    I think you might want to try a knife, they work much better than forks.
    I used to wonder why I would have these scary dreams every month. About the wolf, who kept running through town. And as I wondered, I also thought about how I couldn't remember having those dreams before being bitten by this very big dog...



    But now I know the truth.
    And I am not afraid.

    My lvl 10 Solid Shield I believe use to reduce dmg received by 60% and now only reduces dmg by 35%. Additionally, extreme poison use to pull one mob at a time, and it now no longer serves this function. I used both of these skills regularly and now they are both nerfed. The details on the updated client mention several changes to genie skills, but they do not say anything about these two skills. Could a GM plz explain the reasoning behind this, or at least acknowledge that it occured?

    It is one thing to nerf skills to balance a game, it is another to pull the wool over the eyes of loyal customers.

    Random Programmer Dude #2: "Yea, same here. What can we do to **** them over? Hm... I know! Let's take their genie specific skill and **** it up! That should knock them down a couple pegs. Hm... Solid Shield maxxed is currently 60%. Should we reduce it to 50%? Nah, still too high. 40%?... 35% it is!"


    Random Programmer Dude #1: "And while we're at it, let's give BM's a totally awesome skill that makes them almost immune to damage!"


    *works out the details of the skill*

    Random Programmer Dude #1: "Yes... This is perfect. This will **** up any barbs trying to fight a BM."

    Random Programmer Dude #2: "Hey, you know what would be funny? Let's name this skill 'Balance!' How ironic is that?

    it seems like they really decreased the dmg reduction to 35% from solid shield but i guess having a str a build genie makes it stronger :p there was a mage at lvl90 fighting against me jus 3 days ago and he used spark and i used solid shield while i was in tiger form and he was jus hitting me for 200 so i can say that solid shield works effectively if you have a str genie. Although, I wonder how much dmg he would do to me if he sealed me before using spark cuz I transformed into tiger as soon as I saw the spark :p but I think it wouldnt make any big difference stillb:bye

    havent read all pages of this, but there's a skill my cleric's genie has SPECIFICALLY for the extra ability it USED to have...

    skill called blade of supreme heat. used to do ridiculously low dmg at lv1 and reduce the target's metal resistance 20%. now they've taken out the metal resistance lowering bit of it and along with that went the entire reason i put affinity for that skill and spent the spirit to get it on my genie.
    i'm pro all classes, and against none in particular..
    but the age old QQ about venos is just that. OLD.
    QQ'd about a nix lately? check out this thread n tell me who's "OP" lol..

    Before the patch i had 35% resist from the Solid Shield on my Genie, now after the patch (I havnt touched my genie the whole time) I have 20% resist from Solid SHield, so yes they nerfed it
