Last thing I did on my shad today was tear down a merc in pvp using BoT and assualter, assualter for the kill blow, I immediately shutdown my laptop after the K.O was registered. Pvp, BoT, assualter. Ill miss u
My friend and I were killing stirges with BoT & Assaulter.., spending the last 30 minutes before maintenance. Q~Q
[quote=Oshawott]Well preBB, Assaulter was our ONLY movement skill.
After BB/Pre"Justice"(currently): Some shadowers don't use it, I personally do. It can sometimes get into places where FJ can't alone, If you look on the video I posted. I used it to get to the platform <- of zakum's arms, That saves me 1-2 seconds, You can also do similar in horntail if you know how. Other than movement It can cause high amounts of damage, Plus it IGNORES weapon defence so on high defence monsters It can even be the best DPM skill available.
Post "Justice/Revamp": It is removed and replaced with a rush skill, where instead of going straight though a monster it will PUSH (as all rush skills do) Perhaps it is more useful to us, however I am going to feel extremely hindered in terms of movement.[/quote]
o ahah, thats y some one used it at cwkpq and pretty much teled up the flame,stirge part
edit: well this is somewhat off topic but, i got a NW to 70 and tried avenger out since i knew it was going, and i really wished i didnt cause its so amazing to use, and fun, like at lvl 75 i was hitting 25ks at netts without shadow partner since i know we getting sp resets
[quote=RIPFusionality]We lose two good skills for better skills.
Makes no difference to me.[/quote]
They're not better. But believe whatever you wanna believe.
@BodyPainting: monsters will be nerfed? ...wow
[quote=superimani]WAIT WHAT there is no more assaulter or some type of variation of it? That was the reason i made a shad all these years ago...[/quote]
muspelheim is pretty much assaulter. people just like to QQ
[quote=iEatNoobz]Correct me if I'm wrong, but I thought meso explosion was getting removed as well o-o[/quote]
You're wrong. LOL After the revamp, Meso Explosion is the main mob skill for CBs LOL
[quote=superimani]@Oshawott: what about the range it covers?[/quote]
Not 100% on this, But I'm assuming about the same.
-sigh- Disbanding my Band of Thieves is gonna be one of the hardest things I've ever done in my maple career...
And giving up my hyper teleportation skill? I wish Phase Dash still retained that ability of Assaulter's...
On the bright side, I get to max out my meso skills' potentials much earlier.
Correct me if I'm wrong, but I thought meso explosion was getting removed as well o-o
the reason i made a shad was for meso explosion. i hate nostalgia posts, but i remember when people dropped meso bags to solo bosses.
assaulter is really cool but i don't mind since the improvements made on shadowers are good. as for band of thieves, i don't really mind either. now i'll be able to use meso explosion more efficiently.. i hope
bye bye assaulter
Ill miss Chakra it saved my life here and there
Assaulter and meso explosion are the only reason I made a CB for. I loved you assaulter ;-;
[quote=reedpipes]NUUUUUUUUUU assaulter!
Thief revamp's going to be great, but tbh one of the main reasons I made a shad was because assaulter is so freaking cool.
@BodyPainting: muspelheim will be invaluably useful to my shad in lhc and anywhere, since shads currently do not have a rushing skill. It's hard to gather all the monsters together.
@4verDecay: I wanna know this too![/quote]
No such thing as training in LHC, its sucks terribly after the revamp.
@Oshawott: what about the range it covers?
I don't mind BoT, but I'll miss assaulter.
I got eckhearts vampire and darkness, so BoT can go to hell, I will miss assaulter tho, that skill is really usefull and fun
[quote=BodyPainting]It's not nice at all, it's not as useful as BoT to train and it's quit annoying in fact to rush towards enemies while training. It's make it harder to train on platform since you'll most likely always fall from the edges. Personally I'd trade both Muspelheim and Carnival edge for BoT. You barely use muspelheim post 120 as well while you could use BoT forever.[/quote]
Rushing is actually pretty dam useful for Shads o_o
It'll be so much easier to get monsters into a pile of coins, and it's useful in general to get a mob together.
It also helps us improve our boss soloing ability. You'll DEFINITELY use a rush move past 120. It's useful for a LOT of situations.
Carnival Edge for BoT was a bit of a 1v1 for mobbing trade off.
Our training style will change a bit, but I'm liking CE. It's nothing like Phantom Bl0w at all, I'm not sure where anyone's getting this from.
It's an improved version of Savage Bl0w.
Phase Dash sucks. It's a poor substitute for both of those skills. "HURR NOW YOU CAN MOVE AND MOB AND RUSH".
The movement is different, the enemy movement is different, the mobbing pushes you forward unless you jump so it chains poorly with other skills, and we really don't need a rush move as badly as some people make it seem.
All the other parts of the update are good, though.
NUUUUUUUUUU assaulter!

[quote=bubblecup118]Not really. Carnival edge just seems like savage blow from 2nd job, just with 2 extra hit/ Muspelheim, GMS calls it Phase Dash is a nice rush skill.[/quote]

[quote=unit1kcv]sorry i have never played a shad before so, explain, how does assaulter work PRE and POST update?[/quote]

No more Naruto involved in MapleStory
Dojo will never be the same QQ (My favorite activity on my shad)
T.T. I dont use assualter in LHC anymore but I am so gonna miss it. Especially BoT!
[quote=Oshawott]Assaulter becomes a rush type skill. Similar but it's a completely different concept in forms of usage..[/quote]

Ill definately mis assualter, BoT helped in 3rd job tons..cheif dits will be meso explosion oriented in 3rd job I guess? They moved greed to 3rd job, toggled pick pocket, rush move, c.edge to generate mesos.
im only training with BOT and Assaulter until the update
I'll be crying in a corner T-T
Shads look pretty boring without them >.<
Or.. assaulter, anyway ;o
We get to use steal to chain with Bstep now, yay x(
WAIT WHAT there is no more assaulter or some type of variation of it? That was the reason i made a shad all these years ago...
Im def not with the new pro skills coming im glad there gone (:
Assaulter definitely, BoT I don't really use it anymore. :s
I'm going to miss it D;
Bye bye BoT and Assaulter.
