You can't exactly determine that it's a "F'uck Paladins" moment until we get an extraction. For all we know, Blast is getting a 500% damage increase or something insane.
Honestly, damage increases are probably the best thing for Paladin considering if they fully revamp the class it will be raped in the ass much like Vipers were.

Would you rather not have any changes of any kind? I'm sure they'll arrange that for you if you pissed and moaned enough that your skill you don't use was buffed unneccessarily.
About time Nexon...I would praise you for that except you just had to do this...
Sanctuary has more hits, more damage, and hits more on bosses
SERIOUSLY NEXON!? STOP BUFFING A SKILL THAT DOES FIXED DAMAGE!
What is the freaking point in buffing its damage if it always does a fixed amount of damage, aka whatever the current damage cap is?

Considering Sanctuary does FIXED damage, it was a useless and pointless "buff".
Sanctuary ALWAYS hits for 999,999 damage, regardless of your range.

From how it was translated on my computer, it read that it was only for bosses. Outside of bosses it doesn't even really matter, considering you'll probably be 1-hitting everything with it anyway. A damage boost against bosses on a skill you can only use every 20 seconds...it's a needed buff in terms of Paladin Bossing, considering just about every other class outmatches them currently.
There's also the large possibility that they might be removing the fixed damage for Sanctuary. The notes aren't exactly explicit.
The most useless change I can find is ACB given auto-killing effects. Since those don't (and never will) work on bosses, I've always found them to be the most useless ability ever, unless it's one of those skills where auto-killing also does something for you, which doesn't seem to be the case. Even before I had my Empress set and had only about 15% in STR, I would 2-hit things at the most. Doesn't really do anything.

Fixed damage several times over is so much worse than fixed damage once, right?
Because hitting more times per cast is never related to damage output at all, is it?
What are you even talking about?
Before Baklava mentioned it to me earlier in this topic, I was under the impression Sanc still did a fixed amount of damage to bosses, aka 999,999. What I was ranting about was the pointlessness in buffing the damage on Sanc when it already hit for damage cap.
Why bother buffing the damage on Sanc when it already hit damage cap? 1500% -> 1700% was still 999,999 -> 999,999. Nothing changed.
I NEVER once said the "Attack Count: 4" was "Bad", but apparently you're still under the impression I was complaining about it.
Now that I know Sanc doesn't do "Fixed" damage to bosses anymore, I totally understand why they buffed Sanc's damage.
So you don't like doing 1700% to bosses? That's okay you'll just do 425% x4, otherwise known as the same thing.
