  Apparently the Maple Fox comes with 2 exclusive skills?
  
  Break and Emergency treatment
  
  It can also get all bolts rank 1 and rank 1 combat mastery.

  
  
  Rank 1 bolts...*drools*

  What is messed up?

  
  
  Magic attack turns into an additive multiplied by a coefficient, and has no direct interaction with charges. Or as some people put it, magic damage has no effect on anything but the first charge.

  Wait, WHAT? Wow, I missed that.
  
  That...totally defeats the purpose of trying to make magic good again.

  It should also be stated that this sounds (most likely) like a glitch, it's still in KR test server so don't worry to much, It will probably change. :whistle:

  It's probably to keep the new skills from being overpowered.
  
  Calm down. We don't know what the final patch looks like yet.

  True. isn't it a brand new variable, too?

  I assumed it came with the pet, but I may be wrong, might be event related?... I don't know.

  This is true, I just find it odd how each next charge is naked after the 1st one.

  Not sure what the equation is, so this is probably wrong and I'm missing variables, but it's a mock equation to show what might have happened.
  
  Maybe when typing up the equation they put the variable on the wrong side of the parenthesis. Came out as this:
  [INDENT]Damage=Charges*(Base*MagicDam)*Coefficient[/INDENT]
  Instead of this:
  [INDENT]Damage=Charges*(Base*MagicDam*Coefficient)[/INDENT]
  But yeah, let's just wait a while to see if it sticks. Heck, it could be intentional and fan input might make them change it.

  Unless the skills is spammable and doesn't have cooldown (for Instant cast, Mobile cast, and chain cast)... I don't mind the new formula a bit, just need to tweak on defense and protection because we may will hit even more lower on the mobs who have higher protection/defense and I dislike that.
  
  But if the new spells have cool-down bad enough to be more than 5 or so... then hell no. I don't want to deal with lower damage of Magic. This is BS.
  
  I hope they did change the formula eventually because the formula seem to make our magic weaker, still even with the new skills because the new skills will most likely to have 10+ seconds cooldown. :/

  I know what you're trying to say, but that kinda change wouldn't affect the formula in anyway. But if we base it on the supposed new formula, then you've got a valid point.
