Shai needs some love in the PvE department.

Also the fact our boomerang hitboxes are inconsistent that we tend to actually miss mobs even when visually you'd think we would hit them..

 

Can we get a 50% reduction of our Lute skills too? There are far more potent debuffs ingame on a shorter cooldown, and yet we are left behind under the nuance of 'support class'. In reality we don't even meet this condition with such a long cooldown on a debuffing skill that effects all modes of play, but other classes are seemingly exempt.

Fully agree with everything that's being said here, our combat style being designation as "support" is a joke and simply not how BDO works.

 

With a company that prizes itself so much on the solo viability of playing this game you'd think that we should at least be able to keep up during solo grinds and then be able to shine at party spots.

 

In our current state there's one spot in the game where we shine, while being at the bottom end in every other grind spot by a large margin, this is not fair.

 

Using the excuse of her being a "support class" to avoid addressing her issues and viability as a main just hurts my heart and is not fair.

Bumping this because we still need these changes desperately, we still can't grind hadum effectively, had no dev response and didn't even get the new Shai outfit this patch.

Another sad Wednesday.

When the skill add on revamp came out and they didn't give Shai t3 add ons and nerfed the add ons she used on her key grinding abilities. I knew that they just didn't care about the class. Its just too much to overlook:

No monster dmg on talent weapon like awakening weapons

Talent AP doesn't add to main hand AP.

Poor mobility 

Can't pvp but can be griefed and killed

Forced to use two sets one for grinding the other for group pvp

Questionable hit boxes on her florang skills

Feels like a bdo lite character

Doesn't have T3 skill add ons like everyone else

 

The whole class needs revamped, because at this time Shai doesn't really fit into the world of bdo. Given PA's history on class changes, its unlikely that Shai will ever receive any significant changes. Its why I took the plunge and rerolled, so I can no longer be disappointed. I really like the class premise but PA doesn't really care about them. I feel its a waste of time to wait for big changes that will likely never arrive.

They dont make enough money off shai, so its not important too them sadly.. And to add, please give shai an S block she could hold her boomerang infront of her blocking, some kind of protection for pvp. Also 1 more request, ShortCakes make more Youtube videos XD I miss them..

I said it on the old forums and i'll say it here, Shai is a broken class with no focus. They wanted her to be so special and yet they left her half baked.

 

First no more talent, its awaking. It's annoying not to be able to buy or sell the Sol weapon even if you wanted to like a normal weapon. There are no upgrades for it, yet its functionally just an awaking weapon. He not getting any absolutes is ablsolute BS. That was a free upgrade that she misses out on. Which on that note, the lack of skills she has sucks when you look at my ever growing Skill point counter, yet im fully maxed out on everything.

 

Shai has skills that are close if (if not) straight useless. Play dead was a funny skill at first, but who actually uses it and why is the CD so long? Infact why do most of er support ablities have a really long cd anyways? They made a support who can only kinda support. The fact her songs can be interrupted is also annoying since the afor mentioned CD really sucks.

 

A slow clunkly class that needs a heavy rework. Broken since day one, but put on the shelf since she doesn't make it rain. I'll leave the numbers to the most mathmatically inclined folks.
