The 90 Gap

Post by pakakid »

Well is it true that at 90 gap euro and chinese will be more balanced? Also that means rogue will be a little more weaker.

90 gap is only possible in the next cap, the char would be prety weak IMO (No skills) you would make some decent sp though.

Rants that I'm sick posting [concerning euros not getting new skills.]

Quoteth myself:

EDIT: Trying to make the links show up nicely -.-. gimme a sec EDIT2: DONE

Who said euros won't get new skills? At the 90 cap, Warriors get something called Ultimate Screen [the ONLY new skill for warrior] Not like it means anything, the other skills will still continue leveling up. So sure, a 2h warrior might not get a cool new skill to replace daredevil, but instead of daredevil lvl 1, he'll be using daredevil lvl 3.

Clerics:
Holy Recovery Division
Holy Group Recovery
Holy Group Reverse
Reverse Immolation
Soul Deity

Bards:
Clout March
Curious Temptation
Cure Music
Mana Orbit
Dancing of Vitality

Warlock:
Combat Ravage
Death Trap
Curse Sight
Recovery Bind

Rogue:
Hunting Point

Wizard:
Nothing

This list is only that of actually new skills. Old skills still continue leveling up... The skills have been developed [ksro has euro skills up to 100 now] and there's no reason not to include them. This whole "gotta balance out the euro race" shit seems to be coming out of nowhere. If euros are supposedly so screwed at the next cap to balance it out, why did euros get their full skills sets at this cap? I would like to see the source of this suspicion everybody is having. Remember, the reason we didn't have the 80 skills for chinese at this cap right off the bat was because they simply weren't developed yet. At the time, ksro was sitting at the 90 cap with 70 skills still. The skills for ksro were updated and beta tested and we got them immediately. Since the entire skill set for both euros and chinese have now been beta tested up to the 100 cap there's NO reason that euros would not get updated skill sets/upgrades to their existing skills.

Personally I dont think this is true. Because just as the Chinese skills increase, so does the Europeans. Sure Chinese only gets a few new skills. I think 1 as a matter of fact, which is the Bicheon one. I actually believe that Europeans will get STRONGER. Because as the pots remain the same size, that means the damage will increase and Chinese won't be able to pot up enough to survive, while the Cleric heals will increase and heal up a Euro. Just my 2 cents.

While a European increases the damage of it's last book of skills. So basically hit EVEN harder.

Finally, people who actually reason and don't pull shit out of their asses... You have no idea how often I end up arguing [not much of an argument, they don't concede and are stubborn as hell] about the fact that euros will get a skill increase at the next cap. Where they get it from that they won't I have no idea.

Only reason some notice they wont be as strong is because of the people who played on other SRO versions.

Simple facts: Euros update their skills, just as chinese. The pots will still be x-large for BOTH classes, but since euros rely on clerics not pots, that will favor the euros. Sosun droprate will be fixed, no more fully pimped goldbuyers. You decide.

chinese characters will become weaker against characters, who deal physical damage, cuz most chinese characters will drop cold tree (which means they drop cold buff and passive).

This does not necessarily they "notice". It could very well mean the preferance of the build amongst the people who play the server. Notice how Glaviers are very popular as well as sword and shield, even though sword and shield nuker aren't the strongest buids out there.

Simple facts: Euros update their skills, just as chinese. The pots will still be x-large for BOTH classes, but since euros rely on clerics not pots, that will favor the euros. Sosun droprate will be fixed, no more fully pimped goldbuyers. You decide.


This is basically what I said so:

+1 to you.

Euros rely on cleric for healing. Chinese rely on pots. If pots dont cut it, what do you think will happen? Chinese will seek clerics to help with auxilary healing and buffs.

Remember that the pvp grounds have change since euro came. It doesnt always have to be euro vs chinese.

Considering clerics aren't bound to Euros, Chinese rely on pots+Clerics, Euros only have clerics, so thaty doesn't really work out that way lol.

Get another cleric :). Alot of euros now like to have subs, and cleric sub tend to be a popular choice.

Note: I'm sure the threadstarter meant 90 cap not gap.

It doesnt HAVE to be euro vs chinese, but why add a nuker that does 8k nukes to the party, instead of a wizard doing 15k?

In a share xp pt, a wizard would do a better job. Chi nukers, depending on the build could do double duty, but again, not always optimal for share xp pts. A bicheon + lightning nuker, is able to function like a warlock, like a wizard, and tank for a bit like a char with bless should the need arise (its more useful for team pvp).

Euro isn't bound by the 15 sec pot delay either.. You gotta spend 300k to get 50 grains. Even though it's 4sec cool down, but its still hella better than a 15 sec delay. Useful during pvp/wars but grinding pointless.

I don´t think that with gap 90 the Europeans get weaker! Both will increase their damage and buffs. In my opinion there are more arguments, that euros will get stronger:

1. Drop rate of SOX is now fixed (Only Chinese have degree 8 SOX and make them stronger) and we get with new gap degree 9
2. some people have write it already, that the HP-pots will remain the same! That is a disadvantage for Chinese, because they depends more from the pots
3. at last … the masteries of Chinese will stay at 300. It involves that a lvl 80 full farmed chinese ( at moment 80-80-80-60) has to decrease some masteries to go for the 90 lvl. For example 90-90-90-30. At least 1 tree of the Chinese will get weaker

It wont change so much we get new gear, new weapon, new skills (most upgrades). Think of a Pure STR Blader without any blue he got 21.9k HP. That's like :shock:, think of him with full blue he will sure be unbeatable. Sure euro will get stronger to but hey why be so negative about that? It aint so hard to kill a euro if you do it the right way. If i see a cleric i aim for him right away, without a cleric a euro char are pretty much worthless. That's my 2 cents.

they have to be balanced, cuz when the 140 eventally comes euro and chinese should be fully balanced.

at least, that's if you want a fair game.

Thats why Euro especially STR chars get Cleric as subclass.To balance out the cons.

The way I see it,things will not balance out between euro and chinese,Chinese will have to keep sacrificing Mastery levels till it has only 2 trees.While Euro got every neccesary skill fused in 1/2 trees.Combined with the idea that Xtra large potions is all that's gonna be used Chinese will keep getting a bigger disadvantage.

Rogues won't get weaker as their Normal skills will get upgrades as well.Now take Cleric as sub and you'r good to go till 100+ cap.
