Guys, guess the GMs have finally take action against the APS users.

I think with the APS craze going down now, we psys will be more appreciated into squads. :D Getting into squad now will be abit easier.

What do you all think? Better for psys or will it stay the same as before the change? And what you will predict be the outcome now?

Wow, I see you... Now you don't... isn't that trolling? b:shutup

    Hmm, hard to say, as 5 attacks per second, even with the reduction, is still pretty nice when they spark. I see a small, so minute we may not even notice it at certain times of the day, decrease in the accepting of 5 attacks per second players.

    Well, the penalty is quite a huge amount if ya ask me. -5% damage and -20% accuracy when APS reaches to 4.00, considering they don't spark.


    Direct from Update Page:

    Attack Speed changes
    Once a player surpasses 4.0 attack speed, whether passively or via a buff, they will incur a -5% damage penalty as well as a -20% accuracy penalty.

    The nerf is actually non-existent, everything is pretty much the same. If they nerfed aps down to 3.33 then we would maybe see some visible difference, but aps would still be dominant pve. They messed it up either way you look at it, no single class is supposed to deal ten times more damage per second than the other class and no class is supposed to be able to 2shot endgame bosses...

    while it is a small nerf, the dps of 5aps is still too high for psychics to replace a 5aps.
    imho it mostly benefits debuffing/buffing classes such as venos, seekers, barbs and mayybe clerics (havent done the math).

    according to asterelle the accuracy nerf hasn't been observed; and I dont think that it will be noticeable: afterall there are rings with +acc

    Nevertheless, coming back after a year I am quite pleased with seeing so many WCs LF for psychics for caster nirvy; during my first year of playing I have seen only 3-5 wc asking for psysb:chuckle

    @enddo: it says "Once a player surpasses 4.0 attack speed, whether passively or via a buff"
    spark is considered a buff
    you only purge once #yopo

    I love psychics in my squad for FF!

    SoV is awesome, and psychics have amazing AOEs and nukes to make pulls painless! :D

    BM HF, psy whack AOEs with other DDs = mobs dead.
