Party Shield? LMAO So what enemies laugh at our Party Shield and deal flat damage to us anyways? Because one day I summoned an Elite Boss and I was like "pls nu I just want to train" and it was the warrior dude so I was like being a coward and trying to poke him with BKB every once in awhile. I thought I could use Party Shield and be all safe n sound u kno what im sayin? So, I place Party Shield and the dude just stands there and LAUGHS for like 20 seconds. He teleports behind me and said "nothin personnel kid" and then kills me. WHAT. I WAS LAGGING TOO OK? STUPID SHIELD! Of course, I know 1HKO moves would hit regardless, (though I think they deal reduced damage?) Nowadays I pretty much only use Party Shield on old bosses and to brb in trai

Learning Finishing Blow makes Battle BurstTele unusable? Right, so I discovered something odd while leveling my Battle Mage. Before hitting level 100, I was using Battle Burst+Teleport frequently. It was a lot of fun and I loved the mobility it provided. But after hitting 4th job, I noticed I couldn't use Teleport during Battle Burst's animation anymore. Instead I had to wait for the animation to end (or use FB) before I could tele again. Trying to figure out what changed, I bought an SP reset scroll. I put my SP back in my 1st-3rd job skills and, once again, I could Battle Burst+Tele normally. So I knew one of my 4th job skills was causing Battle Burst to act screwy. My plan was to go down the list and figure out the offending skill, and a

BaM Hyper Skills I recently started playing a battle mage. I'm loving telecast. It's possibly the most unique attacking style in the game. I have one question, though? Does anyone else feel like our passive hyper skills are useless? What are we supposed to be putting points into? I feel like the only hyper skills worth any mention are the cooldown reduction on Dark Genesis and the one that gives our FA higher dmg while Dark Genesis is on cooldown? The aura hypers are meh because there's hardly a situation where I would use another aura over yellow aura, and the hypers that buff party shield... like I don't even use that skill often. What gives? What are you guys putting your points into? Also can someone explain Master of Death? From what I

Dark element and elemental staves this post is just to clarify that battle mages having many of their skills changed to have the dark element will not affect bams using elemental staves. As noted in this post basilmarket. com/forum/2271732/1/Elemental_Wands_and_Staves_Guide.html (would post the url w/out a spaces but im a new member)" Elemental Wands/Staves do not affect the damage of Dark spells; such as Dark Fog and Killing Wing.". So in conclusion, to that one guy who's name i forgot who was wondering about this in that one post in which the title i forgot: we good. if i am wrong please tell me i started working on an elemental staff for my bam <3

Char Cards/BaM 5th Job Changes I haven't seen any BaM threads about what we're getting in the upcoming fifth job :O So I figured I'd just make one so we at least have a place to talk about it :< Are you guys excited about the return of union aura as much as I am? :D Would this return make buff duration more needed than +1 speed inner? :o Oh and what character card sets do you guys have set up? I'm having trouble finding a solid set to use for myself. Currently my set-up is: Kanna/Luminous/Evan Hayato/MM/Kinesis BT/Shade/Demon Avenger

hyper skill allocation So I have a BaM in reboot and i was wondering where to put my hyper skills, Ayumilove suggests dark genesis additional reinforced, all 3 party shields and dark aura reinforce. But to be honest i really dont use party shield that much and I think that hyper line is pretty boring, I was thinking of doing Dark aura reinforce Weakening aura reinforce (the ele res reduction makes me do a lot more damage to gollux, magnus, hilla etc) And all 3 into dark genesis, is this skill point usage viable at all because to be honest it seems more appealing to me.
