I won't go detail about classes yet. however, since the server was opened and until now (before BIG groups joined into our server), there were only few of us whos keep playing in the server.
There were only 2~3 mages users as their main, the GM really could not touch or change anything about class balance because it will be too much of CHANGES in this small server. Anyway I think this should not be only about the mages, but all classes, since now we have plenty of each classes whos playing in our server, it may be time for
GM to really re-consider about the server class balance.
In fact, this followed-live server update which we just had few weeks ago, mage and elf got nurfedlike crazy than before. It is painfully hard to do era&cancel now and destroy dmg gets clearly weaker.
I know the subject is about the debuff, but before you suggest or ask about balance later, you MUST always think about one's gear and lv and how well (often, i mean it really often like 1 at a sec) you use CM against enemies.
I know we all not noobies so I believe all undertand what i'm trying to say. mage with low lv low gear's DES is nothing, elf with low lv low gear's triple is nothing,
low lv low gear's melee is trash =)
Anyway, going back to the subject, I will more than happilly accept the debuff updates if the fights can be more fun and let lowbies can do something more than heal and immune.
