Thread: Did SE Buff WP?

WP is the same its the class nerfs that help stopped speedruns. AK is waaaayyyyy easier though

Just you.. I had a non SR run last night without a bard and we ended it in 13 minutes without any of the standard giant pulls... I wasn't even aware until I checked the time remaining... In terms of taking hits, I was definitely being hit for less (Warrior) and I could still LoS the crap out of the slime boss' fire attack. The tonberry was just as easily ignored as I ran through him and LoS'ed him around the corner. You may have experienced a train effect... player A aggroed berry and runs.. then b and c follow.. tonberry aggro swaps to b and then to c, followed by d... resetting the chase timer and any successful LoS you had initial performed... It happens.. it's frustrating.. it might even make you want to take out your frustrations IRL... but the occurrence was very much possible pre-patch.

Yeah I had one follow a group from the room with the three skeletons and a switch to the Baravois room cutoff. -.- That sucker was out for blood.

They definitely Nerfed AK. Groups missing, mobs dying faster.

Additionally, I don't know if it was the buff to defiance or not, but after a couple of flashes/overpowers you could not pull hate of my Warrior with a crowbar. i90 BLM didn't get above 50% enmity even when focusing down mobs I wasn't particularly maintaining hate on.

On the otherside i55 (Sipahi) was dropping from AK.

What drops from WP now?

The enmity on Overpower was buffed.

AK Nerf was in the patch notes. Some chests there drop potions now. New players will never know the old AK. Sadly.
