Hello everyone,after alot of members complaining about certain races/classes,other than buffing/nerfing skills,i bring to the table,the total recall...
No matter how well you take changes,no matter how much you love the class you main,i want you to think about ''BALANCE''
Here is the main idea,but before i go further,a notice: i dont main any class,i am not a hardcore player either on pvp or pve,so i am not trying to give more love or less to any classes,i have being,played all classes on Retail,with less on this private server and participated on all aspects of the game,i am not looking to gain any reputation or anything more,than to enjoy the game in a proper manner,i am only stating this for what you are about to spend time further.
The main idea is to evaluate all classes and take measures that an MMORPG needs and stay within the Dragon ball lore.
So lets start,we have 2 main game factions :pvp and pve,something that splits up the gameplay and classes.As all classic MMORPG's have 3 main classes(support/tank/dps),there are some unique combinations called hybrids.Lets say we take those out of the deal for now.
Starting with the 3 main classes in current game.
Support:
Current healers : Dende priest and Poko
priest(hybrid)
Suggestion: Remove any dps and cc capabilities on Dende,give them increased anti cc and anti debuff passives,increase CON and lower class defense.
Current buffers :Ultimate majin and
Grand Chef majin(hybrid)
Suggestion : Ultimate - remove any dps capabilities(aka lower spin damage),give them increased anti cc and anti debuff passives,lower CON and increase class Defense,increased duration of buffs and increased stats on buffs by 15% of current state.
Tank:
Current
tanks:Dark
Warrior and Shadow knight(hybrid).
Suggestion: Dark Warrior – Increase CON ,increase class Defense,give them more AOE skills,give immune to everything buff with low duration and high cd.
Dps:
Current
Dps:Fighter,Swordsman(hybrid),Plasma,Karma(hybrid),Turtle,Crane(hybrid).
Suggestion: Fighter – Lower class defense,lower dodge,increase CON, cap crits on single skill(aka max health enemy bellow 10k,max crit 75% damage on enemies(player) health,no one shot,second skill kill).
Plasma - increase radius on AOE skills,increase class damage,lower class defense,increase CON,remove cc capabilities.(aka copy of turtle on majin).
Turtle – lower cd on AOE skills, lower defence,increase CON,(crits apply as fighter above).
And now the hybrids.
Suggestions :
Poko - Healing skills self-cast only,give DOT effects on skills and increase pet damage(flying dragon has lower defense and more LP and does AOE damage,while the Blue higher defense lass LP and does single target damage).
Chef - Increase class damage,lower CON,lower buff duration's.(aka make it similar to fighter).
Shadow knight - Lower class defense,Increase Class damage,remove DOT and all AOE effects(aka make it equal to fighter).
Swordsman - Increase defense,increase CON,increase dodge,lower class damage(aka make it similar to Dark Warrior).
Karma - Lower class damage,increase CON,give DOT on skills,lower duration's on CC and give longer CD's.
Crane - Lower class damage,increase CON,lower duration's on DOT and CC and give short CD.
World edit:
Mobs have lower defense and attack,less resistance,increasing as level up.
Super,Ultra,Boss,Hero,have less powerful attacks,less resistance,but double LP,also would like to suggest a Guard bar,which we will need to break first,before we start making damage,Boss could spam regenerate his Guard every so often,making it more difficult.
As this needs great thinking and i can say for some classes,needs more digging into skills,i will try to present my full thoughts,with skill tweaks later in the upcoming days,my free time is really limited and i prefer to spend it with my relatives.
For now just have a think and try to suggest according to what you just had spend time on(and i thank you for that) and try to suggest any additions/changes,in the most mature way you can.
If you feel or think that this is not for you,please take all your bad thoughts and bring them on my wall(i promise i wont report anyone there),this thread is a mere try and thoughtful suggestion,you dont have to be here,like or dislike it.
I understand that changes are not ''a thing'' for everyone and some might even not be possible to apply on client side.
Notice this is not the end format,i will keep tweaking and updating,i just had to start it.
Disclaimer: excuse me for any typos,if you find any please let me know,i always try to be better and give my best thoughtful meaning.
