Mercedes Revamp
So I just recently made a Mercedes and the damage is a tad underwhelming but I heard from a few guild members and ally members that there is a Mercedes revamp coming and was wondering what's changing? Please and Thank You!

It's only speculation, but most likely sometime in October.
I'm not doing it for the damage, I like the play style of the class. <3
[quote=VermillionOcean]Spammable Spikes Royale and Lightning Edge. A significant % buff to Ishtar's Ring and AFA as well as [i]good[/i] Ishtar hypers. Stunning strike gets an upgrade so it becomes a decent mobbing skill in 4th job. We lose the 40% chance to ignore all Pdef on Defense Break and gain 25% PDR, 25% elemental ignore and 30% max crit damage. 150 hyper doubles in duration. Overall, we'll be seeing 80-100% dpm increase, although that will still make us the weakest archer in terms of damage after RED. But if you're playing a Mercedes, you should've known that already and it shouldn't be the reason you're playing this class.[/quote]
wow that sounds awesome
@Mylust This. Mercedes game play is awesome and I find quantity> quality. Also Ishtar's ring will get a range increase (equivalent to the current hyper I assume).

Don't join our ranks if yu're playing for dmg. I don't play for dmg only for the style of the class
Mercedes needs lots of funds to be strong, I think Mercedes should have ishtar buffed more.

Defense Break also receives +15% Bossing.
