Quote from unforgiven: “Hi, If you consider that you will have harder time to solo a boss, which will make partying more attractive as a side-effect, wouldn't this be a valuable change? ” I agree with you on that matter - but there's the problem that bosses rewards will always be the same, and that's definitely not attractive.

As the others said, I don't wanna whine before the new beta comes out, but I don't really like these severe changes concerning the bonus "chance of dealing critical hits". I'm thinking of PvE mostly: keep in mind that mobs and bosses will still be the same, am I wrong? Destroying metins will now require much more time for every class; even gaining exp might be really difficult, from now on. You could think that playing in groups will solve the problem. Well, that may be true, but exp-points gain…

While I'm really excited about Archers and Shamans changes - and I can't wait to test them (as it seemed to me they had been forgotten for a long time, in favour of Warriors/Suras/Daggers/Lycans), I'm somewhat unconvinced about the Critical Hits update. Especially the one concerning PvE. Chance of dealing critical hits is quite important in PvE and while this change may help making things harder for players who want to play in solo, it still makes an important bonus almost useless. Don't forget …

Hello there, since you said that you would still be reading board messages, I wanted to discuss with you aIl about what I believe to be a really important matter - evenif it's not directly connected to PvP balancing. I'm trying to face a pretty difficult subject here, especially considering I'm not a native english speaker - but I'll try to be as clear as possible. There are several hack-users on my community and they tend to be quite widespread during special events, such as the latter Okey Car…

I actually fail to understand what kind of confirmations is Webzen waiting for. a) Chance on piercing hits bonus is not behaving as it should and it gives extra damage above 100% - if that was intended to be the brand new solution concerning PvP balancing, welcome to Earth dear Webzen, it's not; b) Lycans can get up to +60% piercing hits just by casting a mere skill and will always be ahead of the other classes under this perspective, both in PvP and PvE. The details tab talks pretty much for it…

@Testreg: that's exactly what I was referring to. The dews-making system, especially the one concerning Young/Bo Waters is pretty troublesome and it hasn't been changed for YEARS. Recently, many windows allow players to interact just by right-clicking in their inventory in order to load the items, but it seems they've forgotten of the older dews system. _ @unforgiven: I understand your answer as well and I guess you're right. However, you all should also realize that beta testings represent the …

Please consider briefly illustrating these proposals to WebZen, it would help into making gameplay way more fluent. @unforgiven @Comkra @Spark

That's quite a list of issues! By the way: Quote from Aworan: “I could not find a way to enable bonuses of DSS and the pet at the same time, with neither sequence of usage. ” I don't know if I'm off-topic but there's actually a case in which you can get both the power-ups from Khan pet and DSS Ruby - or, rather, you get the highest "damage numbers" when using DSS and Khan pet. That happens just if the ruby has got average damages. I guess it's because percentage values are (more or less!) proper…

You could have at least put some more emphasis on the actual damage range. First of all, I wouldn't go for ANY power-up while doing this kind of tests. I can't see if one of your pet skills is Berserker but besides from that, I would have removed the Porky pet. Same for the emerald earrings. Although, if I were you, I'd perform this kind of test on wild dogs, because I do not know if 105 metins do have some kind of reduction factor (in combination with plain defense), it seems to me that your av…

Thanks for your time, Aworan. I just wanted to make myself clear - by the way, as I'm not a native speaker, I'm always afraid I'm not explaining things well. You may be wondering why I still keep insisting on this subject. As I already said, I don't wanna be annoying nor to abuse your patience. The fact is, I got the impression that you haven't fully understood what I'm trying to point out - or rather, that you've not been experiencing the SAME issue I'm talking about. And I'm very convinced it'…

Not to mention this: Feedback on most skill that need improvement (positive/negative) Their piercing hit base value is definitely exaggerated.

Hello? You forgot about Ninjas and Shamans, who also suffer from unexpected atk-speed cap while hitting from a horse. I agree with you with Lycans being way too overpowered and not suffering from any significant side-effects. As for Weapon Suras, they're not as effective in PvP as Warriors are. And as for this: Quote from Signo: “With full resist both arrow and lighting i cannot use berserk in grotto2. ” Some arrow evading percentage might help, you know. I see tons of body Warriors not sufferin…

So, @Aworan. Here's my test, as I promised. Character: male Archer Ninja, lv. 93 Equipment: Devil chakram, 49% avg damage Tissue belt +9 Blue armor (it doesn't provide any atk-value bonus). Extras: - Khan pet - DSS Brilliant Ruby, wielding +270 atk on the "air" set; - DSS Excellent Ruby, wielding +18% avg dmg, on the "earth" set. ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ (A) Basic damage. I transformed into a Savage Infantry and tried the actual damage on wild dogs. I got several results, all ranging betwee…

This seems a personal matter rather than something concerning an improvement of general gameplay, so I guess you should contact the official support. Yet, it's the first time I hear of avg damages not working. Are you sure you made a good comparison? First of all, you could check in the details tab what happens to average damages: do they actually change, while wearing the two different swords? Wild dogs are generally chosen as "lab-rats", but it'd be pointless to perform such a test if one of t…

Quote from Yemon: “As soon as some one can hit you down on the ground and make you fly is it over. ” That's actually why it is so difficult. You should consider that every other class could go for the "emergency" horse mount if needed, that's an option. For archers is actually the ONLY way to avoid auto-attack assaults and melee attacks. Not to mention PvE. Anyway, I seriously hope they'll propose something to Webzen.

Quote from Signo: “As i sad i play with warriors and now unfortunatley this is the weakest class in the game now both pvp and pvm side. ” This is SO untrue, but everyone already knows that. Just imagine a warrior without Aura of the sword and Berserk - that's basically what a Ninja is, in PvE. As for Dark Protection, yeah, the description is not entirely correct, but the skill seems to be working pretty well to me. Improving the skill actually affects the SP restoration - and it's really importa…

Hey again, @Aworan! Where were we left off? Quote from Aworan: “A small info that will explain almost all screenshots is that your base damage is quite low and you only gain additional damage bonus which is added on top at different points in time (or in the calculation). ” This is not really true. I made some other experiments and, well, the SAME odd behaviour is occurring even by wearing a pair of Devil Chakram with 49% avg damages - I think they give a considerable boost to my attack value. T…

Any news about this subject, @Aworan? Please don't leave us.

Come on. They are trying to cover up a bug by making it appear as a brand new content, while singing the usual rhyme, "nyah nyah, deal with it, that's the way it is". Just out of curiosity, does Webzen actually take into account feedbacks? My perspective is really straight-forward: chance on dealing piercing hits should work in the same way for every class. I don't see how this so-called update would benefit PvP (or PvE) balancing.

I'd also like to add my contribution, though it's really difficult to demonstrate. Maybe Yemon who's really used to killing Beran-Setaous and other monster may give us a confirmation. I've got the feeling that "damage absorbed by hp" doesn't really work on bosses. Am I wrong?
