Pardoner Feedback

My main character is a Pardoner so I want to get right at it:

The Good:

  • Still gets combat power via Discerning Evil, Magic Defense, Indulgentia

  • Is at the center stage to help twinking being more bearable

  • Has really cool lore aka we believe in the power of silver

  • It is really cool that Pardoner can be different. I don’t have Paladin as a base so I will not be the one to sell Barrier. This already creates chat.

The Bad:

  • Makes classes obsolete, which isn’t the pardoners fault but rather that the other classes bring so little to the table to begin with.

  • Is too reliant on being in the high traffic town channels

  • Spellshop is massively lackluster and basically a huge loss of opportunity.

  • C3 is simply a loss

  • Oblation should be fleshed out further


Spellshop:
Can only hold 3 spells. Aspersion/Blessing/Sacrament. Those are absolutely great to have, however I would vote that the duration of the buffs should be decreased to 30 minutes

Additional things that you should be able to buy from the spellshop tax free and of course only if you have them and generally 15 minutes in duration tops and you lose them if you move out of the zone (not if you change channel):

A full heal
A revive buff

Bokor Pardoners could attach some kind of minions to you

Krivis Pardoners can sell you short lightning based enhancements

High level clerics might sell you something akin to safetywall that has a chance to negate any attack at % chance.

Oracle could reduce the provokable targets or increase it - as you desire

I could go on but basically you give the possible cleric roles something that happens when they pick pardoner and they all enhance the convenience of grinding in a particular zone.

That way you drive the pardoners out of the cities and tackle a big problem - getting people rebuffed. Right now blessing falls of so quickly it becomes inconvenient and I tried to go the grinding hotspots, but it just isn’t profitable since nobody is looking for you there.


C3 needs to be buffed - I have no idea how


Magic Defense should allow magic damage to actually go down to 0 and no hit unless to cap at 1


Simony has to be reworked aswell, but not sure how.

Overall I would say you did a great job on that class and not too much is needed to make it more enjoyable instead of a character that you dump somewhere in klaipeda/fedimian

Personally I wished they reworked Pardoner a bit to be weaker versions of the skills they sell. As they are now, they make Paladin C3 utterly useless to those who follow the kToS meta for ET. One of the best skills you get for going Paladin3 is Barrier and that is replaced by a scroll. Other than that I liked your feedback on the class and it does seem mostly like a vending class with really high magic defense capabilities.

If skills had stronger attributes it would go a long way to help preserve the classskills.

These aren’t scrollable.
