Giant Full Swing Attack bro... Send flying mobs away and leaves FH in dust. They also got Giant FH version. Why no one is moaning over that?
cus giant FH sucks?
Also humans had final hit with divine blade for some small aoe although i don't really care about that no more.
Fighter...a talent used to be seen as pretty weak suddenly hit the top as the pinnacle of all talents in terms of raw damage once you get a hold on one of the newer knuckles. Aoe stinks but its damage, it falls bosses without a sweat.
Although I don't care about that either cus fighter can be used by any race, even being an elf don't hurt the damage too hard, and the missing will power can be gained from being such a high total level from shine of eweca. Light armor does not seem to be a huge loss without heavy armor either.
What I like to cry about is how pathetic gunners had become and now its below alchemy of all talents. Way of the gun is it's only redeeming use for some situations.
But enough about my farcry, this dragon sure knows how it became on top of the food chain :B
Speaking of strategy, Illusion Balor should of been a solo boss instead of his annoying Salamanders (Which keeps on spawning...) causing you to focus less on Balor and more on them. I mean this boss would of been fun if its just HIM and not the annoying Salamanders that destroys the fun in guise of "challenge" but just becomes straight up obnoxious.
Tech Geata with it's pew pews is actually fun because your attention is only on it while trying to avoid them pew pews because Mabinogi combat can not catch up with this nonsense unless maybe we getting some battle overhaul to match its gameplay rhythm in the future which I strongly doubt.
But hey, this is "Endgame" content if you could call it that if Endgame means all the trouble of skills you used thus far are worthless because Devcat decide to say, "Oh hey guess what? We made sure your "useful" skills get restricted just to make it "challenging" enough for you. We will also throw away the meaning of Strategy out the window and just mindless brute force while we are at it."
At least tiny bits of it requires some level of strategy but most of it is just a huge wall telling you "We lied that 5k+ is the minimal requirement to do Tech Duin, its actually like 9k+ equivalent in stats, skills, and gear, but if you took advantage of our limited time x2~x10 AP then your set!" Although out of the 3 races Elves had it a bit tough because 1# Dampen shock requirements is a lot harsher on elves, 2# most melee with elves is close to being mediocre, 3# the "meta" for elves would be Archery which is the most expensive to build for, 4# MORE GRINDING and 5# Single DPS won't matter too much when you have everything thrown into your face.
Other races are pretty costly but more easy to obtain and can even do Tech duin fairly but barely easy since they have the highest survival rate with more easy access with Dampen shock along with better affinity with close combat, which includes having more access to two handed weaponry that benefits huge in erg upgrading while elves are missing out on that they could be using when Archery won't cut it for the time being.
Not saying BUFF elves or NERF other races but I am saying to level the plain field so that every race would have not felt like it matters too much but more on your "gameplay skills" as well as "KNOWLEDGE!".
