  I'm hoping that's all it was was golem.

  So the hero skills are only avaiable to those who use the hero cards to create a new character? (since they work like Memorial Cards)

  Idk about Bard or Alchemy, but I'm still rather fond of this magic video:
  
  [video=youtube;-iJnR_vZLig]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-iJnR_vZLig[/video]
  
  This mage doesn't seem to have these problems with practicality and efficiency you speak of o wo

  
  
  I'm pretty sure those are HM mobs; elite Shadow Warriors have 10k. KR laglessness, KR slow as fuck AI (really, it is stunning how long it takes ANYTHING to aggro in KR videos, considering that the vid is sped up, in about 3 or 4 mins the monsters only aggroed twice without being hit) add up to a not so relevant video.
  
  Personally, KR players making videos are almost useless for judging how good a skillset will be for NA because they have so much going for them server-wise that we can only dream of.

  Abnormal damage? Was this with the dmg stacking and what not?

  
  
  To clarify, seems they fixed the bug where normal dmg enchants (possibly overture too as extension of this) were applying to alchemy as if it were alchemical dmg. In other words, in all those water/flame videos we've seen since hero release the dmg was abnormally inflated.

  Two of my guild mates are RA's and they were so excited about alchemy, the fact that the damage might have/ was inflated will sadden them.

  I don't really understand why DevCat won't afford magic and alchemy the ability to compete with other talents. I can understand some deviation as of right now (due to the investment of additional time/resources for ranged/melee/combined stat talents) but it seems unusual that they wouldn't offer some way for mages and alchemists to catch up.
  
  Essentially, i'm getting pretty tired of seeing the majority of people run around with the exact same character builds. The talent system didn't really help things out either. GM Combat Alchemist gives like +1 Fire Damage and slightly improves the effectiveness of an already unreliable skill, while GM Archer improves the effectiveness of the (imo) best talents in the game (range/puppetry), GM Warrior buffs Melee, Puppetry, and Shooter, and GM Bard gives some pretty fantastic musical buffs.
  
  I was hoping for some diversity and they let me down.

  Well...I can understand the dmg enchants but not battle field. That should work for all types of combat. :-/ Do any of you mind testing this later for both magic and alch if you guys get a chance?

  Max damage enchants now stack with Watercannon and Flameburst charges.

  I agree with this, I hope we see more alchemists and mages after this update. Everyone, and i mean everyone uses fighter and lances ect.
  
  But as of this update people can actually main Alchemy, If you have a good amount of HP, MP and critical.
  Sure, Alchemy may not steamroll over enemies like reforged-ranged, puppetry and high-end melee, but it indeed is a fun skillset that makes you think.
  
  I'll be honest, I had fun using alchemy skills, I'll covert back after this update.
