Will There Be New Fighter Stun? (Deva Upgrade)

[Zh0ngGu0ZhiZa0]

With all the hype about the upcoming cap raise, a thought concerning new skills kinda occurred to me. Most experienced fighters know that before devastate, fighters have a weaker stun skill called concussive charge. The thing is, many know that empowering concussive charge is a waste of points since devastate shares thes same cooldown as CC. I also know that almost all fighters tend to pour points into empowering devastate. My concern, however, lies in the question of whether or not devastate has an upgrade too (an even better stun than both, that shares same cooldown too, as I doubt fighters will be allowed to use two stunning skills). If it does, then it pretty much means that devastate will become inferior, and will not be used. This would mean that the empower points used on devastate would kinda be wasted, and non-CS users would have no way to reallocate the wasted points. What do you all think? :confused:

I thought about that too!
I hope not DX

I doubt Devastate will ever be useless. It's AOE and a crucial skill needed to get to level 79 and beyond.

I'm not suggesting that deva is useless, I'm simply stating that if a stun upgrade were to become implemented, most would agree that it is wiser to use the upgrade. Also, yes it is useful to 79, but does its level of power continue to increase past 79? Or will it, for example, stop increasing in power at a certain level (for example, heal only goes up to level 10). I was just wondering if devastate will still be the staple stun skill at a higher lvl such as 120, or will there be a better version of devastate? (like a devastate that hits all surrounding enemies) I would rather put points into the best stun skill, but that would mean my points in deva are wasted, and since I cant use sparkcash to buy reset scrolls, I would be kinda peeved. ;:(

i thought about this too and was thinking concussive charge doesnt have ones for high lvls just one while you can upgrade devestate. I highly doubt that this will happen and what would be better about the new stun does it stun for longer than wouldnt just be a higher lvl version instead of making a new skill. i think the only reason theres concussive charge and dev is so that there can be an aoe kind and a solo kind
anyway if cap is raised and theres a new one i think 15$ will save me like 200 game hours is worth it considering i make 10$s an hour :)

yeah, once the cap become lvl.120, there's a new AoE skill, much powerful than devestate(mages, archers are gonna llooooove this skill in PvP, lol) The Korean fiesta have it all to 120 I believe. They have monsters called "apes" later, the 120 skills are gonna be in Swamp of Dawn, so as the job change, I think.

Good question, but I don't think there will be a new Stun skill until the lv120 job change like was said above. It can be possible at the job change we get a branched off Stun skill. Such as Gladiator having a better Devastate/new animation and Knights having to stun with their shields, I don't know. Also possible these skill will deliver 100% stun along will a long satisfying CD. We'll have to wait and see.

Rumor has it that there will be no new skills on this upcoming cap raise anyway...
As already said above, more likely in the 120 cap. which is probably a year away. xD

[Sheya89]

There were three skills that are introduced in the 80's-100's.
One was Eradicate...a skill that does normal Damage and magic damage
Another called Beserk...
And another I forget the name....
One of the bottom two are a new stun technique...also in aoe style....Will it "replace" deva I doubt it. Deva will always be used.

oooh Berzerk eh? sounds cool. (Hope kinda like Vitality :P)

[lalala321]

how u get 2 swamp of dawn?

[Flyff]

No there's another question. It's not "will there be a skill that replaces deva?" it's "if there is, then will we get the change of a free stat reset?". Players such as I don't use cash shop items and it wouldn't be fair on people who also do not use cash items. It will be a LONG time before 120 so we wouldn't have known about it. I think that is there is a new skill GMs should give free 10 stat reset scrolls each, if not then it's completely unfair.

Ah.. this thread was kinda dead, but I'll answer that "if". No because free stats is for free stats not skill reset.. If your talking about skill reseting scrolls then no they won't be giving out free reset scrolls for that Unless through a certain event "if" they want. Unfair = marketing purpose.. And don't worry if you can't pay through directly because they did announce an advertisement for Outspark Spark Cash cards coming to a Target near you..

I don't think we'll need extra points. When is the last time a fighter uses skill empower points? Lvl60? Then we just save up til the level we get this new skill, which could be lvl 120 for all we know, and have a multitude of saved of stat points to spend. People complain about fighter's lack of skills after level 60, but I think that will become an advantage in the long run.
