I have been hearing a lot of feedback lately from the community of BDO. And the grievance that I hear more often than not is the difference between shai PC and shai mobile. Apparently on the mobile version of BDO (which admittedly I don't play) the shai class has many desirable attacks and qualities that she lacks in the PC version.
Now I know what you're thinking... when concerning video games in general usually the PC version of a game is robust and full compared to the mobile version. The mobile platform is not as powerful and can only yield a skeleton of processing power in comparison to what the PC can do. In this case for BDO, it's a special exception. Optimization seems to be a jewel for BDOM (black desert online mobile).
Now can anyone here attest to the good things shai has in BDOM that you think should be in BDOPC?
The main difference between Shai BDM is that she's designed with the same philosophy as the other classes instead of the outlier class she is in BDO. Currently she's the best healer in mobile, but in the lower half of one on one Pvp (but probably not the worst and not so bad you can't win even against the best classes)
Every class has one main weapon (succession and awakened are separate classes) and one off-hand, so none of that untrable sol nonsense.
The florang surf is the longest dash ability of any class. BDO shai could really use a lesser version of this.
In both games shai has too many abilities with long animations without enough protection. In BDM she mitigates this a little with CC.
No music composition or performance in BDM :(
Knees are OK in BDM.
Until about a month ago, Mobile Shai was only Shai in appearance. It had no supportive functions other than 2 very weak heals (1 from "e buff" with long cd). It wasnt even a comparison.
Recently they added a ton a actual support functions, which are actually better than the pc version in some ways (still quite hollow overall)
1. -10% damage taken ground aura (100% uptime if used on CD)
2. A 3rd heal... gives you 2 heals you can rotate indefinitely and then your e buff heal on top.
all 3 are roughly 150x8 (which in total is 10% of max HP)
3. An awakening passive that buffs the effects of your 3 songs when used in continuously
4. A Critical Damage buff
in addition to having some of the better CC for pve/3v3 arenas.
I think the Key things that Mobile Shai has, that should maybe make its way to PC;
1. Is just the lower CDs
2. the mobility baked into skills, mainly La La La which is the main heal. It uses Come Out Come Outs animation, So its way easier to move around and support all at once.
3. the quick continuous burst of effects, the heals might only be 150x8... but the whole skill only take 2 seconds
