qzhai Posted August 22, 2014 Report Posted August 22, 2014 Sniper can use BOW with SHIELD... Sinx should be can use KATAR with SHIELD too.. 1
itsmePATRICK Posted August 22, 2014 Report Posted August 22, 2014 yeaaa. that's true.. bcos sinx deff too low with the kitty claw. should make it like sniper that can use shield. or make it sniper with 2handed bow. i think that one should be fair enough.
plok123 Posted August 22, 2014 Report Posted August 22, 2014 (edited) This was suggested before, and it was declined. Coz ypur comparison isnt even good enough.. -1 why? Sb sinx deal massive damage, can kill easy and escape easy, compared to a sniper, In this kind of server, withouth a shield the sniper would die instantly compared to an Sb sinx, they can backslide, and cloak.. Snipers can cloak too, but cant escape as quick.. If I were you, i'd polish my backsliding skills with bingbing and such, it's supposed to be that way, end of.. Edited August 22, 2014 by plok123
Rayray Posted August 22, 2014 Report Posted August 22, 2014 This has been discussed a lot of times and sniper is always brought up as an argument. Sinx can dish out enough damage with SB that would kill players instantly, Snipers cannot do that. The fact that pneuma blocks every damaging skill that a sniper can use is enough proof that they cannot do what sinx can without shields. SinX have backslide, cloak, hide and as such, would not need a shield or else SinX will just stand there and spam SB and seeds all day long if they were given a shield. And it is not hard to Cloak, SB and switch to shield while backsliding to avoid further damage. SB SinX is supposed to dart in and out during a fight, not stand there and trade blows.
sartorius19 Posted August 22, 2014 Report Posted August 22, 2014 They actually said it all. What i wanted to add is that a good SB sinx can take as less damage as other jobs do with proper phasing in switching gears. Sure they take alot of damage. But honestly, i fought several SB sinx that can live up even facing 8-10k bolts or 80k Fas cause of proper usage of skills and equip management. Since discussion might lead to this argu. Cause the biggest counter to a sb sinx is prof. But theres a lot of ways to counter bolts now. Your skills in switching is necessary though.
gennova Posted August 22, 2014 Report Posted August 22, 2014 (edited) Lol even without shield SinX is the second class with most HP pool in RO (First is LK). Even without shield they can tank any damage just fine if they know how to properly fight it. On another hand can sniper really tank without shield? Even using position displacement trick using skid trap to par with backslide still hard. Sniper FAS damage not as massive as SB from SinX, unless you do DS with thana card on opponent who have 300+ def (hard + soft). Edited August 23, 2014 by gennova
ChainBreak Posted August 22, 2014 Report Posted August 22, 2014 If shield is enabled with Katars the Kitty Claws need to be nerfed.
jaypeebogchi Posted August 22, 2014 Report Posted August 22, 2014 -1 selfish desires. SB too strong.spam it right boom=dead. backslide =enemy pissed off
Aerofox Posted August 22, 2014 Report Posted August 22, 2014 (edited) I respect your decisions, but let me say my opinion as a person who mains the sniper class. First off, I'll explain why snipers are allowed to use shields. Without shields, they'll be like gunslingers.Second, it's too much to let SinX users have a shield on the offhand. (Also, it'll mess up the + damage in Double Attack, I think.)And just like my homie Collin [sartorius19] said (which is true, he wrecked my SinX before) there are alot of ways to counter the bolts.Assassin Crosses deal TONS of damage especially with SB, and you could say that Assassin Crosses are like glass cannons with a bit of defensive options like Cloak.TLDR: No. -1 Edited August 22, 2014 by Aerofox
bataclanmarriel Posted August 23, 2014 Report Posted August 23, 2014 +1 not for dis suggestion but for "sinx can escape easily using backslide+cloak+hide+kiels xD adding shield is a big no... So -1 for ur sggstion sir.. :)) nooooooo.. hihihi
gennova Posted August 23, 2014 Report Posted August 23, 2014 Can't imagine a sinx would stand beside you all day spamming SB till you drop.
Aerofox Posted August 24, 2014 Report Posted August 24, 2014 Can't imagine a sinx would stand beside you all day spamming SB till you drop. True. so much SBs on WoE that it made my monitor lag like hell. xD
gennova Posted August 25, 2014 Report Posted August 25, 2014 As for sinx I would prefer boosting their Soul Breaker damage so sinx can have another option to pvp using shield and can maximize all their skill as I love playing hybird build lol. But yeah as for this sugestion I dont think many ppl would agree with this because sinx is a class that considered top tier.
