Fixed chaos set bonus on epaulet.

[MigraneBoy]

Since the large improvement of DEF

I would like to suggest for the removal of Def stat on chaos epaulet set bonus.

Because:
1.Resist skill amp out balanced the other 2 resist which is resist critical damage and resist critical rate.

2.Getting different kinds of build to enjoy with. Because we can't sacrifice most of our amp anymore for better crit rate and crit damage unless we use it for farming.

3.the point of having different kinds of epaulet between chaos epaulet of guardian and chaos epaulet of fighter/sage, the resist on slot are already good enough to make things up.

4.BM2 normal hits became extremely low on TG.

5.The great disadvantages of melee class on range class for using low amp skills as their build for fast casting.

6.We already got the choices of making our earrings and rings to have defense or offense and i think that is good enough.

Remove def? I think its good for farming hard DG.

Yeah i know its a must have on farming on harder dungeon.
But the thing here is, whats the point of having a unique combination of resist if resist skill amp alone makes you almost invulnerable against melee classes and against bm1 or bm2(including force archer).

aside from that, melee classes suffers the most from it being their skills are most likely composed of 25% to 35% amp, while range classes are 75% to 95% amp. Yeah I know we got 95% amp skills but using 1 are very risky cause of the cast time are 2.4 secs - 4.3 secs.

and hey why dont you suggest to lower the atk of the monsters in that dungeon you mention for 200 to compensate the lose of epaulet bonus def.

what i'm suggesting here are for the balance stats not for dungeon.

I don't think there is a problem I got hit fa bm2 1.7-2.5k++ some time 3k.. If they lower the def.. Magic c type will reserve more dmg

Magic c type will reserve more dmg

and that is really what it is supposed to be if they go for damage type.. while atleast the melee hit low but not as low as what is it right now seriously

on FA bm2 and for most of melee this is how to achieve such damage:
2.Getting different kinds of build to enjoy with. Because we can't sacrifice most of our amp anymore for better crit rate and crit damage unless we use it for farming.
and please do remember:
3.the point of having different kinds of epaulet between chaos epaulet of guardian and chaos epaulet of fighter/sage, the resist on slot are already good enough to make things up.

Cabal ain't about just having 1 build for both rate n dmg you should learn playing with ur class/building it right or switch between different builds

I think there really is no problem here. Because it is normal for WA to have very low DPS. But the best attribute for WA is having the highest ATTACK and very high def too. Every class gains advantage of the new update. Melee classes have maximized their defense stat. And if you got full resist items, WA and FS are almost impenetrable considering they use bm3+aura.

Comparing RSA to RCD. (Considering you already have decent RCR)

RSA = you'll receive less damage. May it be a crit damage or normal damage
RCD = you'll receive less damage. ONLY IF it crits. This isn't reliable in receiving normal damage. High RCR doesn't blend well with RCD

For me, having high RSA is better than having high RCD. Why? Because considering the concept of this server which features 30+ amp per armor part, each skill will surely land a high normal damage.

From bikes:
1 slot RSA is 30%. But 1 slot RCD is also 30%. And if we apply craft levels, the equivalent of 30%amp is 60%CDI right? You can also check it on chaos weapons.

From chaos epaulet slots
It gives 15% RSA and also 15%RCD. But 15% RSA = 30% RCD.. Just try comparing that and you'll see what makes RSA better than RCD.

PS: This is just my opinion and observation from all my experiences in game. So I am not telling you to believe all I said on this comment. Thanks

Today all the other sets will have better set effects which will balance the items between them.
