Why are Black mages so upset about PVP?

[nugglets]

Eh, while I see both sides to this you have to admit that having a BRD in the opposing party will pretty much mean a BLM should never get off more than one spell per Swiftcast/Surecast cool down rotation.

That is kinda messed up.

Coming from a veteran of several NCSoft games, this made this one laugh. NCSoft is far worse than SE when it comes to listening to their player base.

In my 7 years playing Lineage 2 I can tell you that NCSoft customer support and dedication to their games is second to none.

Which company has voluntarily shut down the most mmo games in the entire market...hmmmm...They're dedicated to SOMETHING, at least.

Is the BRD going to focus on the BLM...or the healer?

Honestly, I feel there is a better job for mage-killing, specifically Casters, than BRD. Better burst DPS, stuns, new INT-killing skill, instant gap closer.

However, you BLM are safe for at least a few seconds...I'm going healer-killing first. If I get close enough to Spineshatter, whatever mage gets hit is gonna die fast.

I do agree that i'll at least have the time it takes for the healer to die to get some spells off, that's for sure.

This has prob already been said, i didn't look. All of the casters get a pvp skill that has 10 seconds of no spell interupt. u might not always be able to go uninterupted, but when you do you drink dos equis.

My point is you don't even have to focus. With the laggy re-cast system after an interrupt and the 3.5s cast-time to get up AF3 all a BRD has to do is switch to the BLM every ~4 seconds and completely negate them. You don't have to worry about killing them, you can render them useless with minimal effort while focusing your attack elsewhere.

But basically all you're saying is that almost any class can easily nullify the BLM, which I agree with.
