Doddler's RO Journal

"This change is interesting because it means that to use Mental Strength effectively now you still need to have defense, something that wasn't required before."
But the new MS ignores your defense anyways. So having defense wouldn't matter in the first place right?

Frost: MS does not ignore your def, it simply reduces your final damage to 1/10 its original value. You still need defense to have a low original value.

Oh I see. The renewal's description on MS was changed. Thanks for the heads up.

Doddler, any idea if Volcano, Deluge, and Whirlwind will affect GFist?

All I can say is that G-fist has a MASSIVE buff. Your monk is hitting 60K Gfists with no real gears and with an agi build. Geared champs will be hitting around 250K I'm guessing? I want to see 2x belt champs one-hitting valk with lex+gospel+service ;)

and a sac'd MS monk could probably tank her.
keep us informed if they re-implement earthquake (it's what i know we're all waiting for here =D)
dave wrote on September 5, 2008
a sac'd MS monk can already tank her with alice and some reduction gear.

interesting about endowing Asura does that mean Asura would also get the volcano damage bonus with endow fire?

uggghhh, if Extremity Fist changed this much then i can imagine the horrors this could bring on PvP. >_<

@Yue, Efist already 1 hits everyone in pvp. Just stun someone and efist them, if they have GR freeze and efist.

Doddler, would you mind trying to make an fs priest in renewed RO? After seeing how your character are able to level very efficently without a healer, it makes me worried that acolytes will never find the parties to get themselves to priesthood. Although you probably don't take requests, I'm trying anyway :3
RO going downhill? but will hopefully be brought u wrote on September 7, 2008
hmm... i post under this name, but in a different light. I will admit, after reading doddler's post the first time, and then after researching the update i was dissappointed. but. if in Korea... the severs went from 12 to 4, and average player base is only about 300 - 500 pers ever. that is something that would desire a change.
Yea that was a rant, but i think you are still the master of long rants mr. doddler.
I do wish i could play the KRO sever you are testing on to try it myself but oh well. I like WoW, so the gameplay style Ro is changing to isnt the upsetting part... its just i dont want to lose what we had before (or now currently). I'll take your word if you say it IS still RO despite the change. Also if this change is made, i hope it attracts new players. Only time will tell.

hey there,
i got a question on the paladin skills Shield Chain and Matyr's Reconing.
Before the Update Shield Chain dmg was based on bare hand atack power (including dex,str,vit), shield weight, shield upgrade and % dmg cards such as hydra, skele worker in pvp
and matyr dmg was based on max HP and % dmg cards ...
so now after the update, the % dmg cards only add dmg on the weapon's atk, but Shield Chain and Matyr's Reconing ignore your weapon's atack power...
so what happened to those pala skills? are they fucked up now or rebalanced...
would be nice if you could answer that question, thanks anyways
