Outraged About Hailstorm

• Ailyene wrote on 2010-12-04 23:33
  ^ I don't care about this glitch because I'm not a mage, but I think it's fair for players to complain about these types of "fixes" because there are more gamebreaking or annoying glitches that Nexon has NOT fixed, yet they go and fix these ones that people don't actually complain about. For example, from what I've heard, that river glitch still isn't fixed. It negatively affects people who go rafting and you can't just join the glitchers either because you get no stars from killing hobgoblins outside of rafts. Yet they go and fix rafting rewards? It makes no sense.

  A bug is a bug, a non-intended feature and abuse of them is supposedly a bannable offense in any MMO. I too can see where they coming from, same thing happened with raft/ballon rewards. People get comfy abusing something that wasn't intended (before someone takes out the "guide" argument, that guide only applies to KR afaik) and when devs decide to fix there's QQ all over the floor.
  
  What I meant with my post is the Hypocrisy of some players complaining about glitches and bugs, then when they decide to start fixing them they complain, thus, why I don't get mabinogi players.

  
  
  No, this is different. When "we" got G13, Hailstorm had been tested and it was clean of bugs. People invested AP and time into that skill thinking that it would work differently. Now we find out that it's buggy and needs to be fixed in a way that negatively affects players. Oh well that's fine, but give players their AP back, because they might rethink where to invest it because they 'bought' a broken product. Now that it's been repaired you have to wonder if you really need it. But of course, nobody cares and just let them shove it down our throats. So of course I facepalm about your comment. What would you feel if one day DevCat decided to "fix" a bug in WM and say crit was supposed to work like in any other skill? It's the same situation.

  Suddenly we're ignorant because we don't agree with you? If you were to busy to post properly then don't bother until you're ready.

  5/5 Trinity Staffs seem to all end up with -10% Mana Consumption on the Gameabout forums.

  
  
  Really? Mine I thought was +10% spell damage.

  Sorry, I'm an idiot sometimes. You're correct, I've been spending too much time sifting through a forum I can't read, getting stuff mixed up.

  I was navigating the gameabout joint to find at least SOMETHING about G13's new upgrade features, as clearly the people who would normally have spread this information are all but absent.
  
  So yeah, Trinity Staff upgrade boosts all magic damage, but not to the extent of Crown Ice wand on Ice magic alone.

  I can see why they did this. The skill isn't meant to be used all the time, it's meant to be used every now and then.
  
  They fixed a glitch that you have been using, oh well. I wouldn't get too bothered over it honestly. Just go back to doing what you were before you were walking around using Hailstorm all the time.

  Seems to me, Hailstorm users are just as bad as Golem Spammers and WM spammers.
  Don't rely on one skill.
  Ever.

  Has always been the philosophy of the game. Don't always stick to one skill. It's boring. I'm sure there will be situations where hailstorm is advatangeous. Just need to wait and see.

  Third tier magic will probably allow a lot of openings to attack from monsters. I'm guessing it would be used like final hit where you have to use it at the very beginning of fights.

  I believe overupgrade blue adds mana reduction. I couldn't check this out due to lack of gem upgrades though >w<

  This seems about right.

  Yeah there's the perfect skill reset cap that deranks your skill back to N but then again that cost nx, money makes the world go round.
