    High apm isn't an issue in PvE as long as it pays off. Doing extra work for far less reward is bs. PA needs to stop doing this. It just kills the class immediately. This was the first new class I was looking forward to since I started playing, and I'm already disappointed before even getting to play it. I'm hoping it eventually gets buffed like awk drak did.

    Unless you practice combos for god knows how long she doesn't flow well, i really don't know how to word that better but that's it. On succ I always feel like I have buttons to press, for awk there are way less abilities and you are discouraged to switch to succ because of the passive. On awk her E doesn't feel good to use cause she is stuck like a rock and the AOE is pathetic, it doesn't have variations like succ where u can forward or backwards + E. Her Q doesnt feel good to use cause its not 360, pretty much what feels nice is the slashing dash, forward and backwards F....

Her evasion is so much easier imo than a ninja. I love that i can also throw an attack now and move out the way before the hit explodes.

    I also agree with some people in chat that not every class should be good at everything, but those that love their class shouldn't feel bad or left out regarding their preference. I'm sure they'll come back around with changes soon enough. I mean at least they didn't break your class like awk kuno's, but they also didn't super charge your class like awk corsair. jk, they didn't super charge her. I just wanted to mention my main. 😆 Anyway, people know where they need to go if they like a specific aspect of the game class wise. Best duelest? Best low end grinders? Best high end grinders? Best life skill? Best support? Best group pvp ranged? Best brawler? I like that most classes get their slice of the pie. Also, Succ Valk stonks on the rise?

  • @frootytoot

    Personally think awak maegu feels better than succession, a good awak maegu should be much more mobile and bursty with the passive, and she definitely is. Preawak skills still do nice damage and provide more utility more than anything. I think in alot of cases the clone mechanic in succession is kind of useless in so much content? Though I feel like in awak ur going to be doing much more damage (especially on single targets) than succession due to new t3 addons on each skill making maegu have 15% crit dmg almost always up (10% passive 5% addons) and it is incredibly easy to keep her passive up, pack to pack mobility is also very solid. Still much higher apm but I do think it is rewarding 😊 atleast from my experience!

    Agreed it currently feels below a healthy effort-reward ratio - I don't think it needs drastic changes to be good. Just a couple tweaks to AoEs and a few skills and yeah please an attack speed buff for BSR downtime. I really disagree with the pre-awakening point though. It's way cooler to have a second kit that's relevant to swap to for flexibility. 😔

    I love my Awa Maegu, easily one of my favorite classes. Same exact predicament as Sage, Awa is higher apm 21 to 22k at Hexe but mass majority play Succ, doing 17 to 18k. Most BDO players Effort The continual "Awa Maegu needs more damage" is clear ppl don't understand the class...at all, why would they when there's an easier more braindead class that can cc at range? Most ppl can't even think for themselves when it comes to addons and combos...asking for one and ignoring the other. Most want easy straightforward options...Awa Maegu is not that...sad part is she's not even that complex to begin with...Succ is just that much easier. My clear speeds at Hexe and Quint are insanely fast compared to over half the class roster.

    She's decent. People got spoiled by the super strong prenerf succ maegu. Nerfed succ maegu is "stronger" because of AoE and easier skill transitions but overall, in terms of pve I pull about the same within 1k trashloot. Arguably prefer it in most Boss Blitz over succ with the exception of Bamboo. That teleport over a good distance by just reticle is so good. Both versions def need a little damage boost at least for pve. Don't know why woosa didn't get hit as hard for pve.
