some guy in some thread said that they would disable leeching in the next patch. Is this true? where could i find the proof? Also would this go for all leeching like bf as well as harps, newts, skeles, etc? btw, you lost the game

Nexon is most likely changing the accuracy formulafor PG, so that you actually need accuracy to hit with PG.

Well not really. The use of a PG mule is going to be completely useless. PG will now be based on the accuracy of the character, so ouch.

So they are only changing power guards effects? and nothing to do with archmage/bishop leeching?

leeching is impossible to patch... the only way to fix leeching is to either destroy the whole partying ability OR strictly make a new rule on leeching and banning people for it

No patch will stop leeching. If you patch pg, you basically ruin the skill. Believing these rumors only make it more plausible.

They MIGHT put an acc formula on PG. Now that may make it a bit... irritating for 3x~6x BF leechers. But those lvs aren't too difficult. As to the regular type of leeching (Spamming Gene/Blizz/Met) It'll NEVER get patched. If they do they're gonna screw over many chars, mostly party cleric, and it'll completely turn over the party system.

I'm sure that party experience wont affect leeching, and only will continue to ruin the party system. They got the first attempt wrong, who's to say this one will last?

They are going to re-make the exp from party kills eventually, this won`t get rid of the leechers but it will slow it down alot, i think they are going to make it based on many things. But ive only heard of this. but i`m pretty sure they`ve done it in KMS or something

Leeching won't really die.... will it? I'm pretty sure mages will still be in business. But no more for boss leeching. :c *Out of business* Rofl. Oh well. I sucked at BFing.
