Edit: My opinion to the recent Glab patch (08.11.2024):

Activation speed of Moonlit Blast, Mark of the Moon, Sahee's Descent and Soul Cleanse were really good and much needed for PvE. The increases to our tankiness came out of the blue and weren't really necessary, but I'll take them I guess. I hope we will get more improvements in the upcoming patches!

-------

I've spent a lot of time playing Awakening Woosa in Arena of Solare. The character's movement feels really fluid, and the aesthetics of her skills are the most beautiful in-game.

I really appreciate how most of her skills work, and I hope that the skills I haven't listed below will remain unchanged in future updates. However, not every skill in her kit fulfills its purpose effectively, and some skills feel like they don't have a clear role. With this in mind, I propose the following changes to make her kit feels more complete and coherent.

 
Suggestion: 

-  Absolute: Stormfall: Give back "Stun on first hit" in PvP. (Or add it as Core skill, since our class has only 5 core skills currently)

Reason: Aside from Blooming Death, Absolute Stormfall was one of the few ways for the class to proactively engage and attempt a CC on opponents. Removing the stun on the first hit has limited the class's ability to set up its own plays, making it more dependent on reactive gameplay.

-  Core: Nether Blast : Allow the added Frontal Guard to rotate with our character.

Reason: Right now you can rotate your character while using Nether Blast, but the Frontal Guard remains in the direction in which we activated the ability.

-  Inkstroke : Allow us to cast Inkstroke instantly after using twice 2x  Yangban Step while in Awakening stance.

Reason: If you use Yangban Step (shift+w) twice in a row, the character will kneel down. However, to use the Inkstroke, we have to wait until she assumes the kneel position, thus losing valuable time before Inkstroke is triggered.

-  Life Lure: Allow this skill to flow faster after Blooming Death and Nether Blast. 

Reason: Currently, Life Lure only benefits from a faster beginning animation after using Fitting Step, making it difficult to incorporate into our combos. The flower from Life Lure takes time to explode, which means we need to cast it early in our combo sequence. However, the long cast time doesn't allow us to fit it into the current combo rotation efficiently without losing precious time for other skills.

Example of an optimal combo in PvP:

- Current combo: CC -> Bloom Deluge + Bloomburst -> Damage -> reCC -> Damage

- Ideal combo with improvement: CC -> Life Lure -> Bloom Deluge + Bloomburst (-> Damage) -> reCC -> Damage

-  Moonlit Blast : When casting Moonlit Blast, Flow: Bloom activates and spawns in 5 directions at the edge of the skill an Safri Flower.

Reason: The recently added activation speed really is nice, but the skill still does little damage for how long it takes to cast.

-  Mark of the Moon: Increase Damage by 20% and lower Cooldwon from 14s to 9s.

-  Flow: Death's Proclamation: Allow us to use this skill at any time during "Mark of the Moon" with Lmb.

Reason: Awakening Woosa currently lacks fast, high-damage Front Guard skills. If we could use Flow: Death's Proclamation at any time, we would have an option for much needed FG burst damage.

-  Sahee's Descent : Increase Damage by 40%, add "Recover 200HP per hit" effect and increase the Cooldown from 9s to 14s. Move the "All AP -20 on hits" from "Blooming Death" to Sahee's Descent.

Reason: With the offensive adjustments to Mark of the Moon (see above), Sahee's Descent should shift towards being a more defensive, sustain-oriented FG damage skill.

-----------

Reworks: 

-  Bloodsari Flower

Current Issue: The skill is currently too slow, unprotected, and mostly unusable in combat situations. Its best use is outside of combat when no opponents are nearby. As it stands, the skill lacks practical utility in real combat scenarios.

Suggestion 1: Combat Usability

• Add Super Armor to this skill
• Increase Cast speed and make it more responsive

Reason: It does the same as before, but now you can actualy support your alies during combat.

Suggestion 2: Healing Rework

• Rework the skill into a healing ability.
• The 5 flowers in the current skill animation will no longer disappear after casting.
• Similar to Flow: Seocheon Field, the flowers would remain on the ground after casting.
• Instead of exploding and damaging enemies, the flowers would now explode and heal allies when approached.
• Each flower heals 1000 HP and gives 200 HP Recovery for 15sec effect. The healing effects can be collected by yourself or any party member who walks near the flower.

Reason: This version would offer a supportive role, providing healing to yourself and nearby allies. 

-  Flow: Seocheon Field

Reason: The flowers summoned by the skill take too long to bloom, making it ineffective in fast-paced combat. Additionally, the CC effect is unreliable because it is based on pets, it rarely catches opponents. As a result you will only cast this skill once before you engage and then never during combat. 

You can either completely rework this skill or leave it as it is and add a vacuum for the spawned flowers.

The skill speed up on Marks of the Moon,Sahees Descent and Moonlight Blast were a tini tiny step on the right derection but now where near enough,on Sould Clease tho it was good enough an the skill is fien as it in my opinion.Tbh seeing they buff some other classes that were already much stronger than awakened woosa i tihnk they shoudl just give stun in Pvp to Absolute:Stormfall,no ifs no buts no need to make it core or anything,just give it back the stun in pvp period.Next i would say they still need to spped up the first 3 skills i mentioned even forther ,for real this time .Alternatively if they really dont wanna actually spped them up they can do the damage buffs and CD reductions you mentioned and they should give us vacuum altho if you asked me i would lean more towards making life lure a vacuum than Seocheaon Field.Contrary to what it might look like Seocheon fiel is actually a pretty decent skill for small scale pvp.I like your idea about making Moolight Blast spawing Floe:Bloom tho i dont know how that woudl work and i dont really think the devs woudl go for something like that (probably too much work for them).Lastely Bloodsari Flower if they do the stuff i asked i dont really care what they do with this skill even if leave it as it is.
