Kishin Shoukan Effectiveness Increased

Good news everyone. Kishin will be buffed during the next maintenance to be closer to what it was before.

@sadvirgin: they'll release a lag totem to reduce lag time to 1 second

@vicetone That was their plan all along. Insert lag to make us beg for mercy instead of beg for kishin.

1. Nerf Kishin a month prior, or a bug as they say

2. Take something that was a class-exclusive skill and make it a cash shop item. Introduce Frenzy Totem to philo so people would spend lots of money to gamble a chance to get one of the latest OP items

3. Apologize to community and say as compensation, we will buff Kanna's current Kishin (reduces the respawn time to 3 seconds) so it's definitely a buff. But still a nerf compared to before the bug (reduced the respawn time to 1 seconds). Notice they don't give any specifics beside, "these reduced spawn rates should bring the skill a little bit closer to how it functioned before the legacy issue." Most likely reduced spawn rate to 2 seconds.

4. Community celebrates. OMG NEXON LISTENED TO US! Based Nexon.

Good job Nexon for posting about the issue on the front page of the website instead of just the forums.[/url]

Sasuga Nexon.

What is it right now 3 seconds to respawn compared to the "glitched" 1 second?

I would say they probably brought it to 2 seconds.

I guess that's a step in the right direction, seeing that nearly every MS community caught on fire for the past month.
