Dual Blades after Big Bang

[Satellite]

I kind of need more information on them. At the moment DBs can ks the crap out of my Aran even when they are 20 even 30 levels lower. They seem to be in godmode all the time, they are fast as hell, they have all good skills like SE(thorns), Shadow Partner, Puppet, Advanced Dark Sight... etc.

That SuperNXNinja class doesn't seem to have any weaknesses. I can't really think of any balancing expect removing like half of their skills and replacing with something more balanced and reasonable... I checked their skill tables and it seems that they just got more damage.

So will Dual Blades still own crap out of everyone or are they balanced compared to other classes now?

You really have no clue what your talking about if you think they have no weaknesses.

Their godmod is a joke, lag for even a second and their dead due to their lowish hp. Plus the fact that they have NO defensive skills means even more deaths.

Fast? Yea like that means anything after big bang. It looks like most classes either get fj or some kind of rush/ dash / tele skill to help them in the mobility issue.

Their dmg? Come on, there not that great. If you overly fund any class you can hit the dmg cap no problem.

Beisdes, most of your points are pretty much invalid.

SE? Yea its pretty good after bing bang since it sorta stacks with sharp eyes ( sharp eyes affect max critical rate while thorns affect min I believe), shadow partner is defiantly not as great as a hermit's (besides shadowers get a better copy of it I believe) and puppet? Puppet is pretty dam useless in training for dual bladers.

And what the hell at advance dark sight? THAT THING GETS YOU KILLED MOST OF THE TIME. get stunned or 1/1 then you stuck trying to get out of, then you die because adv dark sight wouldnt let you get out of dark sight It would have been a hell alot useful if they let you pot in dark sight instead of giving you a chance to keep it on, but nooooooo.. You could always right click the icon i suppose, but thats such a hassle when your fighting a boss.

Really, bladers are just a hyped up in class imo opinion, and really there just for fun after big bang, not really for dmg.

I guess to sum up your question, no one is really overpowered in training when everyone can 1-2 hit everything now >.> At bosses I know for sure DB are not in top tier.

I believe they changed it so you can pot in Dark Sight, post BB.

After the last patch, DBs can't remain invincible anymore. chains invincibility was reduced, so it cannot cover all the time it takes you to go through fatal blow to the next chains. HP is a pain against bosses since you're on their face

I have not read anything about this. Can provide any link that gives this info? Because I'm sure as hell not checking every thread in the extraction section for the info...

Srsly, theres no thing worse than not being able to pot while in dark sight when your 1/1ed. So yea, it would help DB's tremendously.

Dual Blader's weren't nerfed in BB. It's just every class got skills and skill changes to put them on about the same level. So in the same sense, Dual Bladers are more balanced post-BB than they are now.

I'm confirming that you can indeed pot during dark sight.

Ya, you can pot in dark sight now. (I have a level 100 dual blade in KMS)

Thank you for confirming that for me :)

So that's even more reason to get ADS now. Not that I'm gonna get it; I'd rather save my SP for other skills. I mean, if it was 100% at max I'd definitely get it; as it is there's a rather high chance the character won't remain in DS meaning I'll probably be spamming CoH wondering why nothing's happening while getting mauled.

It's just that I no longer have as good a reason not to get ADS as I used to, but I still don't plan to get it anyways. =.=

I´m dying to know whats going to change for DualBladers after big bang...
Like what gets nerfed what gets buffed, new skills and whatever.
I&#180;ve been trying to find it here on southperry but i keep overlooking it i think, because i cant seem to find it. >_<
Could anyone redirect me to where this info is or tell what the changes are?
I would really apreciate it.

Thanks~

Believe me, nothing sucks more when your stunned or 1/1ed in dark sight. I guess with 1/1 you could get out with your normal att. But if your stunned your left to watch your character to die slowly. Being able to pot in dark sight is a great improvement.

Also, even though it has little merit, being able to flash jump in dark sight is cool =P
