Bowmaster

Does Nexon even know about the glitched skills?

I keep hearing that bowmaster's AFA and armor break are glitched... but looking on their website, they don't note it in the "known issues" section. I do however see "The Wind Archer skill 'Trifling Wind III' does not activate against certain bosses." ... which gets me thinking, maybe they don't know about it yet... unless it was already fixed... otherwise time to flood the forums?

[url=http://maplestory.nexon.net/news/maintenance/announcements/00FV9/known-issues-updated-january-30-2014?nxid=6]Using the Bow Master skill 'Arrow Blaster' can potentially cause the client to disconnect. The Bow Master skills 'Final Attack: Bow', 'Advanced Final Attack', and 'Armor Break' do not activate when using the skills 'Hurricane' or 'Arrow Blaster'.[/url]

Seriously, this MysteryMask girl, she's a keeper.

@twopointonefour: probably because they have to test that themselves and didn't have time given when reported. If its not in the next update...then

And they still didn't put the AFA/Armor break bugs on the known issues list.

Hmm, a new Community Manager. It won't be long until they get the boot like Hime, Girasol, and Aurtax if they're being helpful.

I think you should listen for AFA, it makes the same noise as a normal attack on a mob. Count how many armor breaks occur while you're holding down hurricane or blaster. It's still broken.

Yes, but having a few seconds added onto a skill that lasts 200 secs and has a 200 sec cooldown is way less annoying than having a skill that should work every five seconds instead work only every ten seconds.

I recommend everyone post in this thread weekly.

If it's not fixed in KMS, there's a pretty good chance that it's not going to get fixed here. If Nexon NA does manage to fix, there's a good chance that they will eventually overwrite any of these fixes because of copy-paste so it will get back to getting glitched.

I have a thread on Nexon Forums. Considering the number of ppl that submitted tickets, bumps to front page, and number of views, they are at least aware of it. I believe KMS was bugged for awhile and took awhile to fix...at least I THINK its fixed.

Yup, MM's have had it especially rough. Remember the FA bug that plagued Warriors and other classes associated with it? That took months to fix, and some are still not fully fixed I believe. What about all Dodge Rate skills being broken back in 1.41 (September)? That took over a month to fix. What about all of the Hayato and Kanna glitches since coming to gMS from jMS? Some are still broken. BM's AFA and Armor Piercing are on a long list of issues pending a fix, so who knows when it'll be done?

Remember all those months Illusion Step didn't work at all for marksmen and all those months pierce would disconnect you if you broke the damage cap on the 7th hit and beyond or all those years Snipe's cooldown was artificially lengthened due to server latency issues?

It's been a month and a half; don't get your hopes up; the key to enjoying this game is low expectations.
