So I'm going to get this out of the way now. This isn't a hate letter, I love Mabi and that's why it hurts that I now see the game is the cause of my resent depression. And no this isn't a pity party. I've had depression for years and Mabi helped. But not any more.

This is just something I need to get of my chest. And I doubt that a Mod/Dev would ever see or care about this post. But I've hit a wall. No matter what I do. No matter how hard I try. How many skills I acquire. I still feel weak, as an Alchemist.

And my friend has explained that from her perspective she's a Malitian (I know I misspelled it, I don't care.) And as one she'll use any tool she needs. Which is fair. But that's not why I play Mabi. I play to Roll Play as an Alchemist.

Which is getting pointless. You can't use Barrier Spikes like anywhere and when you can they don't synergize with any of your other alchemy. Cloud is getting pointless. You can't use it mid combat, doesn't work when you need it. Golem is brain dead since they introduced puppet. Shock isn't really worth the effort it takes to acquire and now doesn't work on bosses or general mobs. Same for hydra. Life drain doesn't recover enough health in endgame. Frozen Blast is so useless I forget it exists. And can we just all agree that the Mana crystallization adv magic crystals are too slow to load and too weak to bother using. That leaves the basic 4 combat skills. Sand Burst... It was better when it could multi blind the same target and had 5 charges. I'll keep the cool down if I could have that back. Flame Burst... My strongest skill that I get to deal the least damage with. If it isn't lag its an friend smacking the target out of the AoE. While you're stuck there. So that leaves Water cannon and wind blast as the only skills that aren't bad... It would also be nice if synthesis had a non random option.

And my final grievances are with the reforge system as a whole. It's pay to win. That's fine I don't have an issue with that. But how random it is. How hard it is the understand what reforge tools do what. I'd be okay with this particular pay to win if they were labeled properly as to how they were going to affect your reforge and if they were random but only within talent for weapons. I don't expect anything to change. And I only speak for myself. But I feel this may be why people are leaving Mabi.

Also want change to my skills. Introducing new Cylinders I'll never be able to get... Just makes it worse. Oh and Alchemy cost too much to use because of crystals and repairs. And the fact the weapons do nothing but work against the user sucks. And before anyone mentions the new Cylinders I'll just say that they might as well be unobtainable.
