[1.2.384] A Cannon Shooter is born

Cannoneers come out way after chaos.

@ above: Don't care. Comparison is retarded.

Way to bash another person's post without considering what they're even talking about.

Read my response to you being wrong please.

Okay.

The reason you are wrong is not because your point is not true. You are wrong because you're looking at it in the wrong way. You're seeing it as "oh my main attack has a huge vulnerability". I'm seeing it as "oh my main attack makes me invincible for 95% of it's duration". You being vulnerable isn't a weakness. The VAST majority of classes attacks while being vulnerable 100% of the time including this one. Attacking from afar doesn't solve the fact that they can still be hit because bosses clearly have the range to do so, and demo making us open for a very short amount of time doesn't mean our ability to stay completely out of harms way for upwards of 5 seconds if we need it (not to mention healing of both HP/MP ON COMMAND) doesn't matter.

Our ability to deal damage literally does not matter because we don't have to. The ranged classes do. We have advantages that make us unique and it is for that reason that i can contribute (i can even go so far as saying i'm invaluable) and be part of major boss runs while being the lowest leveled member. Sure, there are stronger buccs than me. There are stronger buccs that also don't miss on those bosses. But that clearly doesn't matter. That isn't what our class is about, and i don't think you realize (even after all my rants to you over the years on the subject) that because it's been pounded into your mind that "damage is everything".

That, or you're just reflecting the retarded japanese players perspectives, in which case it's not your fault for being shunned causing you to think your class is s'hit when it isn't.

After reading, I see that you completely missed my point entirely. You're taking it as I'm saying LOLVIPERSUCKBECAUSEWE'REVULNERABLEATTIMES. No... I'm saying if you get struck when you're vulnerable and the boss does more damage than you have HP, you're f'ucked, where as this new class won't be, as a ranged character because it has more HP and defense.

Let's say you have 10,000 HP.
The boss does 11,000 damage.
The Cannon Shooter has 12,000 HP.
You die.
Cannon Shooter lives.

The ranged character wins by tanking, where as the close-up, melee class is screwed.


Also, quit f[b]ucking calling everyone and everything retarded[/b]. I do believe there's a new step-up in the whole insult thing in the rules, so you're taking things a bit far and are going to get a stick in your ass if you don't watch out.
