new skill description for Demon forms read.


+ 40 % hp
+ 80 % moving speed
+ critical resistance bonus.

My question is, is this just a text error where the developers have semi merged the skill description with that of sage, but didn't merge the moving speed bonus part.

Or did they intend to increase demon form HP bonus form 30 - 40 % but forgot to edit the skill


Sage version gives

No damage penalty ( originally demon version)
+ 90 % moving speed
+ 40% hp
+ extra chi every time the skill is used.

Current demon version gives

+ 30 % hp
No damage penalty
+ 80 % moving speed
+ critical resistance.

    It's a text error; it will be changed to 30% in the next patch.

    <.< so it was an text error, darn it.

    Why do pwi hate demon barbs so much?
    This update made the sage barbs break the balance even more, for example sage Sunder HP pool is bump up to 8500, while demon gets only 4k.. Another is the sage beastal onslaught grants stomp of the king a critical hit each time its use base on the skill book. While demon Beastal onslaught gets a crt boast of 5% and stomp still doesn't miss.

    Sage panda form grants 20 chi and no reduction in physical attack and have more speed and 10% more HP.

    Why not just give all the demon barbs the 10% more HP for panda form, I pretty sure a lot of demon barbs would agree that would be fair. b:surrender

    I'd say the buff to sage barbs is ok, because demon barbs had the cultivation advantage imo, with the latest changes its a lot more even.

    Its ok Jabra, would of been nice if we got it but demons still Rock.

    Take the new passive damage buff for skill damage.

    Sage will get only a 16% boost in skill damage ( 8 levels of 2% )

    Where as Demon barbs will get a base 32% increased damage from Sundergeddon
    with a 40 % chance to get an addtional 64 % skill damage ( zerk).

    Im not saying Sage barbs cant get that 64% extra skill damage, they can, just not every sunder and arma like a Demon barb will be able to get.

    well yeah demon barbs still rock, just have to wait until the next patch to see if other classes get even more skills to learn.

    Still waiting for that 40+ defence lvl buff for a demon barbs last 2 updates or was it one.

    Sage barbs can still get lucky crits on Armageddon, so this is fine.
