EdgeVanhite Posted December 20, 2014 Report Posted December 20, 2014 Wow! Cool Update! First the GS, now the bolters, LK and assassin's SB got nerfed.. So is it safe to assume that next will be the snipers and champs then? I wonder how long this server last.. Hey hey Gen, how bout putting delay on seeds too.. or make it so that you need 3 kiels to spam seeds.. hahaha!:3 1 Quote
Genesis Posted December 21, 2014 Author Report Posted December 21, 2014 There really shouldn't be much of a difference for legitimate players. Macro users, would notice a significant delay. There are two types of skill delays, client side and server side. Client side delay is determined primarily by the sprite animation. Server side delay for the skills is determined by timer calculations. (You can spam x skill after y after cast delay). All we did was modify this delay to be on par with client side delay. Thereby preventing third party programs or macros from being effective. Macro users (and other third party programs) will be at a disadvantage to legitimate players. All these skills changes were tested with by myself, and 3 other players. All from different area of the world (1 from US, 1 from Europe, 2 from different regions of Asia). All of these players knew the skills being modified, and knew the class well. My suggestion would be to give the changes a chance, we can tweak skill delays as needed. And yes, we will be modifying other skills in the future as need be. :) 2 Quote
