Any truth to that? I just heard from a few guildies that apparently they're making this change over at the chinese version.

I got an archer in the works already for the soul purpose of making a 5aps char (and they're the cheapest to do so, sue me) and ima rage if there's any truth to this b:angry

Then b:cry and cut myself.

Did anyone hear anything about this or what >.<

Much appreciated.

    It's not really the cheapest way to do it. More versatile sure, but cheaper? You need to get two lunar weapons and refine them both.
    I post in forums. This one and others. That's why I post.

    I heard Fists/Claws are both going to be Archer-only

    Some guy told me they've already done it on the Chinese servers.

    I heard that they were removing the skill tree from BMs and giving those skills to barbs. So they can more efficiently tank. Or so I heard... from someone who knows someone who plays on the Chinese servers who knows a GM who said they were discussing it on the forum. Or something like that. b:chuckle

    They're also giving barbs mage skills.

    My entry level goal: TT99 wrists + TT99 whatever for set bonus, rank top, claws, cape and demon spark. I wanna be a good DD, not the main 5aps tank. I'm not Asterelle =P

    If I end up liking the archer that much (and they are helluva fun I gotta admit) I might just ditch the cleric and go all the way with it though I admit XD

    A bm would need a lvl6/7 tome or nirvana pants to get the same interval. Thats saving 150-200mil just there. Both if going for 5aps which is over 400mil. Not to mention having to get 2 TT99 LA ornaments which is a pure waste to a bm for everything but the -int bonus, adding to the overall expense.

    And how many bms do you know that are pure fist? Most have GX/dragonhunts + claws, if not all of the weapons.

    So yes I would say a lot cheaper.

    But I'm drifting off topic, I take it the rumor is just a bunch of bollocks then. Ty ppl <3

    *goes back to leveling the smexy archer*

    This would never matter. It is obvious people want OP stuff that is considered as "good". People would call fists on a BM fail because they are considered useless without -intervals. Or call fist BMs fail because they are using skills that costs chi/spark instead of using spark burst. Fists are still the most dissed weapon ingame, swords following fists afterwards. Reality is people are using OP things and newbies become fail thanks to the slave mentaility. Skilled players are just decreasing. It is becoming the one that pours so much money and just using demon spark is considered good now.

    By "using skills that cost chi/spark", he means Mage Bane and Vacuous Palm.

    That's why I said half-decent. Otherwise I would have said great.
