Again your lack of knowledge of the job just shines on through brighter then the goddess Altana herself. Increasing our range was needed as every AoE would one shot us and our range was far shorter then most mages when it came to it. Apogee was given to us just as everyone else got new abilities for their jobs but ours is a double edged sword, yes we can do 2 bloodpacts back to back but the first will cost double the mp cost which is great for short fights but long term the cost was too high. The new bloodpacts most were junk as shiva's Crystal Blessing gives +250tp on weaponskills... so like what 1 hit for a DD? as for the BP rages they were needed as when level cap was being raised from 75-99 some avatars didn't get new bloodpacts and most are cost too much mp for such a lacking attack. Buffing old bloodpacts??? LMFAO i would love to see that, like said many times most of our wards are still stuck in the days of 75 which would only take them raising the cap to fix and most our rage BP's aren't worth using as they do such minimal damage they are not worth our timers. As for Skillchain properties i'm not sure when that was done but weaponskills had two properties so there was no need for avatars to be left with one, it was done to bring avatars to a similar level as other jobs.
