Actually, Now that I think about it, no cast interruption is pretty nice for Cryo too. Easier time channeling your wall, Easier time channeling snow rolling. Not like they had too much trouble doing it before with their freezing.
I will very likely be rolling a Cryo/Alchemist/Sage(?) support shop wizard.
Wait a secā¦you mean I canāt just stack CON, Block, and MATK and be good in pvp anymore? For shame.
magic can be blocked too, letās make a tank scout lol
Does Snow Rolling still break in a couple of seconds randomly upon being hit by mobs? This and Frost Pillar being weirdly randomly difficult to cast (must spam it like hell to cast it) are the last things preventing me from enjoying Cryo.
Truly a shame, now you just stack evasion instead on scout 
I mean, I donāt have any issue with Frost Pillar personally, but the Snow Rolling thing is pretty annoying. Snow Rolling works for me more often than not, mind you. The only times it breaks on me is when Iām trying to roll through extreme enemy density like going straight down a lane in Uphill or trying to vacuum an entire segment of Lanko dungeon by myself.
I would like to see that issue fixed too though. And maybe something done about Ice Shard. Itās kind of unnecessary when Ice Pike exists.
This makes me wonder, whatās going to be the answer to this kind of evasion stacking? Cause I could easily see evasion becoming the new block if itās allowed to exist in this state.
with STR no longer granting hit rate, do we have to rely only on accuracy from skills and armor bonuses?
The only times it breaks on me is when Iām trying to roll through extreme enemy density
And this is when Snow Rolling is most crucial, especially CM. Whatās the point if in such situation it breaks within a few seconds 90%+ of the time?
Their tears are so taste
Broken mechanics have nothing to do with gearing or skill of players. Those mob isnāt hard to kill, just annoying when they swarm you with their multi-hit attack that combine with their poor engine. Making unnecessary lag to client side
I donāt know whatās happening with your snow rolling but I rarely have issues with it breaking in CM. For me, it breaking straight away is a rare occurrence.
It breaks in dun 330 because a lot of the enemies there have tiny little knockbacks when they attack. And in Uphill it gets me stuck in terrain so I canāt move. Both instances, I just have to be careful where I use it. In Dun, I avoid using it until I get to the Varle section.
Anyway, I donāt think immunity is wise to put on this skill. Damage reduction maybe, but being able to move a group of enemies around to a specific spot is way too strong to be invulnerable as well. At least Pyro is stationary while casting their channel.
BTW, I use Mouse Mode for Frost Pillar. I find itās easier to cast if you hold down the cast button and then release, instead of trying to tap it. Thatās not a problem exclusive to Frost Pillar. A lot of other similar skills have the same problem, like Wugushiās Poison Pot and Warlockās Pole of Agony.
I still think Cryo needs some improvements to make up for the damage it lacks. Maybe some sort of ability to work with when fighting those immune to freezing since if we build on the CC it provides, enemies immune to our CC would be hell to us. Some more range would be cool (Pyroās got large af Flame Ground on top of other useful AoEs like Hellbreath and Fire Pillar). Also can we have Ice Wall block enemy projectiles?
When skills are dumb down and no longer help othersā¦
new daino is looking a little more appealing now O.o
also, enchanter ( the same tree with evasion stacking 
) enchantā glovesā¦
Yeah but will it be enough, I wonder? Having to rely on hit rate buffs just for more RNG to actually hit a class who can burst you in a couple of seconds seems like a balance nightmare to me.
And this is exactly why I hate RNG based defenses like block and evade. They arenāt skillful in any way, just stat check and pray for cheese.
Anyway, I donāt think immunity is wise to put on this skill.
Iām not asking for immunity at all. I just donāt want it to break. And Iām actually being generous when I say it breaks in a few seconds, cause itās always nearly instantaneous in CM.
I find itās easier to cast if you hold down the cast button and then release, instead of trying to tap it.
I donāt know if this issue is exclusive to me, but I use controller mode. Most of the time Frost Pillar simply doesnāt happen (skill wonāt go on CD), hence I must tap and spam it. In situations like Halloween Uphill Defense where I prepare the target area and wait for the mobs to arrive before releasing it, my character will shout Frost Pillar, and then nothing happens (for 90%+ of the time), hence the need to spam. Forgot to add, this issue only lies with Frost Pillar, doesnāt happen with any other skills with similar casting nature like Hail, Storm Dust etc.
You two should respect your betters.
First we clerics discuss, along side with our good old wizard friends, then when we are done, you guys can talk about whatever it is you guys talk aboutā¦ something about smashing rocks with sticks, perhaps?
Oh yeah thatās not just a problem with you. Thatās a lag issue that happens with a lot of different skills and casts. I find it happens a lot to me when Iām playing on my clerics when the server is being grumpy.
Itās especially terrifying when Iām farming in HG370 as my featherfoot and trying to do a swell mob combo. My character will cast Swell body but nothing will happen, then the linked mobs will attack while they are stuck in casting pose.
Sounds like a different problem then cause for me the issue is really only Frost Pillar.
I like them because such a system doesnāt put the aged players in an disadvantaged position because they have not the best reactions anymore. Furthermore the āgrphic engineā is not able to realize a āskillā-based fighting system.
