[KMST] KMS 1.2.194 Aran Skill Changes & Co.

[Arrol]

Sudden Strikes doesn't increase Final Blow's damage.

Here's an Aran in action.

[ChronosXIII]

Advanced Combo Ability should replace Combo Ability's Stance Rate.

So then they actually lost 20% Stance rate?

Oh well, they got a crapton of other buffs to make up for it.

Another bug, because the skill description says it does.

They have 100% Stance.

[ChronosXIII]

They have 100% Stance.

Oh! Got it now.

Derping hard...


Looks like they fixed Combo Tempest to display damage but it doesn't build up Combo anymore.

[Arrol]

Another bug, because the skill description says it does.

Wouldn't increasing Final Blow's damage by 60% make it OP?

[Zerard]

Here's an Aran in action.

I haven't been, despite my Aran's IGN. :(

The changes look great for them though, it's definitely what they needed.

[Arrol]

Anyone watching old Pre-BB Aran videos to reflect how far we've gotten?

[RenmazuoDX]

Likeing the Aran changes, just hopeing KMS fixes these bugs quickly. Makes me wanna start working on my Aran again lol. Also wondering what there gonna do with the BaM changes, I kinda liked the way the new aura animations were but hope that they do something good with all of it because it definitely looked interesting.

[Grey]

Oh, right, the Cygnus Link only counts as one of the twelve allotted Link Skills, by the way. (I have two level 1 Cygnus links linked to my BaM, giving it level 2)

Also, they changed the Taxi NPC =/

[iVege]

I was getting worried that Aran was becoming too much like the Demon Slayer, but the increased importance of Combo Ability and having dummy skills instead of replacing/modifying the original ones make this change an acceptable one.

I do like what they did with the Battle Mages' theme, but I also think that the staff and rocks are ugly. Even so, the removal of Sweeping Staff's old, horrendous animation was such a plus for me. I wouldn't mind if they just changed the animations back to being dark-themed—I wouldn't like it if my job was changed to unrecognisable levels either. They could revert the appearance of the staff in the Blow skills back to the old one, but larger and more detailed to fit in with the new range, and turn the glow of the Auras to black instead of white.

Totally remembering: The pain of final charging after our swings, final blow only hitting once, rolling spin was useless. And let's not forget how Neinheart stole our full swing.

Our Aran is growing up so fast.

[Imitazion]

so Arans returned with a spamable ultimate.
I wonder if mages will get the same treatment.

i doubt it, arans combo tempest and demon slayers cry were conditional skills and were buffed indirectly due to their counter system being buffed rather than the actual skill itself(Aran gains quicker combo, combo meter doesnt disappear, Demonslayer got +50 DF from hyper, 3rd job skill refills DF quickly assuming enough mobs on screen). Neither skill has a cooldown, compared to other jobs ultimate. but with the revamp happening, who knows.

I mean already, ultimates are slightly disappearing, BaM was going to lose theirs(till idea was scrapped), WH just lost theirs

[Encyclopedic]

As a BaM who got his hypers gestresst, I am very happy I keep BKB.

[Mazz]

Damn, Explorers block for creation is pretty scary =o I can't wait to see the rest of the revamps in KMST.

[Celan]

Well, this is the first time nostalgia strikes.
I want to keep my old 2D Taxi. ;_;


Anyways, nobody realized that the Battle-Mage Revamp in KMSt may only have been a test/part of R.evolution of R.E.D.?

Yes, Aran can now use skills either through the predefined command+arrowkey combination, or as a single user-defined hotkey. The skills behave differently depending on how they were invoked.
