  1. To be honest, the only aspect of the Evo loot style I like is being able to use my character to farm anywhere I want, instead of needing to waste half my life making 32.7 different characters at different levels with no EXP scrolls to target farm for a piece of jelly bean shi-

    I wouldn't care if they remodeled the drops to be mob specific, but if you can't farm on a max level character, and they remove valor material supplies, there's really no point to the game for anyone at max level. No farming to do, no gearing, nothing. And if that becomes the end-game, well that's an obvious conclusion.

    Do you by any chance know what the Valor shop skill Anti Magic Shell does?

    I believe it is the only PvP skill in the valor shop, and it does not say anything other than 5 dispell buffs.

    That's all it does, however it's not PvP exclusive, it can be used on monsters. Very useful for fighting bosses like Mummy/Mammy in Halls of Oblivion Dungeon. They will prefer to be buffed, so dispelling them causes them to waste time rebuffing themselves.

    How is it a bait? You're clearly biased, and not even level cap, and have no experience in what youre talking about

     

    starting to see why you have the reputation you have.


    I have plenty of experience at end game with Mage.  I was the first one to start pushing for solo clears on Mage for dungeons. I know precisely how hard it is. The only person here who isn't proving themselves in-game and with evidence, is you.

    Edit: Just not worth it. Going to black list you cause you're obviously a sock puppet account from someone before with issues and trying to get a reaction out of me. Not worth it, never will be.

    .. are you ok? who hurt you? I don't play a raider...

    Try to bait me all you want, it's players in your shoes seething cause they can't figure out how to do enough damage to pop a little bubble, or use CC to prevent them from reapplying it a few times. Aint my problem until they touch it in PvM, then I got words for people who can't play a 20 year old game and simulate bubble-pop to save their egos. You wonna sound edgey and memelord go ahead. It won't get you anywhere in terms of actually represented a side of the discussion.

  5. Nobody doubts Rednims intentions. We know they want to make a good game, and gaming experience. We're telling them how to do that. Heads up, in advance on Discord, Forums, In-game and possibly twitter if it's long enough. A simple Discord notify + in-game message for quick restarts. EZ PZ done.

  6. "The luna grind solo is the worst thing you could possibly experience in this game."
    As someone who did exactly that, no party, solo quested from 1 to 196, yes, Luna is the worst part.

    As for the OP, I wouldn't mind seeing the Episode quest reformatted to be a viable leveling option. The quest can take time to fully complete, and has lots of running around.

  7. As someone with a poorly ran stream, a heads-up outside of game would be nice so I don't plan to do things during a planned down-time that no one was told about. So I have to agree, betters heads up would be nice. Else my 2 viewers aren't going to keep giving me pity bits.

  8. Here's what I'd suggest.
    [Game Arena] Disengage
    Movement speed +750
    Applies Mute to self 5 seconds.
    30 second cooldown
    MP cost 20% Max MP

    Designed specifically for fleeing, and not chasing [since you're silenced and can't use your skills].
    Does allow auto-attacking to chase, sort of [movement is auto's worse enemy]
    Reasonable cooldown.
    MP cost prevents Mages from using it regularly since they're funneling MP into barriers [easier for low max MP static classes to blue pot and flee, blue pots won't give enough to mages]

    Only usable in Game Arena [yes dungeons too]

    I will say, Katar raiders will love this spell, which I don't like, since they're going to be about 90% of the pvp specs played at top-end unless Rednim fixed them.

    It's not bones that are going to be the downfall of this, it is the fact that blank enchantment scrolls exist. Being able to take stats of tier 7 equipment, which can roll best in slot appraisals onto end game gear is broken.

    The fact that you can exchange honor to valor points at a 2:1 ratio and it takes a hour to farm 500 honor is a joke. You can have your end game sets, get a few scrolls and now you have your final gear done in a matter of a day or two. Then when it comes to refining, the end game gear is easier to refine than uniques. At least make the dungeon gear/240 honor/valor gear need scarabs to be able to refine it.

    While I say this respectfully, I've never heard so many bad takes in such a pace as this. That has to be a new world record.

  10. Is your shield jab maxed out? If I recall correctly, it's not a 100% until max rank.

    IF, you tested it, they had no other buffs, and it's 100% dispel rate: and the result is it's not working? Then Rednim needs to fix it. I am not beneath making sure that the counters exist as they did and were intended to do. I DO NOT however want it nerfed to below what it was on NA cause I've seen maximum builds and efficiencies, and Mana Barrier s not the end-all be-all people want to think it is right now.

    What skill can dispel the mana shield? I have tested Shield Jab with Knight (removes a buff) against a Mage and it dispelled all but the Mana Shield.
    The general MP drain skill from PvP vendor also doesn’t drain enough mana to make it viable to use with how fast MP can regenerate. 
    It should be on a 45 second cool down just like the Knight Reflect and Guard skills since it plays a similar role of preventing incoming damage.

    Shield Jab works, it prioritizes damage and defensive buffs over shields.
    Fierce Cudgeling also works.
    Anti-magic shell also works.

    And like I said, you can also Stun them, Silence them, sleep them ,focus them, ignore them.
    I'm not going to give literally every solution to it but I can say Clerics, Knights, and Bow Scouts are very good at punishing mages. Figure it out.

    I have not played mage this on this iteration of Rose online, but I have a hard time believing you're sacrificing not getting a ton of power skills to get this ability, It costs 5 skill points to max out It's hard for me to believe you would be significantly stronger if you hadn't spent those 5 skill points. (And that's assuming your maxing it out) I am not saying at all that mages are supposed to be a "free kill" or easy class to kill, even without mana shield, they are absolutely not easy. I played Rose NA for a long time, I remember them performing very well and still being extremely overpowered infact without mana shield. With that being said, I do not have the mentality mages are weak and supposed to be an easy class to kill by any means. Mages were designed to be squishy, and extremely strong like i said, each class has their strengths and weaknesses, one class should not have everything. And they could definitely balance this skill in PVM without affecting pvp, like i said i am unsure of how this skill performs in PVM, My perspective is only toward PVP.  And I am not saying they should remove it, just balance the skill it is ridiculously over powered and mages can literally out tank knights with it, and keep re-applying it every time it breaks.. And no, it does not add much strategy to the class, and require you to use your brain very much as you mentioned, You simply have to press the button every take it, breaks, and make sure you have enough mana and you're invincible. Infact I think it takes away a lot from the class and makes them way easier than intended, and makes you use your brain even less.

    Wrong. It takes approximately 70 SP for a max-potency shield. 10 SP, 5 for mana barrier, 5 for reinforced mana barrier. 10 SP from common max mana passive. 20 SP for max mana and consumption in offense tree. 30 sp in Mage tree for 2 max mp passives and 1 consumption passive.

    The fact you think they're getting it for 5 SP, immediately shows you don't understand what is being invested to get max potency barriers. I don't even have to read beyond that to know what type of player I am dealing with. You had a bad experience, and are going to make up as many mental scenarios as you can to justify you being upset when the answer is simply you don't know enough YET to understand how to beat a Mage. And yet you still think it's justified that they're nerfed, instead of you figuring it out.The answer is to keep playing, and figure out how your kit can be used to counter a Mage. Everyone can, just figure it out before requesting something you don't like or understand be nerfed to make your life easier.

    You mean the “problem” of mages being squishy? That is just the play style/ consequences of being a mage, they are meant to be glass cannons. Not tank cannons. Every class has their weaknesses and strengths, that is what makes the class unique and balanced.

    You don't GET a strong shield while keeping both good damage and good utility, you simply do NOT have enough SP for it.
    The problem I was referring to? Is Mages can be killed 100% hp to 0% hp in a single critical skill hit. That aint squishy, that's gimped and dead. It's also written in the history of ROSE as fact, it happened. It's the EXACT reason mana shield was made. You have to use it when you're about to be under pressure, you have to actively use your brain in order to maintain it, and get a little bit of damage out, without going OOM. Mages aren't tank cannons anymore than this suggestion is from a place of rational and experience.

    If it's so easy to survive on a mage with Mana shield as a crutch, why don't you go do it. For the record, I'm being this aggressively defensive about it because Manashield is the only way a Mage can participate in dungeons due to massive AoE's and DoT's that would destroy a mage without it. The last thing I'll be quiet about, is a nerf request for pvp that ruins a class for pvm. I won't be quiet about it. Learn to use a stun or mute to beat a mage, or focus it down. You'd do the same for a Raider. Stop treating Mage [and for that matter artisan/bourg] as if they're supposed to be your free kills. Toxic mentality.

  14. You need to actually use crowd control and utility in pvp.
    You can stun them during the cast, silence them, dispel it ,sleep them, or focus them. You think a Mage's Barrier is bad, Try focusing down a Cleric fully tanked out and spamming self heals. Or 1v1 a Katar in full dodge.

    Games not even out and people are already expecting to left click someone and win.

    mmm. thank you for showing that even ROSE Forums have toxic players.  We can hide the menu. we can hide the map, we can hide the alt bars. if i am to stream sometimes i don't want other people cussing or on the stream.

    Ok well, it was obviously a joke, if you can't handle that and think it's toxic, you are going to be shocked when you stream this game.
    And I agree, however, that won't stop people's speech bubbles from displaying on your screen. A temporary fix is to simply have an overlay over the chat, like I and many others do. If that doesn't suit you, then sadly your best option is to drag it off screen. As was mentioned, you can also reduce it's size so the overlay isn't as big.

    ---Redundant Post. Please remove I made this by mistake and I don't know how to remove my own post.---

    Sorry. I think I expressed myself improperly. What I meant to say it that. The only thing you spoke about was cosmetics and the benefit to the development team with the additional funding. I "disagree" in the fact that only cosmetics was mentioned when reasonably priced and just additional storage/inventory expansions be added as well. Sorry for the miscommunication I did not mean to imply that you tried to mislead, nor did i maliciously try to misrepresent you're post. ❤️
