Barbies :
***************************************************************************

Ancestral Rage: cooldown changed from 5 minutes to 1 minute.

^ Don't mistake this with Cornered Beast from Morai skill, its the actual lvl 100 barb skill!

*THE CD IS REDUCED ON THE "ANCESTRAL RAGE", NOT THE CORNED BEAST*

技能名称 真狂 吞噬 修改内容 附加生命最大值20%的仇恨。

^ SKILL Devour ( sage & demon ): The "Threat" effect is increase by 20% of max hp on the barb

Seekers:
***************************************************************************

Edged Blur*:Cast time is decreased from 1.5 seconds to 1.3 seconds.
(From what I can tell, it can also proc Parchedblade?)

^ CORRECTION: THIS IS FOR THE SKILL "BATTOUSAI" NOT EDGED BLUR


Something?: Gives twice the crit rate to deal 1.5x damage.
(I have no bloody clue as to what this one is.)
Edit*: I've had a closer look at this one; it's related to a sage/demon skill.

^ THIS IS FOR THE SKILL "EDGED BLUR" sage n demon : gives 2x more chance to deal 1.5x more of dmg

i didn't look through others as closely cause i only have barb and seeker lol

meh....

Alright; with the plethora of information given to me by Asterelle and everyone else, I've now got a better understanding of what changes have happened to Seeker skills.
I present to you, the newly improved list of changes for Seekers.

Seekers
=================================================

Rock Splitting Cleave:
Normal versions can now be cast from ranged.
Demon and Sage versions have had their cast range increased to 20m.
Sage now deals an additional 500 damage to replace it's effect.

Staggering Strike:
Demon and Sage versions have had their cast range increased to 20m.

Arme Nier:
Cast range is increased to 28m

Quid Pro Quo:
Cast range is increased to 28m
Demon and Sage versions have had their cooldowns reduced to 30 seconds.

Blade Affinity:
Demon and Sage versions have had their cooldowns reduced to 30 seconds.
Demon version now lasts 2 seconds longer to replace it's effect.

Sacrificial Slash:
Cooldown is reduced to 30 seconds. It will also mention that the buff/debuff are independent from each other.
(Still a few difficulties with this one; it mentions the NSW debuff, but, still unsure if they will stack or just overwrite each other as per normal)

Edit:Credit to Catal for informing us that "Sacrificial Strike" and "God of Frenzy" now trigger for the following metal skills.

Battousai:
Can now trigger "Sacrificial Strike" and "God of Frenzy".
All versions have had their cast times reduced to 1.3 seconds.

Heartseeker:
Can now trigger "Sacrificial Strike" and "God of Frenzy".
Demon and Sage have had their immobilize rate increased to 100%.
Sage now deals an additional 1600 damage, replacing it's effect.
Demon now immobilizes for an additional 2 seconds, replacing it's effect.

Ion Spike:
Can now trigger "Sacrificial Strike" and "God of Frenzy".
Demon and Sage have had their weapon damage increased to 200%, additional damage is increased to 5100, Metal resistance is now reduced by 50%, and, duration is increased to 15 seconds.
Sage now deals an additional 1600 damage, replacing it's effect.
Demon now increases the duration by a further 10 seconds, replacing it's effect. (25 seconds)

Edged Blur:
All versions can not crit, however, have a chance equal to 2x your critical rate to deal 1.5x damage.

Rewinding Gesture:
Cooldown reduced to 3 minutes. Now costs 20 chi.

Archangels of Justice:
Now costs 1 spark.

Angel Skill-Meteor Storm:
Stun rate is no longer reliant on soulforce. Stun rate is now 90%.

Blood-thirsty Blitz:
Text is changed to generate Massive Threat

==================================================
Alright, so, after looking through the game files provided by Asterelle; I could find no mention of Battousai/Heartseeker/Ion Spike activating any other stances, so, it was probably bad info from the unofficial thread. Whether any further changes have been made for seekers is beyond my patience to trawl through game files for something remotely relevant.

Bumped for great justice
Edit*Updated Battousai

bump.

How do you know this?

Only other server to compare to is HT for population. And our server is dominated with Arcanes and Bm's.

Numbers please, not guesses.

I know for a fact without playing on your server that you have in excess of 70 R9 Archers..

HT only has about 40 or 50... compared to our like 80 BMs and 70ish Arcanes.

Edit: Ninja'd

_Bloody_Fox_ - Sanctuary wrote: »

Do you know for a fact how many are on the other servers?




Same question to you as well.

Unless you guys give me legit population statistics you can only guess.

Well the PvP servers are pretty much dead so their active playerbase won't have more R9 archers. That is a fact.

That leaves

RT which is flooded with sins.

HT which is mostly BM and Arcanes.

Arch has a lower end population as well

DW is the only one I'm not sure about but I'll wager 500 mil that they have less R9 Archers then Sanc.

K I'm done derailing this topic further. Continue with the original thread which involves skill re-balancing. If you want to continue this take it up with me in PMs.

I wanted stats. But you cannot present them. Figured as much. b:bye

lol @ people who think they know more than they do. b:chuckleb:victoryb:shutup

lol @ people who expect the impossible and can't accept the logical.

I told you to take it to pms if you wanted to continue it.

If you're so keen on trying to say its false go provide stats saying otherwise.

_Bloody_Fox_ - Sanctuary wrote: »

QQQ just challenging you because you love to argue so much b:laugh


btw having stats is logical and assuming is illogical.

Whoooaaaaa mind blower!

I get the feeling that someone is upset that two archers from two different servers agree on the same thing. One provided concrete stats of the number of their archers and the other is based off of speculation but admitting it is less then the other. That being said those two servers have a larger population then any other server.

Furthering that in a pure % ratio of player having R9 per total player in addition to that player being an archer.

Sanctuary wins out.

You can compare the rankings pages easily enough. Before looking I'm just going to bet Sanctuary will have the most.

Number of archers in first 3 pages of PVP rankings

Sanc - 32
DW   - 30
HT   - 27
RT   - 26
HL   - 20
LC   - 17

And it does! I admit I'm a bit surprised the other servers were even that close. I'd be willing to bet if you looked at only R9+12 bows Sanctuary would be far more than the others. After looking at youtube videos or walking through arch you can tell the servers have pretty different class demographics.

I am not upset about frost glitchers kissing each others *****.

In fact. I never even said it was false LOL. Just wanted stats to validate that sanctuary has the biggest population. But alas no one can show me PROOF.

And the rankings do not mean ****. They are completely buggy and unreliable.

You do know that Jens proven time and time again she got to 105 without goons. Get over yourself child.

You are trying to go back on what you originally said sad two faced troll who's upset that they are wrong. Please go into a corner and cut yourself some more.

Keep talking out your *** because you're in denial that someone can get to 105 legitamently.

Good you sad little emo. Make sure you cut vertical not horizontal. We wouldn't want the EMT to be able to fix the vain and save you.

.. Don't speak for me. You're instigating him

Let him think I goon I don't care. I know I didn't and others do too. If someone doesn't fine let them.


And that's a bit uncalled for. People die all the time because of internet bullies like you.

Kinda sad there is nothing on fleshream for barbs b:sad At least there is something on devour.

About time they think of a major skill review. I wonder if dot's will be used again after b:laugh

Obviously, I know because I maintain a catalog of Sanctuary's R9 archers
That's a normal thing to do right?

This is just creepy b:shocked b:sweat
