    They're already removing offensive buffs from clerics so unfortunately we won't be able to make any real support clerics other than heal slaves (which may or may not be useless unless they change them from how they were during the stress test).

    I understand and I agree that the changes for cleric was to prevent the "buff slave" meta. The reason why buff slaves exist is because of the long duration and highly efficient cleric buffs. So, splitting these long duration buffs (15 minutes) to other classes is the right way BUT cleric must still have buffs.

    These are my proposed buff mechanics:
    1. Sustainable buffs are stackable and maintained to be significant enough. These are short duration buffs (10 to 15 seconds) with short cooldown (3 to 10 seconds) that can stack up to 3 times for maximum effect. These buffs is used interactively and must be maintained to give strong effect.
    2. Strong buffs are buffs of significant strength. These are very short duration buffs (3 to 5 seconds) with medium cooldown (15 to 30 seconds). These buffs are used strategically and interactively for well-timed situations.

  2. If you hadn't seen my suggestion about cleric, I would love if you will check it out.

    The problem with buff slave cleric is not the buff itself but how the buff is designed. Cleric buffs are designed to have strong and significant effect with significant duration, the reason why they become buffs slaves. To fix this, there are ways to make makes buffs interactive in plays.

    But before that, in my suggestion, I divided cleric into 3 main type: Heal-Specialist, Enhancer, and Battle Cleric. They can also have sub-types like mix of these qualities: Healer, Buffer, Summoner, Defensive, Offensive.

    Let's discuss about the Enhancer type which is my proposal to fix cleric buffs. Enhancer clerics have the ability to cast short duration stackable buffs. This means that clerics must continue using abilities to maintain significant effect and focus on it. For example, casting between AP buff and DEF buff to maintain these buffs for your party.

    You can check my full suggestion in the Suggestions forum.

  3. Crowd controls should be specialty of Mages and Knights. Clerics should be heals and buffs.

    ROSE is a very old game, but I feel like it can adopt to modern class systems (usually found in MOBAs).

    Soldiers are fighters. They deal good amount of damage but can sustain themselves defensively.

    Knights are tanks. They initiate team fights, absorbs damage especially strong skills, and protects members from utility abilities. One form of this utility is crowd control as tank's way of peeling of attackers from DPS classes.

    Mages are casters. They either deal burst damage or AoE damage and mastered in crowd control to protect themselves as they lack mobility.

    Clerics are supports/enhancers/healers. They specialized healing and protecting through defensive buffs and can enhance ally's damage through offensive buffs.

    Raiders are assassins. The thing with assassins is that they can focus to kill a target and move out of battle easily. In modern class systems, assassins deal burst single target damage while raiders deal continuous basic attack damage. Although there are still notable assassins (Master Yi, Zilong, etc) that relies on basic attack, so raiders are still good as they are.

    Scouts and Bourgeois can fall into the marksman class. They are ranged damage dealers with strong basic attack and ability damage.

    Scouts can be assassin-type marksman, focuses on fast attacks and can move out of battle with their mobility. Scout can be the best role for kiting, or a kiting DPS/marksman.

    On the other hand, since Bourgeois lacks mobility, they can be considered as glass cannon DPS. Lacks mobility and a little bit medium speed attacker with strong critical damage. Might not be able to kite well but can kill faster than Scouts. Bourgeois can be divided into fighter-type marksman (canon) with strong critical damage and defensive capabilities and sustain, and pure DPS marksman (gun) with faster attacks and frequent critical hits.

    Artisan can be a hybrid role, a support and DPS. Support in a sense that they provide strong weapons for allies. Battle Artisans and Battle Clerics can be similar roles.

    I like this idea. My one hope if that if we need to do a quest to get the 2nd character build slot, then make the quest doable even if you have a non combat build like a craft only Artisan.

    I'm kinda off-topic but I would prefer it if crafter Artisan should still have strong combat ability. Like for example, Weapon Craft passive should have a combat-side effects like bonus attributes or attack effects. Then Weapon Craft passive is the prerequisite for weapon crafting actives.

  5. I mean, let me rephrase my second idea:

    1. If you don't have any weapon equipped and you try to equip any ammo (gun, bullet, cannon), it will be marked as equipped (with E and weapon icon on the upper right) while it is in your inventory. For example, if you equip a bullet, it will be marked as equipped with E and gun icon.
    2. If you a weapon type, the marked ammo will be equipped into the ammo slot along with it. For example, if you equip a gun, it will also equip the bullet with E and gun icon.

    I do not entirely agree with the merging of those 3 slots. I can imagine that while walking around showing off your costumes/uniques (something I don't do as I have nothing to show off with 😅), it is nice to switch weapons and be able to immediately use it without also having to change the ammo.

    In addition, it is also nice to carry other ammo without having it take up a slot in your already quite limited inventory space, e.g. when you are delivering higher quality arrows to a new player/char (argument only applies if inventory space would not be revisited).

    With regard to the set up of the slots, I think the current is quite logic. I am a fan of other optional set ups but would stick with a very logical one as default, meaning that e.g. the hat/face is somewhere above, the body in the middle, shoes below, etc.

    Or let's just ditch ammo slot and integrate ammos to weapons. I mean, if you are wearing a gun and you equipped an ammo, it will be placed into the gun's slot. And if you remove the gun, the ammo is still in the gun.

    ORRRRRR, if you wear a gun and equip a bullet, the bullet will go into the ammo slot. But if you unequip the gun, it will be removed from there. Then if you equip a bow and equip an arrow, the arrow will go into the ammo slot. But if you unequip the bow, it will be removed from the slot. THEN if you equip any other gun, the same ammo will be re-equipped automatically. like, the system will remember that if ANY GUN is equipped, this BULLET will automatically be equipped (equipped ammo will have a mark that if the right weapon is equipped, the ammo will be equipped with it).

    Eh. I hope I made myself clear lol

  7. The purpose of this suggestion is to introduce diversification for the Cleric class, such as Heal-specialist (knows specialized healing skills) and Buff-specialist (knows specialized buff skills). These new skills also allow Clerics to play an interactive and strategic role in teamplays.

    Blessed buffs, are buffs with long duration same as traditional Cleric buffs.
    - Charm buffs, are traditional Cleric buffs redesigned with longer cooldown and stackable efficiency (up to 150%).
    - Healing skills with buff, are regenerating skills with minor buffs.
