Ok, back to lances.
I've read that lances are indirectly nerfed, thanks to the new formula.
But has it actually been tested out? As in, has someone actually poked mobs with secret penetrating lance and see if the piercing level acts the same way it does now?
Because theoretically, lances should be less effective, but I was wandering if someone actually dedicated their time to figure out if using a lance follows the new formula, or there's more to it.
I'm pretty sure I haven't read posts about someone testing out with lance yet.

Because it's a test server, secret penetrating lances are lol.

It means the world to me and i'm not a mage. Problem?
Your to concerned with not dieing when being hit, instead of avoiding the damage in the first place (lag maybe and you can't help it?).
Wait, this just made me realize: Why are they buffing defense so much that you can tank hits like nothing now? Is new content going to have cheap nearly unavoidable attacks?

Maybe they're going to revamp missions and dungeons to be harder / new difficulties or something.
I wouldn't mind things needing you to be a tad bit tanky at times for party play!~ Gives a reason to have someone 'tanky' and a healer too.

Maybe they care about the foreign players that lag, or maybe incoming nerfs to other systems.

Now that I think about it...I can see this first 'balance' patch leading the way to re-balance a lot of other things in the game as well as fleshing out a few of the talents some more. (still waiting on that bard stuff and it's info)
Though at the same time I can see everyone shitting bricks at every little thing they do because they don't view it as 'balanced' at first and simply nothing more than a nerf that hinders them and only them.

Because this game has so many crutches that need to be obliterated from this game in order to bring back the difficulty that this game had at one point.
That or stop making stupid missions that make absolutely no sense and have no point. Lord missions being one of them, what a complete waste of time come G18

I try my best, but I lag horribly. Ask Llama for example - He has a second loadtimes on instaload skills. I rubberband while doing anything and most of the time just sit there while mobs come to me, I can't load skills in time.

Sorry, typo. Other things too. (not that that was extremely hard to figure out lol)
Lord missions are only there for demonic weapons. You get parts to build them from lord missions.
G18 story reward gacha type box things gives you a chance to just get a demonic weapon already made.
Thus who the fuck is going to do a lord mission as long as they have NX to throw around for the mission repeat item to try again.
