    Thanks as always, Max. I really do like the new format for the skill changes.

            I would say if they change the skill in such a way that you can cast it will using your skills. Then this is really worth. As for the damage boost for this patch, I am not sure since I am a Marksman. And Bowsmaster is much harder to play. ><

            According to Insoya, Afterimage Shot is pretty worth using now. I looked at some Battle Analysis stuff and it’s powerful, even at level 1. It activates both Magic Arrows and also AFA now.

    this cant be serious, eviscerate alraidy decent ish but now its damage rlly start to suck, its nice that they have 1 sec invincebility even tho it seems really hard to use it to dodge attacks, since u HAVE to link it with assasinate, tho it rlly wasnt necesairy to remove 1 hit…

    • Anonymous
      February 28, 2017 at 8:09 pm

      You don’t have to link it with assassinate immediately. The debuff stays on the enemy for 10 seconds(per stack?) so if you use it within that time frame you will teleport to the target for damage and 1 second immunity. That is pretty sweet. It can help with bossing by helping you dodge and teleport right next to mobile boss without hurting yourself, but I wouldn’t really know since I don’t play maple much.

      • Anonymous
        March 1, 2017 at 4:07 am

        But it’s 1 second immunity to 1 time attack. Don’t forget about shadow partner, which in actuality we are losing 2 times attack… It’s a bad trade-off if you ask me, since 1 second immunity is too less. Shadower’s DPS remains bottom for a long time, we really need more damage to make it a better class. They should at least add more dmg % to the skill to compensate the loss of attack lines

        • Boomerang
          March 1, 2017 at 5:51 am

          indeed we need more % dmg in that case, but acording to yt videos i noticed u rlly HAVE to link it with assasinate else u will trigger the mobbing effect…

            March 1, 2017 at 2:37 pm

            @ Boomerang… I thought about this for a moment, and I think it’s because he isn’t in range ( if you’re talking about this video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PDZvdbIEsQw .) I supposed the idea is still the same as the old version: it’s a counterattack move. Time it right, you deal some extra damage and not die against the likes of Arkarium’s instant kill. That second of invincibility is very precious if you played maple a long time ago. Shadowers timed B-step for that invincibility frame.

          • Anonymous
            March 1, 2017 at 2:41 pm

            Just to clarify my speculation, you DON’T have to link it with Assassinate but you DO have to be in range with the marked target.

            Max can confirm or reject what I said because I don’t know Korean and the guy video explained a lot.

            well yeah i used to be a beta player, but the video i was talking about is this one https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qFEzR3fVdP8 u see then every single time he uses eviscerate he has to use the final attack of nate, also ive seen another video wich is this one https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yMYbQCiC2as if you look at 1:40 ull see that the range is huge, but also he can only use it after the final attack ;o

    Claiomh Solais: effect where Royal Guard’s attack buff duration would be reset has been changed to an effect where Royal Guard’s attack buff duration is increased by a certain amount

    After being used, Royal Guard’s attack buff’s duration (will be refreshed → [will be increased by 6 seconds. However, this cannot exceed the maximum duration] “highlighted in green”).

    Isn’t this a nerf? Because before, you could have added up to 12 extra seconds to Royal Guard’s attack buff if you used Claiomh Solais just before the attack buff expired.

      Automatic Healing I: -> every 40 seconds
