I guess I just don't think it's so drastic a change. I suspect most people won't even notice the difference.
Coming from a game that thrived off of the no-limit rule, is now going to add the option of severely limiting yourself.
Pretty drastic to me.

It's as spammable as any other range skill seeing as how they all have load times and aiming times. The MP cost per cast is only 15 which means you can't just spam mass AoE damage without drawing aggro from 100 yards away -all- the time...unless you have one or two potions. Someone who actually used it stated that it disturbs aggro even if the monster had already targeted you. I don't know of any videos where the target survives and I'm not feeling too pressured to look since the truth will come out soon enough.
But they're not changing anything that was pre g13 as far as adventurers go. They're just adding, not taking anything away.
Hey, guess what? I play as a giant and I'm used to being left out of a lot of stuff. Don't start whining just because you might not be able to wear every outfit (oh wait, you do have the option of changing your class to wear that outfit :D). Stop acting like you're somehow being wronged for having to be a class to use a skill. That's just dumb and acting immature from having been spoiled so long~
I'd hate to have any skills not available (that could be helpful in future generations blah blah blah) just because of a stupid class thing. Also, there is literally no class that I'd feel comfortable in (with the skills screwover). Staying as an adventurer is really no excuse.
And spammable as any other ranged skill? Sorry but, are you kidding? x_x Yeah they all have load and aim times, rofl? It's like saying "Smash and windmill both have load times, so they're both the same."
"Only" 15. It's hardly only. Magnum would actually be fit for wayy more situations. Also, it takes 230 AP to get to the 2 second load time, and anything below rA is 3 seconds. 3 seconds of load time + actual aiming time + possible aggro (even if the shot itself doesn't draw aggro, there's no guarantee that monsters won't aggro just because you're standing there) which would mean a -% from aiming if they're walking or running.... imo, not a spammable skill at all. If someone were to get aggro'd using this skill they'd be dead trying to hit the monster with it.
Also, for someone like me who doesn't rb weekly and is also a lazy bastard, 490 AP is a ridiculous amount to try and get, especially just to rank one skill to 1.
Not changing anything, sure, but only if you wanted to stay in pre-G13 content forever.
Yes they're adding, but being an adventurer would very likely take away from future content.
Sure. They're not taking anything away except advantages in every generation past 13.
I really don't care about giants not having the ability to wear some clothing, I just want to not be restricted so that I have to choose a class to use a certain skill. ;D
And does it matter if you think I'm spoiled? =P I don't think that changes anything at all. The class system is the thing we're targeting not me.

If the mob is running towards you wouldn't that make the load time faster since its closer? o-o
Also, I'd like you to direct your AP complaints in the direction of all the intermediate magic users so that they can laugh at you~
Also, adventurers can use leap attack as well as bard of ballad so don't say they're locked to pre-g13.
Like what Kaz said. Its basically guaranteed that pro G13 updates are going to single out the classes more then the adventurer. And then there are clothes/armor/weapons restricted to classes. Some skills are also class locked.
Not exactly friendly to adventurers, which I plan on staying.
- Aiming % cap. Even at 84% that's still a 1/6 chance of missing.
- Adventurers do not get Lure of Ballad, and Down Attack is only rankable as a Knight.

Life skill that placates surrounding monsters using music. The user can walk while playing and have the monsters follow them. At the end of the song, all monsters influenced will attempt to aggro the user, as per their AI.
I'm targeting all people that are going "baaaaaaaaaaaw" for having something interesting happen to this game for once.
Leap attack and lure of the ballad.
Leap attack: What if you're not a melee user? What if you're an archer?
Lure of the ballad: Sure, I'll be your aggro sponge. Any day.
Sounds like it's only for lulz and deflecting attention from others, and only after a bit of time for the music to take place. Maybe it'd be useful if elves could hide after using it, but I'm not sure about that point.
I don't care about down attack. I'm talking about how adventurers are and will get locked out of using items/clothes/armor/weapons/some skills. To me it is redefining Mabinogi even if it is just an option. But the option now limits you to not being able to try out new content unless you wait 3 weeks (I free RB) and pick a different class. If you end up not liking the class then you either pay to change it or wait another 3 weeks. .__. Then you have to work on ranking skills that you either have never touched or aren't ranked high nuff to be used in dungeon play.
I would also like to know why they decide to do this now since I've ranked up all different sorts of skills.
I think the idea for Lure is for party use. Your party has access to smash, cast int magic, or whatever while you're playing Peter Piper.
Doesn't strike me as the kind of job someone would want.
Bard class is pretty much useless, imo.
I don't see someone going into bard class just to be second seat to others who get to actually hit things.
