Is the new class going to make regular bandits obsolete? From the looks of it, it's a bandit. With flashier skills, two daggers, and a isolated CS inventory.

Does it really matter? The earliest we'll see them is Christmas '10. By that time you'll have either quit, or gotten shadower (and any 4th job is powerful enough for people to enjoy)

Dual Blade > Bandit. Yes. Dual Blade is going to have AoE skills at 4th job.

It's depends on how the dual blade class works. Normal bandits are more of a stationary/rapid hitting class, so would the new dual blade class be more manuverable? It might also be a mobbing class with less damage, seeing that AoE skill in the screens. If my description of bandits is wrong, correct me. edit: also think of what all present rouge classes lack, what kind of attacks/skills don't they have that other classes have? The dual blade class might fill in those spaces.

Just because they have AoE doesnt mean it's a powerful AoE. In the picture, for one, the person did not show any damage done nor did he get any exp... Meaning the attack was probably crap. A good portion of you are never going to reach 120 and be remotely able to compare yourself to a shadower. Secondly, They have 6 advancements, and are considered an adventurer, adventurers tend to be balanced, eh?

I really hope Shads are still stronger, and have cooler skills... i just spent all my money trying to make a shad and now this comes along... they could have at least made it a choice for dual blade or dagger, like 1h vs 2h warriors? that'd be smart, wouldn't it?

even if its flashy now, i think like evan, and EVERY other class , skills will be over used ///seen so nothing wrong bandits ... okay blades got this but i mean its just new and nexon WILL have flaws but im kinda sick of everyone saying that no one will play shads cus people will always get bored of a class sooner or later and nexon will always try or atempt to balance.. so pls..Dont Cry? =.="

[quote] Kithanne : can they do 800k damage with just 1 skill? most likely not [/quote] Win :3 Most likely, the AoE is either a low damage skill, a condition skill. IE: Stuns all 15 monsters on screen, or something like that

I mean, the bandits have a whole arsenal of flashy skills.. It's gonna be hard to top. Like every other class, this Dual Blade class is gonna have it's pros and cons. EDIT- D: just saw a video of SS's of the new class... Its like a mixture of dits and arans! Agh, we'll just have to wait and see.
