Force devs to play on a live server awaken witch in Solare for a day and do some uncapped PvP too and ask them after if the class is viable or have they perhaps forgotten it back to the last decade!?!?

Awaken wiz even tho in bit better shape is almost as bad... or if you dont give a shit to make awaken mages viable offense in PvP then atleast upgrade our buffs to party to where they are as good as Shai's and last whole minute etc. Such a weaksauce moves for years by now to push new classes and keep the fotm balancing instead of making this game nice for people who like to play older classes too! Oh and if someonem mentions the small changes devs have given to awaken mages in last revamps have been inept and in current pvp something that feels more of a spit in the face than something that actually helps.

It would be nice if Devs and even some of the community remembers there is awaken side to mages too and some still PvP with awaken mage. Even tho it has been neglected for years... I hope when these damn pvp balances come they will finally shit on succ and buff awaken mages as they should have done long ago, specially for witch as wiz awaken still fight a bit/has higher dmg potential in masspvp + they have grab for 1v1 even tho wiz grab is probably worst grab ingame. 

If you are still trying to PvP in BDO as a caster, that you are choosing to lose. Your choices are simple and straightforward.

A.) My personal favorite, stop being mad at being fodder in PvP in BDO. And just go PvP in another MMO that allows casters to be competitive in PvP.

B.) Just flatout reroll to another class.

C.) Be satisfied with being fodder content for others in PvP.

The choice is yours!

Wow, what a genius.   

Truly Sage advice!

pls dont make us into a buffer class i roled this spec to be a nuker. makes us viable as that. 

They could start with looking into why almost every awaken skill is reduced by 50% or more in PvP. Yoke of PleaseGrabMe having hilarious 70.9% pvp reduction.. why? cos reasons + awaken witch does too much dmg according to ?? and ??? and J (who just wishes to reduce all PvP dmg by 100%).

Maybe PA should do something about that... and the fact that some classes simply don't even take dmg from awaken kit because of POORLY managed (only succ casters given consideration) class vs class modifiers no doubt adding into that pvp dmg reduction hilarity. And by do something I don't mean Jay's plan of upping the reductions.

Quit BDO or quit your class, that's your brilliant solution? People shouldn't have to 'quit' or 're-roll' because of Pearl Abyss' incompetence when it comes to class balance. It amazes me how there's so many people that think the way you do. That's partly why so many classes get neglected to begin with. Re-roll to the FOTM OP class. When that one gets left in the dust, jump to the next one! And on it goes. It's a slap in the face to people who genuinely like a certain class and stuck with the same character since the beginning. Especially when you look at how much smoother the Witch/Wizard is on Black Desert Mobile compared to Black Desert Online even though the latter came first.

Both awaken casters are fine as it is. If you wanna buff them you will have to nerf them at the same time. Class by design to be support character more than a main character. 

It's like idk, playing soraka in league then complain that you can't one shot people? 

This dude doesn't know what witches or wizard even do except press heal and speed spell
