Force of Will always gave 15 Chi, now it is 10 Chi.
What's the reason?

Thanks for making the Wizard class even worse.
It was already hard to build chi while kiting from a stun-machine. (20 Chi per Shrink >.>)

    No change to aps, no bugs fixed, no rubberbanding sorted, TT3 still the same...

    ....But they decided the balance of the game was in peril unless they nerfed the chi gain on a random wiz skill. Right.

    WTF really?...

    Then, since you are nerfing the chi gained by some skills, how about you nerf sin's skills. Those are the ones that need the most nerfing.

    and this is why i really don't care if they post any patch notes or not. i can always write my own, and have them be as accurate.

    hell, i can wait two or three days and write far MORE accurate patch notes.

    Nope. It's far more likely they'll increase the chi gain instead. Like when BM's used to gain 4 chi per hit, and they gave it a boost just when aps was getting to be more common.

    Less people run wizzies, more people roll melee aps and charge tons of zen for all that -int.

    Ok, I just checked with my barb this, and that skill stills works like it should. Demon Bestial Rages gives me 8 chi each time I get hit (on my barb ofc).

    b:shocked It's just another ploy to get us all to reroll as BM's, Sins, or Seeker, and buy R9.
    101 Sage Sin*/Archer
    100 Demon BM*/Barb
    96 Demon Cleric/Sage Seeker
    95 Demon Wiz/
    94 Sage Veno
    85 Psy/80 Mystic
    And a handful of other alts, all 79 and under.

    I havent levelled my wizzy to 79 yet so I havent used the skill but.... Is it possible to oneshot someone with Undine? Or is the damage just a number and the damage wont ever change? (Aside downwards/upwards to defences and debuffs).

    Just wondering :P

    I know it's hard to be used to having something (15 chi FoW) and lose it, but aren't some people over exaggerating a little too much? If they nerfed chi gain on say, Pyro or something, ya I'd pissed, but this is a spell that you cast at most once every 30s.

    Wizards have always had the best chi gain compared to clerics and venos by far (never had a high lvl psy), and they still do with this FoW nerf. It's not a change that we see as necessary, but to say **** like this, THIS, is going to get wizards to reroll, is bull ****. R8 wizards with Jone's Blessing GG. **** BMs.

    Psychics channel and cast faster for the damage they do; chi gain so far on my psy has not been much of an issue. Once I hit 89 and can start using level 11 Aqua Impact and Spirit Blast, chi will become even less of an issue (Sage Spirit Blast has a chance to give 30 chi).

    On my wizard (I have a 100 wiz on Archosaur) chi has always been a problem. White Tea / God Tea helps but it's horribly expensive. Cloud Eruption on the genie helps too, but it's still nothing compared to a 5aps build who can perma-spark. I have the rank 8 magic sword, and at +10 it's actually pretty good. However, it's still no match for the sheer DD power of a 5aps BM/barb/sin.

    I hate how the devs keep nerfing wizards too, though, so I have to agree with the OP. Has anyone else noticed that ALL damage now carries the ability to interrupt channeling? Starting a few months ago, around the time they took away TW pay, I noticed spell interruptions a lot more frequently on my wizard. b:angry That's the main reason I rolled a psychic on this server - their channeling time is so quick that it's very rare to get interrupted.

    Somebody in PWI development hates wizards and is absolutely in love with assassins. b:chuckle

    You'll deal a tiny tiny bit of damage to your target, I'm not even sure why it's there.

    And as to chi gain, wizards might gain more chi per spell but we hit ****ing slower usually.

    Lol at wizards gain chi faster than venos, you ever seen Sage venos spam lending hand on themselves? XD

    What do you mean wizards hit slower usually?

    Look at the skills:

    Pyro: 1.5s chan/0.8s cast - 15 chi
    Glacial Snare: 2.5s chan/1.8s cast - 20 chi
    Sandstorm: 2.5s chan/1.5s cast - 15 chi
    Stone Rain: 1.6s chan/1.4s cast - 15 chi
    Gush: 1s chan/1s cast - 10 chi

    Compare that with clerics:

    Plume Shot: 1.5s chan/1s cast - 5 chi
    Wield Thunder: 2.5s chan/1.2s cast - 15 chi
    Razor Feathers: 2.5s chan/1.5s cast - 10 chi
    Cyclone: 1s chan/1s cast - 10 chi

    Wizard nukes don't cast much longer compared to clerics', but generally give more chi per cast.

    The only thing in clerics tree that gives 20 chi is the 3.5s chan/1.5s cast AOE heal.

    you cant compare a support class to a dmg classb:surrender

    with so many rank8 around that can eventually 1 hit you with crit ..or not... 5 chi less i would say isn't a issue...

    still nerf chi on a skill after so long is just tacky

    This is not a true entertainment company, this is just a bullsh1t & trolling company. Why you still dont understand this?

    Create a facebook group to stay in contact with friends and stop playing this **** like i did.
    Or at least dont give them the money they dont deserve and stop caring about the game: they dont care anymore, so there's no reason why we still should.

    Did you see them answering to this thread and thousand of any other threads?
    I wonder if they actually know the meaning of "CUSTOMER SERVICE" words


    All they do is waiting for ppl like me to talk enough hard to "close the thread" LOL like if this would be a true solution

    so childish...
