    Here is your base damage:
    3569-6711

    A level 79 sawfly has 2004 hp and 5188 mdef and pdef, which should come to about 62% reduction.

    So your damage range on the sawfly should be (if we assume no pvp reduction)
    1356.22 - 2550.18
    That means on average you should hit it for about 1953.2.

    Since Sawfly has 2004 hp, you should not be one-hitting them very often. You would have to do damage on the high end of your damage curve in order to one-hit a sawfly.

    Now, if we were to take into account an additional 75% reduction the numbers would look like this:
    339.055 - 637.545 for an average hit of 488.3

    Too bad you are on a different server, or we could test this really quickly :)
    Too often we loose sight of life's simple pleasures. Remember, when someone annoys you, it takes 42 muscles in your face to frown, BUT, it only takes 4 muscles to extend your arm and slap that mother#$@%#^! upside the head.

    THIS is the damage i do on a sawfly. Lucky crits can make it easier tho.

    venos are not op. theyre not "easy" either. i've met quite a few venos with nix and herc who completely suck at pvp and/or pve.

    It isn't all about how much you have, it's about knowing the limitations of your character, and knowing what you are doing. The gear makes it easier, and can make some nearly impossible tasks easier, but it doesn't mean the same cannot be accomplished with normal gear.

    Sinew also thinks this game is too hard to level at level 21. So we need to take what he says with a bucket of salt.

    LOL tweaked out, if you call have level 30 rank1 armor and rest npc armor tweak that noone else can get. lol My axes I got for her was from a guildy and funded by my BM alone. 900k for
    Image1-2.jpg
    yes I got one hell of a deal, but thats what faction members are for. But My BM earned that 900k on her own for it. And Bronze charms are cheap. You just have to know what the hell your doing and make the right choices. Ie not wasting on stupid stuff.

    On that fact she still is using said level 30 rank 1 gears and NPC gear at level 41.

    Stop whining and start working for it. Look at the screeny Miatemaro posted and see its a lv35. No one in their right mind would use mirage stones to refine anything below the lvl of 45-50. Hell you use pots dropped off mobs or buy them at NPCS. Unless you are those pple that leave money and drops lying on the floor, you wiil have enough money till at least 50. The axe she has? Thats a freakin rarity, if not a waste of mirage and shards on a lv30 weapon.
    YOUR WHINING BEFORE YOU REACHED THE LV TO EVEN REALIZE THAT FACT.
    Go play hello kitty online or something, your the laziest poster I have yet to come accross on this forum.

    i love it when he demon sparks xD
    Sins are Scissors. Psychics are Rocks.
    Archers, Venos, Barbs, Wizards, BMs, Mystics, Seekers are Paper.
    ...and Clerics are Mushrooms.
    Paper beats Rock. Scissors beats Paper. Scissors also happens to beat Rock...until Rock gets 50k+ soulforce at which point Rock becomes an unstoppable killing machine that beats Paper... and would beat Scissors but it can't find Scissors, because Scissors are invisible.
    So Scissors beat Paper and avoids Rock, and that is called BALANCE. -cheze

    Veno is Over Powered...

    Heres why:
    - More relative versatility in Armors and potential functions of the armors.
    - They have the option to pay 200+ bucks in cashshop and get ultimate PVP or PVE weapons...(they still gotta lvl em and feed them, but they have that option)
    - Phoenix (in PVE servers it turns a blue named veno into a white named and callous individual (sometimes), in TW the guild with the highest lvl and number of Nix veno's usually has a strong attacking advantage, players fear them. Bleed kills quickly. Look at Wii's kills, look at momento and Antigones Kills... what class are they?)
    - Air advantage (they can sit on a pet and kill things from the air, if the mob has not ranged attack, its helpless)
    - Pet healing (dont need a cleric nemore)
    - Bosses and leveling is easier (started a veno char after trying out all except barb, and it was easy as pie as you dont need to search for too much help with a good tanking pet)
    - Independent character (cept for receiving buffs from a cleric, they can do almost all task and quest independently)

    These are just opinions and not solid facts, but I find most of them to be true.
    PWI is kinda fun

    Actually I hear it really becomes bird hunting season in TW b:chuckle

    Also imagine what it will be like when the water or ice whatever they call it comes out too. Then we can have twice as many threads about how broken the fire and ice birds are. Submit a ticket let your complaint be known and leave it at that.

    no you wont.
    1 the bleedbug wont be in them birds
    2 if theyll be as much effective, all whos got the sufficient inntellegence to log into a forum will roll a veno or call it the day and go play some other mmo game.

    edit : on 2nd thought it dun matter if the firebird will rip me apart or the ice.
