Class Expansion Concern

I have a thought. With DEX being difficult to balance, while SPR with less of a purpose, I wonder if they want to split the AGI and SPR+DEX.
AGI

  • Dodge Rate
  • Crit Rate
    SPR
  • Hit Rate
  • Magical Resist

They probably need to refine more, but I just don’t feel the game is completed (or too simple).
With the changes to Linker, it makes more sense and balance, I think they need to work it more before they market this for OBT.

I think this can come from itemization as well.
They can have Gems with HP recovery on Hit.
They can have Gems for elemental damage (so you need to put more thought and make use of weapon swap)

Imo the new changes to Linker C1 actually make them underpower. Now there is very little reason to go for linker C1 for solo play.

I thought the Knot CC is still useful. Maybe they can add a debuff to reduce CC Resit on the Joint, and add a 2 second physical stun to Knot (high CON will not be stunned or decrease in duration). Giving a physical stun will be different than magical stun.

So not only i would have to drop STR for accuracy from SPR, i would also need to drop it for AGI if i wanted crits? Worst idea ever.

It is actually normal that higher accuracy allow you to aim for weak points (and thus score critical hits).

Not sure why you need do drop AGI if you are crit base (perhaps you never spec against magic defense?). Besides, I said they need to refine more.
My idea was:
STR + CON + some SPR = hard hit (may miss) + large HP
AGI + SPR + some STR = crit + dodge/reduce magic damage

It will not be worth sacrificing dps circles for it if this is true (hasn’t been confirmed yet) leaving mages without one of the build choices for no reason.

Looks like someone’s family was killed by linker.

It is cause barbs can wipe the whole screen in a few weapon swings, archer can wipe the whole screen by spamming a no-cd skill in 5 seconds, priests can do something similar to barb and only fking mages having laughable slow single target autoattacks should not be allowed to kill 5 mobs together once in 15 seconds.

This is a barb (autoattack/shooting) game, baby, get out! :sunglasses:

Nothing is confirmed I guess, perhaps have to wait for the next testing, but just want to raise the concern of class expansion.

If they add more classes, I doubt they’ll just give us class reset scrolls. Like others said, you’ll just have to make a new character like everyone else that wants to play the new class. That’s the biggest part of ToS imo, making new chars, trying new class combinations, seeing whats fun and whats efficient. Honestly, class reset scrolls in other games is the standard money maker for games that wanna get cash off lazy convenience wanters. I’m even a bit anti-reset stat/skill scrolls, but I mean I guess if you made a mistake with those, then the game shouldn’t be too harsh, but class reset scrolls are poison imo, cause then the rich kids will just keep class changing their one char while everyone else actually has to work to make a new and more efficient class.

Not sure people would want to level up to 400 for adding new classes.
And do you think there will be free character slot? If not, all the items I bought for one account will not carry to another account?

Regardless, I think they may want to put some thought on this. A Rebirth on Job is an option, make the last 2 Ranks as floater is another option (once you reach Rank 8). Something they need to think about.

I wouldn’t like to keep starting over and I may have cash shop costumes etc and they will go to waste. And IMC said that the thing that makes TOS special is feeling a special bond with your char, so we shouldn’t be made to ditch our main.

Linker was clearly murdered.
For 1 circle from support class to kill 5 mobs every 15 seconds with the dps from another class = broken.
For peltasta1/barbarian killing 11 mobs every 20 seconds = not broken.
Clueless players won again.

I play Cleric up to C3 Priest, and a support class has been like that. You are relying on others to kill them with Sacrament & Blessings as compare to a C2 Priest, or Heal & Cure as compare to a C3 Cleric. Not sure who you are calling clueless these days.

Anyone who thinks he has a right to talk about balancing issues and make claims based on their limited knowledge of ~1-2 200 lvl characters or below in closed beta.
