Why are mages lacking in roster choice? One support and one offensive mage. No Arcana nor Summoner was released alongside with sorc even though we had Summoner in beta, and it felt great/solid,
I understand there are gender choice issues right now, and that this class is in dire need of male counterparts. But the point is that we already have two classes already made and in working condition, yet two were not released =/.
Also…
no signs of roadmap – No updates on what’s going to happen with the rest of the missing classes.
not more female classes like thye are have and are about to releasein Korea-- the lolly painter, the female berzerker, and the female umbrella elementalist.
And yeah they could have easily done male priest counterparts for the bard. Or Priest & priestess. With bard being Guitarist for males?
(Necromancer, spiritualist, Medium) the counterpart for the summoner.
Sorcceress - Sorccerrer.
Arcana – Gambit for male.
The point. More mage classes!
and unlike the male counterparts… We already have TWO mages created and on live. One of them being a starter class that was in beta but for some reason not released…
What sucks is we know they did this to milk the releases of updates, they release a class every 1-3 months and add skins and all that, because it clearly isn’t because they couldn’t release them, there is an ulterior motive, and that frustrates me so much man, just sucks my interest out of the game more and more.
i couldn’t agree more.
I was happy to hear that we were going to get sroc at first when I heard the leaks. That means two offensive casters at launch. But got disappointed to hear it was just a swap =/.
I mean, he shoots a bow… but he shoots it so slowly he plays like a traditional mage character. Except you can’t just stop casting and dodge. Every skill locks you in animation for so long that if you have aggro you WILL get knocked on your arse.
In addition to that, Lost Ark combat is designed in a very WEIRD way where projectiles don’t exist. The game just takes them as melee attacks or something with larger range - aka if you manage to shoot a projectile, but get knocked down, THE PROJECTILE DISAPPEARS (doesn’t matter you finished shooting it, it’s part of you, you got stunned, hence attack was canceled mid-animation = no damage, just cooldown)
The onlyone that can really pass is the Artist – which I am waiting for a swell. I am hoping that the specialist subclass is another set of caster-like subclasses seeing how the artist pretty much feels like one theme wise.
Don’t worry cuz you will get Arcana next month and Summoner soon after. Also there’s going to be Specialist classes which includes Artist and another DPS type spell caster coming out soon in KR. Specialist class seems to be Mage class 2.0. Except they have tiny bodies.
