I’ve theorycrafted multiple builds based around Mimic since icbt2. And all I have is a name and a costume. I don’t even have gifs or character-concepts via IMC… and yet I’ve been happy to invest hundreds of hours in a character already specifically for that class.
What skills will Mimic have? Will it be a supportive class or a DPS? Will the class have any control over other player/monster skills as the name implies or is it just a name and the skills are completely unrelated?
It doesn’t matter tbh. I want to play a Mimic. I don’t care if they are the worst class in the game… I just want to lol
There are people who, after seeing a Werewolf, probably think also to themselves that “idgaf about anything else right now, I want to be a Werewolf” and so… the planning. Will it be matk based? Will it be patk based? How many skills will it have? Can you cast other skills during lycanthropy? Will it make you predictable in PvP because players will know the moves you have access to? Will it have CC or is it just a spam fest of slashes, gnarls, and bites?
It doesn’t really matter. It’s a Werewolf and people will want to be ready for it as best as they can. People like me even find it fun to plan and theorycraft their builds ahead of time, even if every prediction turns out to be wrong lol
It could come out next week or IMC could drag their feet and give players until December to get a new character to 280 in anticipation of R8 lol
So… when your R8 class comes out, the one you’re interested in, will you have a character ready to receive it? We have stat reset potions so the only concern would be circles. Transform/Shapeshift gives us insight into how lycanthropy may perform, so planning around a possible patk based skill with a block on your casting for the duration isn’t such a far fetch.
Tbh I don’t care about the circle or the skill lol But I offered my suggestion from calculated predictions. I don’t see anything wrong with people trying that build or others, even if it is just inspired by a brief description of the skill and a few animations =P It doesn’t even matter if it’s good or not… what matters is the player having fun with it. If someone wants to try a patk wolf (even if the skills are matk the aa could be patk!) then, hey, I won’t stop them XD
