Hey there, my name is Seb, formerly known as Derron, and , former Ruairi server-goer before the merger was in effect. I've enjoyed my time here in mabi like most players that are still around have aswell, but as of late, I've had a minor regret.
As content continues to mature the vast amount of players within the world, I look to the skills of an old generation at times to seek both sustainability and a chance to keep going, even just a bit longer in a fight. The skills I'm referring to are Dark Knight and Paladin. Dark Knight and Paladin are two skills that have stood the test of time, for some, even more so when it comes to Paladin, due to it's passives.
While there's an off chance that you transform without all of your standers activating or having less HP/MP/SP and all other stats boosted via an ability like the Dark Knight transformation stat roll boost, you have access to a VERY vital skill, one that plays a big part in the late game for humans. Sword of Order is an amazing skill that, when given a proper Echostone, can give you 134 extra max damage, which can be put towards dealing even deadlier amounts of precious damage that could help out so much in the long run.
I ask that we come together, that we make it known that we human mains want another redemption event, a chance to go back to Paladin and try some new things out with it, things that we overlooked when Dark Knight showed up in its sleek black armor and high base stats.
That's all I have to say here, thank you for your time.
TL;DR--Nexon should bring back the Redemption event, pretty please.
Comments
I'm "tall", and so am not effected by this, but I agree you should be able to go back and forth as often as you want, like you can with demigod.
How can there be "another" of an event that never happened? But more importantly, why come together and ask for the ability to switch between two outdated and mostly useless options when we could come together for an actual revamp that makes all transformations worthwhile? Theres quite a few threads asking for transformation revamps already, you might want to show some support to those instead so the problem of DK being worthless endgame and Paladin only being useful with one specific reforge, both could actually provide useful relevant scaling boosts that would actually be worth using in combat.
That would be a side effect of BRINGING it back, there was a redemption event in the past where you could switch back, putting more interest and awareness into this is exactly what we need for any kind of change to be set into motion to make both of the transformations more relevant to the current games itinerary. Keep an open mind.
I agree though that we need a revamp for Paladin/Dark Knight.
You're a dark knight forever and it serves you right.
Well actually, because of my build, Dark Knight actually makes me literally indestructible in terms of MAX HP when using my one handed ego, but please, do bring that forward in a Duel later on, I would love to see what your other views are.
1) Allow unlimited switching back and forth; lore be damned.
2) Create an animal transform for humans like Beast and Falcon.
3) Allow elves and giants to become Paladin and Dark Knight. So maybe restore the old G2, G3, G5, and G6.
4) Allow animal and Knight transformations to stack.
I mean, given the power creep in this game, would double super Saiyan really matter now?
I know I'm replying to a year old post, but the thought is nagging at me.
JP also had a redemption event, for a different reason: while they could refuse to change to a Dark Knight, the translation originally forgot to mention you can't change back, so people who thought they could change back, but couldn't, but still wanted to, got their chance.
I think.
Would being able to stack animal and Knight transforms be buff enough?
What?
No need to be confused. The answer's in the thread. Read it through; don't skim.
The reason that transformations dont really provide that much punch anymore is that they are just stat boosts with a minor heal attached. And since the stats dont really get boosted all that much, its really about the same as a persona, which who even uses those? I just tried claudius' conspiracy and my stats dropped :P
And with my beast transformation, i gain a grand total of 1 max damage.
With at least title bonuses staying, ill gain the side benefits of transformation, like my will capping out, and my low dex getting a little boost.
If you want transformations to be another tier of power, all you gotta do is give transformations a unique boost that nothing else gets. My recommendation? A 10-15% increase in cooldown speed. Any more would be too much, because cooldowns can almost directly be mapped to dps.
It would increase the feeling of speed while playing with a transformation active, and would be unique enough to give it a place in the game.
I think not having to do that is the point of the thread.
I don't use trans anymore because:
- It overrides my title, which may give me better stats.
- I can't crisis escape. Give me a better aggro management skill that ISNT Divine Link or a Technique.
- The stats are irrelevant at Mid to Late game content.
- Vital Surge makes its healing irrelevant.
I WOULD use it again IF:
- It doesn't override my title.
- It doesn't restrict crisis escape- Assuming that the reason for this restriction is NOT preventing a glitch during the dev phase.
- The stats actually matters.
- Upon transforming, I (And divine linked pet) lose aggro and become aggro immune for 4-10+ seconds. Assuming that I'm not attacking.
- Upon transforming, I stun nearby monsters.
- The transformation automatically goes into deadly on any fatal hit once.
Either way, its overdue for an update.
