I dont really care about pvp in this game anymore its so bad im done with it i do a few rbfs for easy money and awak sage is so op its a joke as someone who played succ wiz as well there not even comparable sage does 20x the dam of wiz and is basically unkillable.

but i love the pve and look of the class playing on remastered its the best looking thing in bdo and this change looks so bad i just cant play a class that looks like it been stung up the arse by a bee every .5 secs please atleast make it sa when invisible...

i think they identified main problem with awakening sage - its iframe perma mobility (and hard to track in group environment - its hard to track just the sage, and wheh its doing it with his team it basically impossible) basically. now sages will have to think about positioning and not be able to warp through entire blobs. 

good balance by pearl abyss for once.

realistically, all iframe heavy classes do have alot of advantages in this game.

Not even remotely. The closest is Sorc, since her iframe lingers a little after like the SA on your crappy bolt.

i personally feel the teleporting classes are all too much not just sage. I honestly dont understand 4/5ths of whats happening in ANY RBF or node wars, (20+ players) even when i turn down graphics to potato. Its just 60 people all doing the same keyboard combo of drop aoe teleport rinse and repeat. Even worse is the fact that half the aoes that are dropped are 90% invisible. Fighting invisible opponents that drop invisible aoe? Hell ya

the invisible man was not a popular movie for a reason

unless we talikin kevin bacon

bacon always wins

Yeah bdo's potato engine can't handle fast moving classes, and they are displayed with delay on your screen.

Fast placed combat only looks good on paper, but in reality it sucks.

The one leg hop is pretty awful. If PA is going to change the animation of a skill a class was released with, they should at least make it look good.

They need to nerf Sage to sell Corsair...

I picked Sage (before awk release) because of two reasons:

- PA ignored Archer bugs (point of origin issue, 70% of skills doing no dmg on elevations) and did absolutely nothing to fix his underpowered kit for 1vs1
- Sage was visually appealing for me, yes I love good looking skills and fluid gameplay

I-frame deletion will go live - its same what they did to awk DK long time ago (which in fact caused massive exodus of DK players). In my opinion its quite a serious nerf and if they want to do it they should revert previous overcharge nerf.

BUT FOR THE  GOD SAKE - leave BOLT as good looking skill as it is now...
This retarder frog leap cant go live - I will puke every time I make this skill...

PA you will cause serious elctrolytic imbalance because of massive vomiting in many Sage players if it goes life!!!!

P.S - each class in BDO should have i-frame. Some with 1 sec cd and some 3 sec long cd, but ALL shall have it. Its a main conterplay to overtuned aoe dmg classes and grab ones.

The highest AP, The Highest Accuracy modifier and buff.  Full Spamable I-frame. Ranged Grab, in the top of base evasion class.
Completely brain dead to play, zero skill ceiling class.

The I-frame nerf is a legit , the only alternative would be removing grab, remove AP and accuracy passive.

Realized that Sage awake has everything the Sorceress could ever want.
While Sorc is balanced cause its a low accuracy class and one of the lowers AP one and have no grab.

Sage awake has no weaknesses in their kit. Like Sage Succession did not have any downside before the i-frame nerf.

Sage is indefensible.  Nova awake is cat pee to compare.

Pearl Abyss releases classes because it's profitable.
Stop playing new class. Become warned honest consumers... ( lets dream 2 min )
