guess you can not read... your impression is somewhat missing a few nuts & bolts.

Sub-proficiencies came about because melee classes need a bit more oomph when it comes to certain areas.

Glyphs are just consumables... and even if I lived next door to the server... I would not even waste
my time glyphing... I could be out there finding that item

Ok so your plan is to make classes that are awesome at going hybrid but not that awesome at playing melee better as melee classes? The problem for me is that this buff is also given to the hybs which would now go form awesome to even more awesome so it would still be the excact same inbalance. But the game would be much easier.

Iso your input

Give this another go...
Still trying to crunch the idea a bit more...

Thanks for the explanation... But... how easy is it for a new person with no funds?
How easy is a melee character to well items successfully @ level40+?



I was going to number each point that was made in your comments (10)... thing is, it is not a debate, and I do not want to ramble about technical issues that some slashers have when playing in catacombs... whether or not they have a 9 month old computer that is worth over $3500... or packet transfer from server to user PC when DISTANCE is a factor in delaying items appearing or when actions are performed.

Let us go back to basics... it is Version 1.15... forget unspawnables etc
Which character class can effectively do the following without using Glyphs...
... Solo 1-71? ... ... ... ... #1 Caster ... #2 Hybrid (expensive)
... Well @ level 64 with 99% success rate? ... ... ... ... #1 Caster ... #2 Hybrid (sometimes)
... Which Class is always welcomed in a catacomb group?... #1 Caster (Healer)... #2 Hybrid (Healer)
... ... Which character class can do all of the above without using GLYPHS?... #1 Caster...

4x Caster
3x Hybrid
0x Melee

Where is the balance? ...

The 15% was an idea... at least I said to Cap it... promote group play?... This is how I see Ladder Slasher now.. and it is from comments throughout the LS forum.

1... MQ ... MQ ... MQ... that is right... this game is about Master Quests...
... Based on this... people go Catacomb to climb up fast to do an MQ... repeat/recycle
2... See #1

Honestly... it is not about Master Quests to me... it is about making my character the best character I can... by means this game provides.
Grind & Find to upgrade... not use an item that disappears after use

unlockable proficiency?

i like

Edit : maybe like this

every 5 ranks on the proficiency's used now you gain that effect

+5 sword = % Power Shot
+5 Axe = % Critical Flux
Etc Etc

can even add for fishing and healing charms

also the Bonus gained from this will work with all items - maybe?
