Oh, I don't really understand their motive for posting something like this either, other than the given one of wanting to be funny. And to that end, they succeeded imo. I got a chuckle out of reading it. Given that the norm in these forums is often a thread for complaints, I can't say I mind seeing joke threads like this every once in a while.

Tfw nobody here can take a joke, even when it seems to be intentionally bad. And yes, I will admit it before anyone can call me out on it, I know that is very ironic coming from me. I'm terrible at taking a joke as a joke.

Humans aim faster than elves and therefore can be said to be more objectively accurate than elves at actually hitting the target.

Yeah, uh, no. Vision of Ladeca, Final Shot, and (I think) Relentless Assault all actively working together would like to say hi. Speaking from my own personal experiences with archery, I do not have any issues hitting my shots in a reliable amount of time, even if I only have Vision of Ladeca active, and I live on the East Coast of the US. Final Shot and (as far as I am aware) Relentless Assault only make the delay between my attacks shorter. Of course, that is just my experience. It will differ for other elf players who have higher ping than I do, but in the case of ping affecting speed, that affects humans too.

You can say humans are better overall all you want to thanks to their Final Meme skill with 2H Sword meta, and I will agree that, yeah, once they get there with an Erg 50 Divine Blade, they are top tier for sure. They leave a path of destruction in their wake, becoming the kings of both AOE and Bossing in most cases if not all. But to say that humans are more accurate or faster with archery? Please. I have heard enough humans complaining about the Magnum Shot Dan 3 Test to say otherwise (and no, I am not saying elves have it super easy in that test by comparison. Even with decent ping, I suffered plenty with mine and will never do it again).

Side note that is completely unrelated to the topic, and merely a matter of personal curiosity... Why are you using multiple formatting methods to emphasize your words? The italics, underlining, and encasement with «these» symbols all make your posts a tad more difficult to read than necessary at times... No offense intended. Again, I'm merely curious!

On Topic
I'm sorry to hear that you got bored of playing Mabinogi on Hard Mode, OP. If we do get a race change option, or you decide to start a new character with Blaanid, have fun being a Brio Slave until you get your Erg 50 Divine Blade! /s

Kidding, kidding. My sarcasm aside, I would not mind seeing the addition of such a feature. I would never consider using it for most of my characters, but I do have a few that could use a race change. I think I share the sentiment of some of the others in this thread though, in that I do not really feel comfortable with the developers approaching an idea like this anytime soon, given how the Server Merge went...

So, from what I'm gathering from responses here and elsewhere, I'm the only one who would have preferred not to lose four hours of x2 AP in exchange for some Celtic Swords and a single technique being broken for just a little bit longer.

Alrighty then. Oh well. At least I have more x2 AP weeks to look forward to after next week... :L

This couldn't have waited until Thursday's Scheduled Maintenance because...?
