BM New Buddha skill

When i saw this skill months ago on patch note i knew that i was going full vit support class bm when it reached here simple because the ranged cc on dragon rising with sword/poleblade and the overall too much chi cost now to pull red glyph combos makes bm cc + damage hard to pull in mass pk unless you hit that paramount or chi pot constantly, 1v1 still alright just like old times.

Problem is that on pwcn bm is a Support class, bms will be playing support with aps purge/rend build simple because its the meta on pwcn for bms, and as we know, they work around their version not ours, so putting it simple, most bms on pwcn use r8rr, reaching capped def with r8rr gear is not really that easy, while in our version is piece of cake, so this buddha + the fact bms won't be doing any serious damage is totally balanced for them, very sht for our version but there's a light in the end of the tunnel.

if you checked the recent release of the skill revamp for bms on pwcn that will release in a few weeks, they completely changed how bm works, buddha will be changed into a deaden skill, which will support a offensive playstyle, not to mention bms getting a 400% base damage skill on myriad sword stance, roar doing damage, some nerfs, some buffs, all i can say for now is full vit bms with recent changes is pretty strong frontline, but i prefer playing offensive myself, i guess i gotta wait for next update in 2020 and work on a gof sword.

Ive been reading these skills updates since long ago and noone mentioned those nerfs on chi xP

how did u miss that?
its been the talking point among bms for months on ET that we are getting chi nerf
but atleast they gave use range paralize to compensate

I think not that sad if you have a g17.4 sword and paramount.
Sword that no one has

Metal damage are good too against expel but now BM has to play 4/6 blue glyph...

The reel problem with this update is farming , now only CS ers can grow

I am not sure get interest to continue to play pwi.

If you like using Sutra you shouldn't combine these skills. I don't understand PWI's obsession with 5 year long cooldowns on skills, but those skills virtually don't exist, so unless the new skill is extremely OP I would never part ways with Sutra.

Im olny interested that in grup of GMs who planed chages was some bm player? Coz it look like some guy just read descrypiton on skils and make mix without knowing anything about gameplay with BM. Paralise skill wich with gray gliph make this class playble again coz let you safe some chi for atack with red gliphed river avalanche was nerfed with some usless s hit. How Bm need to even suport team with stun and HF if he will be all time on 0 chi. Now bm need to play evry skill on blue Gliph to get chi so mean sorry man you dont make dmg.Next thing is new diamond sutra work only for BM(no more posibility to protect sq with budda guard) it increase psy and mag def (why not deff lvl like sb), you must spend one spark to use it and cd is 5 min
it will work on PVE but on PVP its usles plus you dont do dmg coz you 80% less psy atack and you got all blue gliphed skils to get chi you need so you do 0 dmg.
In my opinion someone realy heate BM class,

Yea thats a point. From wapon wich bm got r9 is only axes why if they force us to use 4 kinds of wpon they didnt give us rest of wep r9. Im ok with using all kinds wepons in fight its make bm unic but it doesnt change this how much chi bm spend on evry skill.

I personally think the exact opposite. It's us that know literally nothing about the BM class. I can see a world where we have G17r5 Poleblade/Sword/Fists/Axes and we can optimize our rotations by using different weapons for different situations that would make BM feel infinitely more satisfying to play than it ever has. Truth is playing BM but only ever using Axes (and sword for 1 chi skill) has never felt satisfying to me. I originally wanted to play BM because they use 4 weapons which would make for a very complex class, and instead everyone on PWI just agreed to play the amazingly dumbed down version and only ever using Axes (which was mostly pushed by r9 only providing Axes). Now G17 gear exists it means we (and Perfect World) can move away from this dumbed down model and push us into using all 4 weapons, which is why they are rebalancing all skills to have different effects when used with different weapons.

My big problem is that, as much I would love to explore a world where I can mix-max using 4 weapons, it's far to expensive. Even if I KNEW it would be good it's too expensive. But to spend that money just to TRY if it's good, yeah hell fkn no.

Yes BM would be OP with all 4 G17S5 Weps, but ur forgettting one minor detail... It takes over 3 years to get 1 G17S5 so 4 will need 12 years.... Ye but then 1 of us who never stoped doing daily after 12 years will be OP. Seems PWI left us "some hope". Thou it feels more like a kick in the balls to me >.>

And ofcourse forgot to mention that smite on Pike dont stun anymore and dont give 30 chi like it used to. So forget to get 1,5 spark in 4 hits on sword chi combo. So you wont be anymore hf monky coz you wont have chi for that you need 2 spark for cast hf and if you are atacked coz you close range class you need to use antistun (one spark) New sutra (one spark) roar of pride (35 chi) you already dont have for hf , afther 2 hits you got 2 sparks for hf but you must use dragon rising to paralise to keep stunlock (sorry 80 chi gone) NO HF SORRY. And this 20m range of paralise its nice but to use it you must come close to target to use anothers skils so you got 2 sec less in paralise so you wont charge chi.

IF dev's even paying attention to this thread, lets keep it simple, we the pure players of Bm's have stuck thru this class from when it was the trending class to the forgotten class. Meaning we play'd this class for years some of us even a decade. We are trying to put it that the lack of a reasonable chi return has crippled this class far too much. Far as the New Buddah Varjra wtf you call it, meh funny how we are considered a support class when the skill is a self buff. Normal Buddah saves squad mates at times, if any enhanced was needed, a few seconds longer would have been nice.

I agree with what someone said above, the history of Bm was always based on a few ppl. Most who never took the class all the way. The wiki info so outdated, and probably the best BM guide the forum had is well outdated as well.

This new Battle Royal pwi has goin, with everyone entering with equal gear. Theres alot of Bm's making normal NP level players left dumbfound in their seats. Every class has a legitimate pro's and con's prolly except Sins, i still feel PWI devs play sins lol cause they favored way too much.

One thing I do want to ask to the sage Bm's out there, how is the chi management on their side?

Have leveled another BM up to learn Vajra. It is its own buff. Hard to do extensive testing given he's in tt99. Did find the defense cannot be purged. But the healing you get can be purged.

Anything you guys want to be tested?

Asking again if there is anything you'd like to see me test Vajra with. I can't think of anything beyond purge.
