    suggest 500zen or nerf the damn thing

    thx

    Edit once they have this thing the other classes can say GameOver

    That's a bit excessive. So is the idea of charging like $30 for it. A Veno with a phoenix is effectively not soloable in PvP (assuming they've got half a brain), but you can still take them down if you attack them with a group.

    It is however far more powerful and unbalancing than pet rides (which are really only a time saver), and a heck of a lot more valuable than charms (which won't get used too much for a Veno once they have a meat shield or flying death machine). So... yeah I think $100 is very reasonable considering you can get the items from a boss later on (for free). Given how much people spent on the Halloween event I can assure you that a phoenix probably won't be that rare either...

    Says the level not-even-30-yet, shut up. Werefoxes get one shot without werebeast buff, no need for your dumb ideas born out of jealous ignorance.
    Ripping bite bug shafts over robe users, that's it. Everything else can pretty much ignore the pet. Most of a werefox's damage comes from the werefox not the pet.

    Afaik phoenix stats arent much higher, but it's way faster delivering the ripping bite 4m/s faster. QQ less and learn to play please.

    Seriously why do you ignorant buffoons cry about foxes so much? I have much more trouble killing archers than other werefoxes, stun -> shot -> dead. Why don't we make archers crit damage go down as their level rises? Perfect logic by your standards.

    Just fix the ******ned bug already and put phoenix in for a sane price, not the price intended for asian gamers with a 90% chance of dying in front of their pc cause they didnt sleep for 3 weeks.

    Well one side says Phoenix is overpowered.
    One side Phoenix is balanced.

    Who is right?
    So far,none!

    So lets assume it's balanced before going to conclusions which is reasonable for reasons posted below.

    Nobody showed any proof,evidence,u name it.Where's the video of a Phoenix one hitting those tanks of same level?

    And against a Mage class,mages are supposed to die or kill fast.They are not tanks.The fight is finished very fast.Mage has superior damage then all DD the Veno has a Pet to balance it out.If bleed can kill a Mage in 3 or 4 ticks,so what?If it's 1 tick I would be wow'ed into belief but so far no proof of that has been coming forth.Mages are supposed to go down in way less.Not to mention if a mage Nukes a Veno a Veno will also go down way fast making the bleed obsolete.

    If there's one thing u should complain about it's why Veno's get to be less dependant on the item mall then all the other classes.

    I don't think anybody should have to be dependent on the item mall.

    Hmmm... this is my tertiary banking mule thank you very muchb:shutup. I don't know what kind of build you use, but my veno doesn't get one shotted by most things (and I'm around your level). I agree that archers are a royal pain for a veno, yet their light armor would make them severely wounded by flesh ream (yes I've tried it), and frankly if you look at a phoenix's stats the attack is much higher than normal (plus 10k magic defense at a high level).

    Besides the game's job is to make money, and you KNOW that even at $100 we're going to see a decent number of foxes with phoenixes. And yes, killing the fox is usually a better idea, but that's what apothecary pots. Not to mention the fact that people will be selling feathers (and those Hercules's tokens) in West Arch, or the fact that you can get them as a rare drop from a high level boss. The way I see it they should charge whatever the heck they think they can get away with. If people buy they'll keep it there, if no one buys they'll lower the price (I would hope).

    I would like for anybody to rebut my points
    As for the amount needed for the Phoenix I agree.Whatever people want to pay for it should be the price.Though I don't expect that should be over 50$.

    just for the record dears... @lvl 90

    Crystal Mag

    Kowlin

    Herculion

    Pheonix
    HP:3446 ATTACK:4096 PDEF:8952 MDEF:10742 m/s:10.9

    There are the stats, assuming the pets are at lvl 90 dears. sooo b:pleased for you one shot claims? yeah if the pet outleveled ya by like 10-20 levels or so. You know, how gankers do it dear.

    Far as the claims of veno making money money money. that is more player skill then class skill so we can burst that bubble b:victory

    far as money? this pet as the herculion when come out of the cash shop as a lvl 1 pet, the veno in turn has to level the dern thing to match them. anyone want to guess how much fun or how easy that is?b:chuckle, yes I am being sarcastic here.

    myself I would LOVE to see it 30 to 50 dollars. Higher then that, even though I could afford it, i wont purchase it on sheer principle. as someone said, it is just pixels.

    If you get one shotted you probably aren't building your character right. Phoenix has 20% more attack than the next strongest Pet, but it's power lies in a 100% extra damage self buff, allowing it to effectively kill any soft armoured class with a single Ripping bite, though it is still quite weak against heavy armoured classes. But being able to single hit any soft armoured class is enough to warrant a 100 gold price tag.

    I don't even know what the hell you are talking about with the Archer example.

    First of all, no one said anything about Phoenixs 1 hitting Heavy Armour Tanks. Against a mage class, the Ripping Bite is a 1 Hit kill, unless you had no idea where the hell the Mage is, your Phoenix will reach him/her before they finish a chant, perform a Ripping Bite on them which will procceed to kill them. Even if the mage manages to kill you, the Bleed will still take out the mage regardless.

    Venos are pretty much the most powerful PvP class later on, a Hell Veno is unstoppable, with the most ridiculous movement speeds, fox form and 200% dmg return Brambles, Ripping bite pets and generally more HP than other spellcasting classes.

    Sooo...The Phoenix is not overpowered against the heavy duty classes.
    But u say it's overpowered against the Mages.Not saying you're wrong just the Mages are already without the phoenix the worst 1 vs 1 pvp class.Kill or be killed.Mages will still be as effecient in good organised PK and still be as effecient in TW.The question is,is that really a one hit or is it 2 hits?If it's even 2 hit then the Fox also has a chance to die still regardless of Bleed.I always thought mages were the one hit wonder.Get first hit in and u die by their insane damage.

    I'd really love somebody to show a video on it,that clarifies things easier.Proving if it's a one hit or 2-3 hit against different classes shows if it's really that OP.

    On a sidenote:Nice Info Zress.

    I have no experience with a pheonix, so all my research comes from just what I have found, read and verified through other sources.

    Mind you it's possible to teach the damage buff to any pet with a rare pet skill scroll. Basically all the buff is is a cleric buff for a pet that lasts an hour. There's one for physical defense, magical defense, and a reflect one as well. The fact that the phoenix has 20% more attack power at level 90 just makes it more evil. Thank you for the stats Zress, I knew I had seen those before.

    And yes, it is a royal pain to level a phoenix or hercules from level 1 to whatever high level you're at, and you'll need hay or rarer fodder to raise its loyalty, and it'll cost money and or time... but that's why it's so powerful.

    EDIT: As for PvP... most healer type clerics are in the same boat as mages so...
