This games population is not that great, and there aren't that many people seriously playing the class. There is information and discussion on this class in the BnS Academy discord server though.

It still doesn't negate the fact that it's dumb to make it cost that much money. Yea, from a corporate perspective, of course, but why do you think this game is as dead as it is? It's because of stuff like this.

Why does it cost the price of a brand new game just to reroll to another class? Why is it necessary to seal items up just to send them to an alt character on the same account?? Not to mention the items that you cannot send at all. If you do the math that is roughly $40. In games like Final Fantasy, all you have to do is swap the weapon and gear your character is using. In BDO all you gotta do is put the stuff in your warehouse/storage, then change characters and take it out. But this game makes you pay for something so trivial??? Seems like NC will exploit anything that can make the money.

Yeah. Soon as I saw they were moving to AWS before the migration, I figure it was mainly to cut costs. They so obviously don't care about game performance or anything else for that matter, other than money. Nobody needs to spend another dime on this game. Good thing I quit 2 days ago.

NC has made a lot of bad decisions, but this may be by far the absolute worst. There is no way in the world that any rational person could look at this and be like hmmm this is a good idea, let's just nerf all the gold in the game by 60-70%. That should help players progress and want to play the game. Right???? This will affect ALL players and could potentially kill the game for real. We always joke about Ded game, but this time it could be real. What on earth could anybody possibly do with 40g a day? This doesn't count having to repair weapons and stuff like that. What if you wanna do Heavens Mandate? You gotta buy the shards to make the orb. That's like 35g right there, just for that one dungeon. This company continues to make one mind boggling decision after another. They have no empathy for the player base what so ever. Whoever is running the show at NCSoft, and whoever is heading the development team for BnS needs to be removed and replaced PERIOD. I could probably say the same for NC West. We are not living the days where you can just make a product and people will just buy and play it. People have more choices and options than ever before and even the ability to influence what people play. BnS is NOT in a good state right now, so a rational think would do all they could to keep the game going in a positive direction................That is.... If they even care right??

You can't say whales have no gold if they are buying it. How they get it doesn't even matter. If you're going to slow down the rate of progression on this game to a grinding halt, then people are not gonna play. Particularly if you are a new or mid tier player. That is the whole point of peoples frustration about this.

Soooooooo....... When is NC gonna address this.....So many players by name but not gonna put names here.... It seems to be apparent here that NC no longer cares about fair and proper game play... Some of these players have been reported and they aren't doing a thing.. The result is more and more players are doing it and now this season it is way outta hand...

Super late on this post, but my 2 cents... KFM became a problem when they allowed Q/E to move forward. This allowed them to escape more situations. Used to, you had to be close to your opponent to get the iframe and if you were hit 3 times during it, you got 6 seconds of 100% evasion. Back then it was easier to control whether or not you hit their iframes, even though people still did it anyway. Personally I think it's a bit too much to have an SS/KD every 8 seconds, along with a spammable front counter that procs a 1 second iframe and extra defense when hit as well as a self sheathe. And now this being able to move forward on q/e, not to mention flurry reset.

FM Frost Armor lasts for 8 seconds, not 10 anymore. That was nerfed a while back and it's about to get another nerf. I agree with everything you wrote here. BM is just insane. A while back their parry was nerfed to something like, they could only parry once and then it would CD for like 24 seconds or something like that. IMO, if they want to keep the parry mechanic, make it return damage or something, instead of a 2 second stun. Or maybe reduce the stun duration to 1 second.
