumped our max speed to 180, and if we could bump our max jump up to 140 it would help a lot since it would be so much harder to hit max speed/jump passively. It could also grant resistance to the slow effect or something idk
And the lvl 150 hyper should be updated. It kinda sucks to have a 90 second CD on a 30 sec buff that is weaker than most classes' default attack buffs.

Quintuple throw, so we can throw 12 stars with hyper .
Hmmm I wouldn't want a jump attack honestly, seems like too much coordination is needed. But if you want to put us on a fair-er ground with NW then giving us elemental resist ignore or a bind would be really helpful xD
Either take away the jump attack of a NW or give us one, the fact that they have healing and elemental resist ignore is already stacked enough.
