    Why kog only nerf CA???? Where’s it ajust from other class???

    • Endgame says:

      It’s simple: they keep nerfing CA as a smoke and mirrors show to make it look like they do nerf Elesis, (Even though the nerfs are usually minor at best.) only to buff her up later on.

      GM is the canon class of their favorite child. So she’s obviously not getting nerfed. And people STILL think BH is underpowered. (lol) So they won’t nerf her.

      Add attracting the edgy 15 year olds is what’s keeping the game afloat. They can’t afford to nerf him. (Allegedly, nerfing Dio is one of the leading causes of GC’s demise.)

      Lu is bait for the lolicons, one of the demographics that are the most willing to be parted from their money. KOG missed the part where they’re only a major demographic in Japan, but whatever. They need that lolicon money! They can’t nerf her. (Or her incesteous pedo butler.)

      But CA? It’s easy to give her slight nerfs and make it look like they’re doing something about her.

      • boiiii says:

        All I could read from your comment: “I’m salty and I think character design has anything to do with balance”. GC’s downfall was because the game turned into complete utter shit. They nerfed CA because she was ridiculous after transcendence, look up videos before you talk shit. seriously wondering if i should’ve taken you seriously lmao

        • UNub says:

          But endgame doesn’t play Elsword against geared players under a somewhat competitive setting. I’d rather excuse his ignorance and correct him through the proper means of video linking than declare him salty when he’s a natural born cynic. Elsword could be doing perfectly fine and he’d still be salty about the game. (Top 50 games is already pretty darn good.)

          Endgame, why was CrA deemed too powerful and not Grand Master who you constantly ride the S2 bus about? Because GM was only powerful when WS was, aka they were too tanky from renewals (entire hypers were doing 1’s on WS before NF got meganerfed). Here, watch this. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bqq68luDgII#t=6m33s

          Luciel only needed the massive tone down of their release and renewal. Right now, they need to get momentum the same as any other character. In 3v3 Farmsword, Demonio holds rank 1 due to a no lifer along with Wind Sneaker at rank 2. Numerous LK players dot the board due to 3v3 being his best mode and transcendence making it even godlier. You can’t mana break Windmill. CC-based classes are dominating in 3v3 right now, and naturally Grand Master isn’t high on that. Her transcendence only matters in 1v1 also, which from a 3v3 standpoint means she got no trans lol. The only character that has dropped down is DW because Air Stunner was way too much of a free catch, and Spurt most likely will get nerfed for still possessing oneshot powers when KOG is trying to get rid of those.

          On another note, DW actually won an NA tourney and was on both of the top 2 teams. No Elesis in sight because she’s not high on CC or damage in the snowballish ways other characters are.

        • Endgame says:

          Well I don’t wonder if I should take you seriously, because I know you’re fucking stupid.

          Nerfing a class because she’s “ridiculous” after Transcendence? Okay, so where’s the GM nerfs? Where’s the Add nerfs? How did the Rose Transcendence get implemented as is?

          Uh huh. You didn’t think through this post at all, did you boy?

          And GC died because it got turned to shit? You’re a fucking idiot. Elsword has been even shittier since the summer of 2013 and Grand Chase was still alive for the direct comparison to be made and yet Elsword is the one that still stands.

          • Flare Kyn says:

            You’re the one who didn’t think – or read, for that matter.

          • UNub says:

            Is there any reason you directly ignore my posts or are they just now showing up?

            They need to input to toned down PvP stats first and then decide where to go from there. Spurt, Crimson Rose, and other extremely high damage creators need to get toned down first.

            1. Add can’t use Nasod Armor combo due to light resistance, and other classes that rely on stun got gibbed with that light resistance patch as well, though apparently Korea still barely puts resistance on (EM still dominant due to freeze/stun switcheroo of CC).

            2. Grand Master is only good in 1v1 and now every character has something in their kit to fight her compared to pre-Trans. I’ve actually barely seen any Grand Master just like before her renewal when she went into obscurity. DW can melt her high defense, BM has armor break, Eve players with their trans practically don’t let Grand Master play the game save for CEm. All GM got was War Prelude and SoV buffed with only 10% bonus attack speed mattering in 1v1 matchups. Snap Crasher was removed so she can be contested in the air, meaning it’s hard for her to secure enough MP for SoV and Prelude.

            3. Rose still gets oneshot in Hero mode. If she had no trans it’d be like she got removed from the game, and even if some people would like that, PvE shouldn’t be an exclusive activity (much less gaming for that matter).

          • ThisIsIT says:

            DUDE YOU CANT SAY SHIT YOU DONT PLAY THE FUCKIN GAME!! like the hell dude plz find another game or hobby

      • zetgeist says:

        message repeats:
        since when is lu his mother?

      • Arjela says:

        Endgame, I love you.You told exactly what I think about Add and Luciel.

    • Meh says:

      Cuz the class that controls blood is not supposed to have greater healing effekt than the god damn Asura thats why.

    • Facedesk says:

      everyone (even CrA mains) would agree %10 proc rate stacking 5 times was way too much
      the healing nerf…. she already heals too much

      but they buffed the knight of darkness activation so this is a great thing, shit was impossible to get in pve

      • Shadow S.R. says:

        That’s actually the only comment that made sense in that post. XD
        +10% Wind/Dark proc is insanely high.
        Plus, if it’s with a character that have command with a lot of hit, then +10% is similar to +50% since probability stuff and all that.
        Also, we all know that proc chance can be a b*tch and can be 100% when it’s “high” (above 15%).

      • Malle says:

        So what is Asura??

        • Facedesk says:

          Asura HP gain has nothing on CrA’s

          • Malle says:

            Near death > Full HP with 1 skill

            Um where on CrA can she do that?

          • Facedesk says:

            lets see, any gale skill or combo. Burning Phantom has HP gain, shadow egde, shade scratch

            do you even know anything about CrA?

          • zetgeist says:

            >implying most people who don’t play the CAv know anything about how it plays.

          • Facedesk says:

            well if you’re gonna make a solid argument you need to know the details of what you’re arguing about first

            CrA suffers dramatically from over-healing, its been stated often time and time again all over the place

  • UNub says:

    What awaits this rebalance. +10 Sparring gear, PvP specific stones (though we had Sage Stones for pvp before), and stat rebalancing. I can’t say I’m excited, but man those are some high expectations they’re making people set.

  • CrossSoul says:

    +10 Sparring set.

    Stat modfiers.

    If its what i’m thinking then Elsword PvP is going to reborn.

    Now le’ts just wait for an B-slot event

  • Shichino says:

    Stat modifiers yey I hope the next one would be the gear enhancement modifier. (so +11-12s wont rely on their gear) this will make pvp fights longer, no more one shotting, player moves will be shown etc. Yey!!

  • NATrueCancerElswordPayToWin+12 says:

    RIP my +12 damage :'(

    • MagicSpice says:

      oh boo hoo, your money towards easy PvP went to waste

      i’m losing my +11 damage… oh wait, i ACTUALLY have skill with a DW… mainly cause her short range made me actually have to TRY and catch a player

      all it does change your tactics… anyone that hates this change needs to get their heads out their ass, get off their high horse, get some fucking skill, and stop being a damn troll. cause it’s the same reason why RoF free catching got removed, IT’S UNFAIR!

      hell, i say take it a step further and normalize all stats to 20% AND equalised to Lv1

    • Himako says:

      Fuck your +12 dmg and learn to play. :^

  • Endgame says:

    damn it KOG buffed Elesis again… Look at these buffs wtf KOG?

  • LimeGreen says:

    Okay…first of all…this is EXTREMELY UNFAIR to +12 users who SPENDS TIME AND EFFORT grinding their gear and stats. And this is coming from me: a spar gear user since the beginning of the game (still manage to get SS-SSS rank).

    Also. my WS is 95% into S rank right now. Not sure if I can get to SSS in time with spar gear. With the new stats and pvp stones, I think KOG is attempting to balance pvp a bit by making stats that are specific for PvP (tbh that just means more grinding and constant stat changes when switching from PvE and PvP).

    The most exciting part of all this is the new update for Free Training zone. I was hoping they will add a new map. The current one is bad because of the lack of platforms.

    • Endgame says:

      Oh no. Those poor +12-13 weapon users who had enough disposable income to blow their money on a shitty game (That used to be good, but that’s besides the point.) just so their DEs could kill other players in 10 seconds….. what ever shall they do now that their power has been taken away from them? Win their matches in 30 seconds because Add is still broken and easy for anyone to play and hard for most other characters to counter?! KOG you barbarians!

      • M. Zero- says:

        lmao i love u endgame <3 :)

      • MagicSpice says:

        well, this is coming from a +11 legend DW user, THEY FUCKING NEEDED TO DO THIS IN PVP.

        i actually have to agree with endgame for once on this one. cause i have to run PvP with no red dam sockets JUST to make it more of a fair fight, and that still doesn’t stop me from killing 50% to 100% of an HP bar in a combo… it’s honestly not fun unless i face another +11 user…

      • KatjaEclair says:

        HAHAHA, this matches my sentiment PERFECTLY.

  • Endgame says:

    Welp, this is the end.

    What’s going to happen in the ending? Will they finally make a video that’s longer than 1 minute?

    …..They’re not going to make that godawful ElbratxAisha pairing happen, are they?

  • Tonii says:

    Hope they come out with the anime they promised us. now that the story is done.

    Also hope the trans skills for rose are good.

    Hopefully they took some from DFO thatll be cool

  • Aether-sama says:

    i hope they end in a shtty aisha x chung where aisha is the top in the relationship ;o cuz if we r gonna take everything down, y not? (screw drive him hard gurl o3o b)

    • Endgame says:

      Swap Chung out with me.

      No, really. It’ll really screw with the fanbase because I get to live out my dream while simutaniously sinking all the ships everyone else has been pushing. Like godawful ElbratxAisha or Addx- *Vomits.* Ugh….. excuse me. And all the lesser Aisha fans get to rage, knowing that they didn’t love Aisha as much as I do. Thus, why I won in the end~.

      It’d be a glorious moment on the forums, I assure you.

    • AddFan29030 says:

      I love how your icon looks like the color changing meme dress

  • MagicSpice says:

    such a boring PvP mode… we could have just rematched for this…. oh wait, KOG removed rematches….

    seriously, brawl and winner match was actually fun, they just needed tweaks…

  • DudeLove says:

    “Matching system revamped to match more evenly matched player”. You hear that Rizza? Now you and that pussy B rank partner of yours can die in a fire with the rest of the “star” ranks who rely on that shit tactic.

  • Malle says:

    So now that the initial story is over, can we focus on the individual story, cause I’m still wondering where the fuck Aisha came from…

    I’m also wondering where the Elves are (Never has there been a fantasy game where you had an elven character but never met the elves….Just saying).

    Kinda wondering if Velder was ever freed from Demons.

    What is eve going to do? If I were her, I’d stay and rule over Elysion. That’s just my opinion. Chung can just go back and become king.

    Elsword and Elesis need to have a heart to heart conversation on why it’s not ok to leave your little brother alone. And where are your parents?

    Ara…So many things need to be resolved. Eun? Ran? Her home that we NEVER saw. She’s in the same boat as Aisha in that sense.

    Add….There are so many things wrong with this guy. And now the newfound time trouble made it even worse.So he’s got a lot to figure out.

    Lu/Ciel….Demons…Where are the Demons? You guys left Elrios and went to another dimension, never resolving the demon Issue so they have hell to pay when they get back home. IF they get back home.

    Plot Twist, the El search party dies trying to kill Solace.

  • Yama Raja says:

    Wait wut, there was balance in stat before???

    • MagicSpice says:

      no, cause all you needed was either +10 or above (even less in the case of some classes), or a fuck ton of add dam. that makes all your opponent’s stats pointless when they get caught in a combo…

  • Dia says:

    yaaas underworld

  • Endgame says:

    So, uhh…..

    Did KOG SERIOUSLY fucking not include the ending video with the final stage?!

    I’m seeing people talk about the Solace battle its self. (Apparently he uses Elbrat skills! Because that’s what the game needed. More enemies copying Elbrat, who is copying Elesis, meaning everyone is copying Elesis by proxy. Oh, but wait. Elesis and Elbrat are really just copying NotSieghart. So really, William, Alterasia Type-H, and the corrupted Red Knights are all copying SOLACE! Dun dun duuuuuun!)

    But I am seeing no ending video anywhere.

    Oh KOG. Your incompetence knows no bounds. But hey, that’s why Elsword is on its way out~.

  • Endgame says:

    Now I’m being told that if you get Solace down to 4 bars before the timer is up, he becomes invincible until the timer runs out. As in, the game will not let you kill him before the timer.

    …..

    So, what? They’re doing the whole Perkisas thing where you don’t actually beat him on release, but then the true final phase is added months later?

    What the hell does KOG hope to accomplish doing this?

    • MagicSpice says:

      it’s 12 bars to trigger his 2nd phase, and from what i can tell, you hurt both yourself AND solace until the timer dies

      maybe i’m missing the invincibility part due to watching solo plays (some of which lasting 20 mins+), but given the fight itself, at least KOG actually PUT EFFORT in this boss, unlike scar…

      hell, solace actually looks as tricky as ran was

      • Dreamslayer says:

        I was livestreaming this yesterday and we managed to get the “True Ending” 4 times, which apparently corresponds to “Beat Solace before timer runs out in second phase”. He does go invincible, but if you damage him fast enough to that point, he’ll be vulnerable again before the timer goes away. Haven’t tried it solo yet. And the “true ending” doesn’t do anything yet except for count for runs for the title that requires you to get said true ending 50 times.

      • zetgeist says:

        ran is tricky? I thought he was just cheap.

        • MagicSpice says:

          ran is tricky BECAUSE he’s cheap.

          solace has as much tricks up his sleeve as ran, but a bit worse (like the entire phase 2 part and his constant teleporting

  • Mark says:

    Well, aparently they also upgraded the speed of the new 100mp skill of IP too, but he still nerfed as hell, i will try to see check some others minor changes
