    You people basically want the game being played for you right now.

    If it has higher potency, basically it should cost A LOT more and cause lot's of enmity midbattle. The weaker one doing the opposite.

    But like I said, you like the game being played for you. A 30 minutes buff. Might as well be a selfbuff like Defender that you turn on and off..... SMH

    Glad SE doesn't listen to everything that's said on the forums.
    I guess you also love crafting because repeatedly using Standard Synthesis for hours is so much fun and "doing it yourself".

    I will agree that craft is tedious. But casting a spell? A strong spell midbattle? Having to decide in that important battle if it's worth the enmity and strong defense/mgdefense to cast it while also maybe dying for it? It's called a trade off for a reason.

    That's why I also don't like auto block. It should be Your shield is raised, you have higher defense and lower attack/acc. Your shield is down, you have lower defense but high attack/acc.

    It's called a trade off. A 30 minutes buff that uses mp? That just doesn't really seem logical IMO.

    You would have a point if:

    a) Pro/Shell were "strong spells".

    and

    b) Pro/Shell had a longer cooldown than duration, forcing you to pick key moments to use them in.

    Neither is true, so people simply cast it every four mins or so and it pisses them off.

    Do you not read what they post? They have plans in the future is what they meant by stronger buffs.

    It doesn't matter. They're still not reactive spells, so people will spam keep them up at all times and continue to be pissed if the duration is short.

    Right now when people don't refresh Pro/Shell, it's not because they have no MP or time, it's because they can't be bothered to. That's a clear as day sign of bad design right there.

    Which is why they will most likely be changing things. You do realize we can only go up to r50? There are some tiers of spells that aren't released yet because we aren't high enough in level. Just wait. They have to balance out class uniqueness and that good stuff soon.
