Quite a bit of time has passed. And I believe we all see what the "balancing" on sage did to the class in the long run.

Many people already knew what the changes would do.  It was all expected. 

A bit of time has passed since the Sage era, and in the heat of it I decided to try and grab PA's attention with a series of greatly detailed posts regarding the fears all of us within the sage playerbase had over the constant and overbearing nerfs to the class. 

At the time, the community outside of the sage playerbase was not ready to hear any opinions arguing the severity of the nerfs that were applied to Sage in both specs (awake and succ.) But now that time has gone by, I've noticed more and more that the community that once hated sages guts wholeheartedly - slowly but surely are coming to realize that the repeating and overbearing nerfs he received were far too much and completely neutered the class outside of playing him with near full c20 gear. 

This is why, I believe now more than ever it's important to bring attention to the prior posts and opinions posted there.  So here they are.

Let's ACTUALLY talk about Awakened Sage Changes. (From the perspective of a day one sage lover)  https://www.naeu.playblackdesert.com/en-US/Forum/ForumTopic/Detail?_topicNo=14251&_opinionNo=0


Awakening Sage's Overcharged Bolt Needs To Be Reverted Or Removed Completely   https://www.naeu.playblackdesert.com/en-US/Forum/ForumTopic/Detail?_topicNo=15250&_opinionNo=0

When do the Sage Nerfs stop? https://www.naeu.playblackdesert.com/en-US/Forum/ForumTopic/Detail?_topicNo=18913&_opinionNo=0

With all the recently GL changes and reworks with current classes receiving a lot of the same things sages were nerfed for ( One example is large range and duration spammable iframes **ahem ahem DK***) I think it's sincerely time to revert a lot of the changes made to sage so that he can truly be viable again in todays meta, instead of a completely forgotten class.  

Thanks. 


(P.S the reason I'm linking the previous posts is because they all have a LARGE Amount of details and information in both the comment sections and the posts themselves. I implore everyone who cares to take a look at them all.  


Hopefully this post brings more attention to what was ignored in the past, and hopefully it leads to a brighter future for Sage (Awake & Succ)

****EDIT*** ( Corrected a few spelling errors, missing words, and linked a few extra opinion posts with a little less detail but still important for the conversation.)
