    From those who tested things out on PW CN, any kinda news on this part of the teaser website ?

    "and many existing abilities have been tweaked for balancing purposes"

    Did something really get changed ??
    Proud supporter of the new expansion. Sure it has it's share of bugs, like any games. But for a pure farmer/grinder, that's a whole lot of new mobs to go beat up b:chuckle

    He probably means the manual patch which is released a while before the maintenance starts. This allows you to start downloading and installing it so you can play from the second the servers open again.

    I'm a little curious about that as well, but it's usually about a day before the update.

    During genesis expansion i think the manual patch was ready 48hours b4 expansion, hope they do something similar this time. Downloading about 1GB+ will take quite a lot of time for me b:surrender

    Erm.. One tiny question about the new skills..

    Exactly what would the mystics get?
    I assume every class get something new, meaning we most likely dont get another healing skill, or just another magic attack skill.
    Maybe we get the ability to have some sort of pets ? No wait, mystics already have that.

    And a meele, or physical skill would be patethic to have unless the damage is decided with amount of magic attack..

    No matter how much i twist my brain, i just dont get what mystics will have.

    Most classes get 5 new skills, Mystics get 6. Squad buff: increase damage dealt by skills by 20%. Squad Buff: Increase healing effects by 20%, healing potion effects by 30%. AoE Revive. AoE unstealth skill (using third eye to see through stealth). AoE uber heal. And a skill that absorbs part of a target's healing effects for yourself , including charms (this skill is upgradeable by one lv, and both lvs benefit from soulforce). No offensive skills, but I am very happy with these, gotta lv my Mystic now.

    Thank you.
    But the AoE Revieve is bit confusing.
    I assume its just like the same buff mystics already got, but when using a level 10 Ressurect skill, it drains around half my mana, on one person.

    The unstealth skill, when i first heard about it, i understood it was a skill that let the mystic see the person in stealth, but is it so that they force them out of stealth so everyone can see them?

    And the last skill i dont think i understood at all.

    AoE Revive is likely to be the same as the Resurrect buff.

    The 3rd Eye forces was described to force all stealth targets within 26 meters of the user out of stealth and lasts 6 seconds.

    The last skill absorbs a portion of your target's healing from items (HP food/charms) and skills for yourself.

    I dont get why clerics get attack skills. They are healers and they BB 90% of time in squads, they dont need attack, they need defense because most of them are 1 shot from bosses. I can see there will be "dd cleric" not healers anymore, that really sucks.
    Give them level defense or some kind of physical defense better then they are now. The only good skill is no exp lost because they res us but no one can res them and as they die alot they need it.

    Answer: Mystics are the new clerics now.

    Haha! Well sometimes is true.. except BB i had some great mystics in squad just as good as a cleric. But it was good to give clerics some defense because they always die so easy Maybe they were thinking of clerics solo a little at small levels and do the missions easily.

    It's not that hard now for clerics to solo at lower levels if they know how to heal themselves and mystics tend to be just as squishy as clerics. lol

    mh...

    so 200k coins + 60x Corona Emblems for initial G15 weapon
    and 150k coins + 45x Corona Emblems for recast G15 weapon

    hopefully Corona Emblems don't drop as bad as raptures (considering 10 man squads...?)


    at least: there will be light armor helmets ^^
