Magic classes rendered useless

Like the title implies, magic classes(usually scholars, ninjas, and SL of course) are close to being useless unless you *donate* for a kiel.. The spell delay is too much. Like 5 secs for 3rd job skills and 3 secs for 2nd job skills. Not only is it degrading on delays there are also magic reflect cards. Ex. Maya and Cat o nine tails. 2 maya's(25%) + 2 cat o nine's(10%)= 60%..

Even if you donate for kiel's.. You can also acquire GTB cards thru donating.

So I suggest the admin to lessen the delay of magic skills of magic classes and nerf magic reflect cards.. say 10% for maya and 5% for cat o nine

BTW this is out of topic but why the hell is there a BBGum in the custom shop?
And there are two Zweihanders in the Special Sword|2H Sword NPC. >_>

I need feedbacks and support from magic class-loving players and of course the GMs, Admins..

Aftercast delay is very annoying on this server. One way around this would be to make a bard slave and have him autofollow you around... but that'd be very annoying

by the way, percentages don't stack like that.

lol I disagree on this topic...Ive seen some Magic Classes that killed me a bunch of times without donation gears, the thing is..they know how to use those classes

sry about the calculations. Altho im pretty confident it goes like this. 25%+22.5%+5%+3.5% or something like that.

Please do generalize. You said "some classes". What about the other magic classes? The only good magic class in this server is ninja. If there's class balance it should apply to every class not only to 2 or 3 classes.

the after delay from 90% of the warlock skills make the class useless. I can't get out White Imprisonment> Soul thingy the majority of the time. I know on kRO it is like the new SG>JT, which is spammable with instant cast.

yes thats true.. not everybody can afford the items in the donation shop.. plss lessen the after cast delay.. its because i really really love using Warlock..

I'm going to agree on the point of decreasing the effect of magic reflect, but not on the idea of reducing after-cast delay. In fact, I would argue that there should be no Kiel at all, because in my opinion it is one card that is over-powered, along with several others that I hold should never even exist on high-rate servers. With the ease of getting these reflecting cards, it's not a matter of difficulty, it's simply a matter of knowing what cards you need and then utilizing them, rendering magic classes practically useless, lest they spam AoE everywhere. But even then, mdef is not difficult to get either, and with the extra slots in armors, it becomes even more unfair.
