Hi there, i did read so many complains about so many different things after the update... i could barely understand them (only because 100 people go left this doesn't mean i can not go to the right). There were people complaining about one or two skills with longer cooldowns and some others complaining about every group now only demanding archers.


The crazy thing about this all, mostly only unhappy people post in forums, the happy ones are playing and enjoying not feeling urged to post in any forums.

But i want to see a positive thing here, so i go first:


I really liked archer from beginning but i didn't like the idea of playing archer more than another job, the patch 1.18 somehow made archer feeling more unique, i have more damage output and it feels more smooth to play, many skills you can do faster and easier now. For example wide volley you can now nearly back to back. Or now it is fine to just throw a trifucate in your attacks because it doesn't destroy your stamina anymore. There is always a weaponskill up to use.

But maybe this isn't for everyone, my "playstyle" just suits the new archer more than the stamina one.

Barrage using longer cooldown now. Thank god for it because the game changed, we have a more difficulty enmity system now, harder bosses to face, less room to cure everyone. Therefor it would really be bad if archers could spam barrage because this skill draws extra enmity and would destroy the group flow of: tank < mob < DD/healers. If you could spam barrage it would be more like tank > mob > archer < healer > rest of damaged people because the mob turns and aoe.


So yea, for me it was a great step.

anyone else like it?


And please, of course everyone can post his oppinion, also if you don't like it and have another view on things than me, but please consider using one of the other "rant about everything"-posts here, there are more than enough of em. This one should be taken positive.
