1. Defense(Damage Reduction) Revamp
1) Changed Defense calculation so that all Defence Increase zones get increased by same efficiency.
2) Some stats get adjust because Defence calculation changes
– NPC defences adjusted according to the changes in PVE contents
– Defence in PvP increased slightly
2. Maximization Revamp
1) Increasing Maximization will also increase minimum damage and remove the chance to getting low damage
– For example, Before Patch 15000~25000 damage, higher max stat means higher chance of max damage.
After Patch: Range changed to 17500~22500
0Max = will do 17500 and above damage
50Max= will do 20000 and above damage, never anything below.
75Max=will do 21250 and above damage, never anything below.
90Max=will do around 22000 and above damage
100Max=Always do 22500 damage, never anything below.
2) Maximization stat display in character window
– Damage rate changes show on Phy/Mag attack popup tooltip.
3. Item Identification Revamp
1) Fixed and random [Additional Effects] are separated
– into [Fixed Effects] and [Random Effects]
– Can check [Fixed Effects] even before identifying.
[Random Effects] won’t show until identified
– Using Blessed Time and Space scrolls will only change [Random Effects]
2) Blessed Reidentification scrolls released
– Changed Blessed Time and Space scrolls so that they are not bound by level. Doesn’t change the item to unidentified state and instead re-identifies the item right away.
– Can repeatedly re-identify like enhancing.
3) [Random Effects] stats can be obtained randomly
– (Except Gate of Darkness, PvP, Ereda accessories)
ex) Weapons that would get 1% Crit originally = Can get min1%~max3% crit randomly
4. Gate of Darkness Revamp
1) Higher chance of appearing. Even higher on weekends
2) Dark Criso will be obtained by chance
3) Clearing Gate of Darkness will give buff for 15 minutes
– Buff Effect : 50% reduction in repair, Movement +10%, Special Active skill damage +5%, Hyper Active skill damage +10%, +5 MP gain per second
– Clearing Gate of Darkness again while buff is active will reset the buff timer back to 15 minutes
4) Can check the Dungeon result even if Gate of Darkness appears
5) Party is retained if every party member cancels Gate of Darkness
6) Demon invasion time removed.
Because reverting back to fixed weapon damage is too hard…
For KOG, it probably is.
Pardon me but it is not “Defense”?
you’re right. autocorrect is weird sometimes :/
Defence and Defense both are correct, just one is used by Britain and the other is typically American.
Technically “defence” is the proper spelling.
North America is the language bastardization capital of the world. America butchers England’s English. Mexico butchers Spain’s Spanish. Canada butchers France’s French.
…..Or so I’ve been told. I don’t speak Spanish or French so I can’t be sure. But I know movies and such get dubbed in both French and French Canadian.
Well, even though we dont have maximization in NA, it’s nice to see it get revamped like this.
“Changed Defence calculation so that all Defence Increase zones get increased by same efficiency.”
I have no clue what this means, but it’s good… I guess?
What’s maximization? What’s Dark Criso”
Yay, maximization revamp. dunno what the defense thing means but YAY MAXIMIZATION REVAMP!
how to fix game balance
1. make higher HP, nerf CBS
2. make more classes, nerf CBS
3. make higher defense, nerf CBS
so what’s next?
Are you applying for KOG employment? Because you’re doing a good job so far. But you’ve forgotten three key steps:
-Nerf Aisha.
-Buff Elesis. NEVER nerf.
-Buff Add. Then apply some minor nerfs just to put onto the patch notes to trick rubes who haven’t caught on yet into thinking that he’s actually getting nerfed significantly and that the “best balance update ever” is happening.
Propose those three things happening more often, and you’ll be the next game director in no time~!
CrA is pretty w/e now, her damage output is good but the rest is mediocre.
Except Elesis HAS been nerfed! MULTIPLE TIMES!!
“Buff Elesis. Never nerf”
Her >>xxx damage got nerfed due to the projectile damage nerf
http://youtu.be/jyBvosqO1ao
1. Yes, Elesis gets hit by UNIVERSAL nerfs like projectiles, the debuff active nerfs, etc. However they never DIRECTLY nerf her with something that hurts only her. (CA revamp changing the playstyle from mindless faceroll screwing up the players aside.) Only things that hurt everyone else as well.
2. The damage, although ridiculous, wasn’t what truly made >>XXX overpowered. It’s the lack of a cooldown, low cost, range, and lengthy super armor frames that make it more effective than most catching actives other classes rely on. It’s still way too good a catching tool. And GM was already the one combo kill champion before everyone had access to +12 Perkisas weapons…..
She still got nerfed, though.
CA still sucks shet right now in comparison to GrM and BH.
You guys should go to the forums.
Ok understand, CBS got nerfed because the bitch was cheap cancer before. Maybe if players would’ve stopped mana stalling and being punk bitches in PvP KoG wouldn’t have noticed that bitch was cancer. So you only have yourselves to blame for her OP nerf. It’s called Karma, you be a jackass, you get jackassed back. :/ Get over it.
@Endgame
1. Bruh you need to chill with that Elesis dick riding.
2. Aisha is still cancer, the bitch still runs, the bitch still spams, the bitch still refuses to combo.
3. Stop riding Add’s dick as well. We are all aware that nigga has major issues. However, don’t you think KoG will eventually do to Add what they did to CBS. He’s going to get his turn, you just need to chill out, smoke a bowl, and wait.
I think it’s you that needs to chill out. Endgame has already been a broken record for years now and has nothing more productive to say due to not actually playing the game anymore. The only way he finds stuff out is by looking at people’s reactions, giving him a false idea of knowing what it feels like to play Els atm. I’d call it sad but that’s what forumers are usually like on any game, so I just grab the popcorn.
As for the Aisha thing, it’s been widely known since season 1 that she has had no X drop or method of decreasing KD, whereas the only other characters in the game that can’t are Rena and Eve. Their playstyles are about bursting you, of course they’re not going to combo as flashy as a melee would. If you want to say anything about a character, at least have some logical conclusions readily available (i.e. Add has safe normals yet has DP mode for a second mana bar and DE can consecutively cast 2 300 MPs regardless of whiffing).
Might want to go look at how Kozin plays DW….You say Aisha can’t reduce KD..WRONG. You had better play Aisha and try doing it yourself before saying something. Also, if you hadn’t noticed, Aisha can infinite combo (If she attempts to actually do a combo) I’ve done it. So if I can do it, and a few good Aisha’s that I’ve learned from can do it, doesn’t that mean she can reduce KD. I could’ve sworn an infinite combo was REDUCING KD. Just saying. Might want to try to pro-play her before you try to school me kid.
I don’t see the point in arguing with someone who doesn’t realize what DW can do and watches a YT video for “pro-play” from a guy who doesn’t main her. She has Energy Drain as the only method of directly reducing KD.
If continue combo’ing someone through resetting the launch counter, that does not suddenly make her combos infinite even it extends them greatly. The only actual way to reset KD entirely on DW is to have your magical staff proc when they’re about to KD, resetting the entire meter. That’s RNG, not a direct way of actually decreasing or resetting KD in a combo.
Educate yourself by playing something instead of watching YT vids.
“Endgame has already been a broken record for years now and has nothing more productive to say due to not actually playing the game anymore.”
very sad
Yes, DiE can use his DP as MP, but you forget that you’re also sacrificing AWAKENING power. Awakening, you know, THE STAT BOOST THAT MAKES YOU STRONGER?!
Don’t make yourself looks more retard with your spamming “please notice me senpai”
You don’t even play KR…not much better than Endgame regarding KR contents.
Why mention KR for that? NA has DiE, you know.
And I’m not the one claiming to know everything. I can admit when I’m wrong, but Endgame’s stuck in his delusion.
KR patch is based on KR server, not your NA.
KR and NA’s DiE are not the same due to minor buff/nerf patch after the major renew.
Sorry, but different server has different circumstances and problems.
If you don’t understand that much, then you have no right to always flame Endgame.
Except what I said applies to BOTH KR AND NA!!!!
Don’t go full retard…
The real broken record players are you retards that have to flame Endgame every time he posts and fill the comment section with spam.
He admitted that he just scrolls down when he sees a hater post. You’re wasting your time. :/
actually, I agree with this….
it’s obvious he doesn’t listen to logic anyway. so just ignore him unless you actually agree with endgame
and that in itself is a rare moment….
However, don’t you think KoG will eventually do to Add what they did to CBS.
No. Of course not.
They themselves claim Add is the most popular character in the game right now. He even has a LN series focused on him. You can’t claim they only now figured out CBS is “cancer” but have somehow missed things like everyone and their grandmother whining about Add.
…..Not without admitting that KOG is grossly incompetent, at least.
ENDGAME, YOU CAN’T EVEN SAY ANYTHING SMART BECAUSE YOU DON’T PLAY THE GAME ANYMORE! YOU JUST KEEP LYING TO YOURSELF EVEN WHEN IT’S BEEN PROVEN OVER AND OVER THAT YOU’RE FUCKING WRONG!!!
HOW ABOUT YOU ACTUALLY GET THE ACTUAL FACTS INSTEAD OF WATCHING A SSS-RANKED PLAYER PLAY THE GAME, AND STOP TRYING TO FORCE YOUR GOD DAMN OPINIONS ON US!!!
If he reinstalled and got caught up, you’d still find an excuse to flame him at every turn. :/
Actually as much as I fucking hate Endgame’s rants he’s right about one thing.
Add is the most popular character according to polls. KOG admitted this. So he’s not going to be touched. How do I know this? Let’s go back to KOG’s most popular game. Grand Chase…
If you played GC back when the game was at its peak you’d see that there was a certain character called Dio. Dio was very similar to Add in a lot of ways. One being he was game breaking OP. And just like Add he was most used because of that reason. After a while KOG did finally get around to nerfing Dio into the ground. But because he was shit OP and the most popular because of it guess what happened in result of that. Most people left the game. It all goes back down to marketing. If a product is hauling in a shit ton of founds the developers aren’t going to change it. Why? Because it will fuck them over. And why would they do that to themselves?
YOU DON’T FUCKING KNOW ME!!!!
Besides, I’m not the only one proving him wrong. Tons of other people have proved him wrong, yet he still keeps up this act.
Atleast aisha no more blink like hell, love the bitch run… Run BitCHHH HAHAHA… Ohh and the poor magic missle bwahahaha
Shut the fuck CBS noob class
The new director is doing a good job I guess… better than the last one at least. *shudders*
What new director?!
Director’s name: Ping Pong Jung Jong k-poop shit music
… NOT FUNNY!!
LOL That was funny asf. Americans hella racist. I love it.
No, it’s not funny. I was asking a legit question, I did NOT want a stupid ass answer!!
Americans being “hella racist” is why there is a higher than 0% chance that Donald Trump could be the next president of the United States.
There is NOTHING funny about that.
Lol
the revamp on gate should be interesting oh and Kog ismaking a new character too mmm k things are going good so far with this new director and hoping its a boy….KOG PLZ GIVE US A BOY SOMEONE IS BOUND TO JUST PLZ
As someone who’d never played any of the male characters in this game, I really don’t mind if next character is female too XD. I guess it will be either a male street fighter or a female musician. I wish KOG hasn’t rip Aisha’s ice skills, maybe next character will focus on ice. It will give me a reason to play a male character I guess.
What new character? I saw nothing about them making a new character.
Check the Elwiki under the character links at the bottom of the page. I noticed it too and I have actually nothing to say on this one.
Oookay? But how did they get this info?
It’s called April Fools you retard.
Never call anyone else dumb again.
Um… they said they wouldn’t do April Fools jokes on the actual Elwiki site anymore.
Granted, I’m not 100% convinced, but I’m not quite saying it’s an April Fools joke either.
Reminder that April Fools’ is this Friday.
Reminder that 2na decided to prank us with “Avalon Knight” and “Spell Tracer” because he was growing more cynical about the state of the game (He cannot be blamed.) when it wasn’t even April Fools’.
Remember that they said they wouldn’t do April Fools jokes on the main site anymore.
Just because they say they won’t doesn’t mean they will not do it again and besides, if this is 2nafish handiwork the person might as well, be doing one joke a year.
Remember he made a whole essay on how he was seriously sorry about people thinking he had abused his credibility. He strictly stated that he will not do another April Fools joke because he did not want that to happen again. Plus, if it turns out to be fake, he may take a hit to his credibility for real this time because sure the game is doing a bit better on balance, but we do NOT need a new character.
I visit the KR website daily to check for Aisha, Ara, and/or Eve fanart.
…..Mind pointing out to me the teaser for this mysterious new character that only appears on Elwiki’s main page? Because I’m not seeing anything.
And 2nafish DID pull an April Fools’ joke last year after that incident.
http://elwiki.net/babel/?p=2687
Granted, they DID end up releasing a light novel series…..
You misunderstood. He said he’d no longer do April Fools ON THE MAIN ELWIKI SITE!
BABEL DOES NOT COUNT!!
Soooooo…
If you go to Elwiki you’ll see another character coming out. How much money you wanna bet it’s Seighart Elsword from grand chase :P
I’m thinking it is an April Fools Joke, sorry to cause a problem.
http://elwiki.net/w/Character12
It is March 28, today.
No it ‘s still April Fool’s Day.
Malicious mischief Is?
That new character on the elwiki… I hope it’s not another april fools gag
It is an April Fools joke.
Yes, Rose bombed hard with the Korean playerbase, but don’t think for a second even KOG is dumb enough to try to mitigate that damage with ANOTHER character immediately afterwards..
It’s an April Fools’ joke.
Figured as much. Tho putting a joke about new chara before april was smart, since it deceived a bunch of people for sure, it was in poor taste.
That aside, STILL no sign of a character revamp I see.
Or Perhaps KR team is waiting for NA and other servers to give feedback? nah….Im not even sure they listen.
The NA forums had an official poll as to what to do with the Stamina system a long time ago.
Over 60% voted for straight up removal.
…..The Stamina system is still in place. Oh, and they deleted the topic with the poll.
So I sincerely doubt KOG gives a fuck as to what ANYONE other than Daddy Nexon thinks.
Correction, 60% of NA.
The decision was probably made from the results from THE ENTIRE WORLD!!!
They also said they wouldn’t do April Fools jokes on the main site anymore.
They better not do any more. Just hte skipp cut ins are funny enough.
Correction: 2na promised he won’t do any more jokes. None of the others have said they won’t
A new character revamp? But the most recent one isn’t old enough to warrant a new one.
I don’t know how big a scale you’re thinking character revamp sare, but a year+ updates ago, there was much demand for once the worst eve class, Nemesis buff.
She didnt get a decent revamp until the recent all character revamp, but a few times KOG made buffs to her skills and combos, along with some other characters like RF, but those were character balances (in general you could or could not call it a ‘revamp’ but as said, depends on your scale of thinking here)
so
If you’re a main of or WS, Aisha, CA, after the recent revamp, then you’ll know overall performance in Dungeons and PvP for those three is trash. It may be only three characters, but it’s still drastic situation.
performance on Aisha is trash?
pfft…. someone forgets Aisha has always been good in dungeons, plus all her recent nerfs are in PvP
and despite that, EMs are still running and farming MP (especially with meditate), the nerfs have VP spamming more dark balls (you know, the orb thing that hits you for like 8-10k easy), and DW can still staff whack you and even has her own version of stoic (plus her energy trails have REALLY great MP gain for her, AND it’s now confirmed that her hitstun increases with less attack speed so her combos aren’t as leaky)
sure looks like a trash character to me. Aisha is still cheap as fuck. take it from a 4 year DW main
I associate revamps with skill page changes and adding/removing skills.
You’re thinking of balance patches.
If you go to the the new char page and click on the “April” Tag
It goes to a page called “Fools”
Just going to leave this here
Heh. They even colored the link black so you don’t notice that “April” is a link.
“The secret lies within. Some may it lies in plain sight…”
Clever.
given how recent rose is, there’s no way in hell there was another character already
KOG is stupid, but not THAT stupid…
it’s just common sense that it’s another april fools prank that just got started early…
Also, when the fuck is KOG getting off their asses and doing more stages to hit the lv90 cap?
they finished Atlas LONG ago, but it’s still just part 1 of Elysion….
a lot of these revamps and rebalancing methods aren’t bad lately, but they could at least give some notice that new stages are coming…
With the upcoming Hero Mode, I kinda doubt that it will be any soon. They wouldn’t change the level cap right after the new endgame content is released.
But I hope I’m wrong about that though. I look forward to the later part of Elysion too.
Probably when the money is right and so far nothing really is giving that much funds in KR due to the huge screw up last year. and the fact they are dropping in rankings as well. Yeah I get a feeling something drastic has to happen much like how a certain Tsundare Robo Android chick with white hair that claims to not have emotion or is under control of it saved it once before. Oh I don’t think this game is ever gonna be that lucky because from what I understand that was a miracle. Makes me wonder if the 5th anniversary event for Eve is gonna be better than last years 4th anniversary with Raven because its the savior Eve.
@Kwynn
The hero mode does interest me ,but really I think it just might be an over hyped and glorified Hard Mode. If anything if they do anything with it. I really would love certain accessories to get updated or even better give us more accessory sets much like was introduced in Sander Update,but thats asking too much isn’t it? I will give some credit that it will give max level players something to do other than SD , Henrirs and the Raids granted that stuff is considered end game equipment. I know we are getting those crystals or whatever ,but I really would like to see more for something so little I guess.
Question: How is it stupid?
What nerf did CBS get?
I’m searching yet not finding anything, I think im blind.
Dont worry, everyone. Im sure KoG is currently planning a nerf for Aisha
Oh good. That purple haired devil has been overpowered for far too long now!
And the players are such scum! Why is it that every EM I fight is a MP hacker?! And they keep on insisting it’s a “skill” called “Meditation”. As if!
Aisha is considered a devil? Hmmm….
Well duh! What do you think the D in DW stands for?
Devil Witch!
Well I can think of much more silly things than Devil Witch, If you know what I mean ;)
oh, I can agree with that “Devil” part…
how many players saw me in a match and instantly went “I lost” now?
and then they promptly got one-combo’d the second I caught them….
she should have never gotten super armor on energetic… it’s just unfair now
@Magic Spice
i know what you are capable of and what DW with true hands can be like, I am just flipping up silliness.
