Corsair Awakening hasn't been getting any significant updates for some time already. So here I will provide the collected feedback from a big part of Corsair Awakening players from NA and EU servers.

> Problem: Lack of Attack Speed Black Desert classes play at a faster pace than they used to when Corsair released. The most prominent problem the class is facing is the lack of speed on her skills, she is too slow for the current state of the game.

- Suggestion: Put a "+10% Attack Speed for 10 seconds when using the skill" buff in a skill, or maybe even on the Mist effect on some of her skills. Reduce some of her skill cooldowns a bit to adapt to this change.

> Problem: Class summons (Scallywags) Her summons are outdated and barely work for PvE or PvP. Their damage is too low and their effects should be improved.

-Suggestion: First of all, the effect that makes the summons sometimes fail should be removed (the part that says However, the Scallywags may have "technical" issues when using the cannon/hand cannon." Second, the damage that Scallywags do should be improved a bit, and the <Scallywag Trio: Hand cannon> effect improved: 80 burn damage every 3 sec is way too low for the state of the game, players usually have around 10,000 HP now. Her skill Labao on Deck! almost never works, because Labao is too slow and most times ends working way too late, like even more than 5 seconds late. Either fix Labao, or rework the skill to give it a different effect.

> Problem: Low count on protection on skills. Corsair Awakening has many gaps in her protected skills, and it makes no sense that some skills are unprotected.

- Suggestion: Make "Wave-breaker Patraca" Super Armor work for the entire duration of the skill. There is an unprotected gap at the end of the skill use. Give Super Armor (Nullified during cooldown) to "Pirate's Life For Me". Remove Bound on hits from "Close Quarters: Charge" and give Super Armor to the skill.

> Problem: "Heart-catcher Patraca" is in a really bad state. Her grab skill, "Heart-catcher Patraca", is way too slow compared to all the other classes. See classes like Sage, Hashashin, Scholar. Their grab is also ranged but it's way faster than "Heart-catcher Patraca".

- Suggestion: Make this grab skill faster, right now it's not worth using at all, OR make us able to rotate the camera when using the skill since it's slower than any other grab in the game.

Reminds me of this...

what are the exceptions ???

I used to leave real feedback but now I'm team delete succession and awakening corsair.  Hear me out.  Both specs are terrible.  It's time to remake corsair as an ascension class with a sick trident like she originally should have been.  #Trident

I am also heavily in favor of completely removing the class from the game and replacing it with a new class with a similar theme and the same outfits. I know this might seem like an exaggeration but I really believe this because the problems with this class are inherent to how it functions and can't really be fixed by merely increasing damage or protections.

Everyone tought that this class should have a trident before it was even released.

The Slippery Scallywags aren't real summons in my opinion. They would be better described as turrets that deal damage only for a few seconds, if they even show up at all because they still have "technical" issues.

It should be obvious that this class should be the best sailing class, but all it does it give 1% big ship stats, which is extremely neglieable.

I know that remaking the whole class might be excessive, but it would be better to do this sooner rather than later.

Agree 100%

I'd also add that the recent fall animation change should be reverted on Tide-Splitter Patraca, so that we can flow skills out of it again, most importantly Wave Skedaddle, instead of it having very clunky interactions now. (And that's not even to mention the bug...I don't have to explain that just a little bit of testing will show it)

As well as the S-block animation lock, since the only way to break it is with spending more stamina that the class is already lacking. Either by fixing the inherent bug to it or just removing the active blocking animation entirely.

And I think with reducing the skill cooldowns on attacks i think its also worth considering reducing the cooldown on the Mareca Swing or Wave Skedaddle iframes. I think the intent originally with having low amounts of protections on skills was balanced around having access to multiple iframes to compensate, but the duration of these iframes is lower now compared to many classes (like dosa, woosa, deadeye etc.) Combined with the 4 second cooldowns on these, the class ends up not having as much consistency with using iframes compared to even some classes that have more protections and weren't designed to rely as heavily on iframes in the first place.

The class desperately needs adjustments for the current state of the game. PvPing on this class as opposed to most other classes is basically playing an entirely different game.

Agreed 100%. Her awakening kit needs overhauled for sure! It's weak, clunky, and glitchy...and rather dumb (in my opinion). I would have prefered a trident. Keep with the mermaid/pirate theme. Otters and a harpoon gun? Really? She also needs work when it comes to the water (swimming/sailing/fishing/bartering)... She should be more at home at sea! Her mermaid form is underwhelming (you can't customize it at all and only lasts a few seconds at a time) and it really eats through the stamina to where it's not even worth using in the water (even with swimsuits/splash/diving gear).

So, yeah either give her a complete overhaul or release a new class altogether that's done better! She should be an actual pirate captain and mermaid, not a kid playing at one...
