Both these screenshots illustrate the inadequate range a 1-handed paladin has with ACB. This range is so short that it makes using ACB at Time Temple quite ridiculous. The short range was livable previously because Skeles/Himes are much smaller. But with new high level monsters, the Range doesnt work and quite frankly, it needs a mandatory update from Nexon. Not being able to train fairly with our main attack makes our class a laughing stock of the entire MS community. And until this is fixed (among some other bugs). Nobody should be running to the Paladin bandwagon. link link

I don't quite understand what it is with you and using acb at time temple! It's built for the vastly more efficient use of HH. Anyway, I'm fine with the range of ACB with 1h and with sufficient practice I managed to kill efficiently at the lower level guardians without having to take touch damage so often.

ABC>>>>>>>>>>>>>Heavens Hammer At lower levels, you look at heavens hammer and say WOW, im getting a ton of experience. But as someone else pointed out in another post, using heavens hammer as your primary training method causes experience gain to Platau....ie you'll never get over a certain amount of experience regardless of equips or level. This means, at high levels (like 170), you are getting lvl 150 experience gain instead of 170 experience gain.

yes i would love to have acb work with COGs. BUT it dosent work that way. = so i HAVE to resort to HH XD. even with it its good EXP for soloing no matter what lvl.7~9% a hour at COGs im not complainning for soloing. its way better then 3~5% a hour at skele >_>.

For ACB not to reach,...is one thing. Coupled with have to kill neutral monsters with a 50% dmg deficit it really hurts, it is really funfair, and it just doesn't make sense. Why do I want to be getting the same experience gain as some lvl 140 who just maxed HH? It defeats the purpose of leveling.

I don't find it unfair. Did you know what you were getting into when going into 1-H? "Short Range" And now you want more range just because of some monsters you can't hit efficiently?

XD

If brandish is a heros main move and it has a fixed range, why not acb?

ACB's animation is like a regular swing. He's basically asking for longer range for 1-H. By the way, I'm not asking for comparisons to Heroes. This is about Paladins.

I'm sorry but for heros I guess 2h is already unbalanced, their main move is fixed range. Yes I'm talking about paladins I'm giving an example of a class that got their move. But paladins need that range, acb is their MAIN MOVE.
