I was wondering, will Bishops become unwanted in Boss runs and training parties?, due to the addition of Battlemages, Aura Party Buffs? Bishops skills are already getting replaced with NX items, for example: rez = wheel of destiny, heal = pets auto potions, ultimate = other mages have much stronger versions of it etc. Do you think Bishops will still be wanted? and why? Thanks =)

Lol? Hater? But seriously speaking.. would you rather spend eh, lets say 5k nx or just get a bishop for free? I have been invited to over100 boss runs. And people find bishops very useful. And now the ultimate. NOBODY invites A/ms to come on boss runs unless they have connections, because they are basically useless, nobody wants mages to use their ultimates because it makes ppl lag and d/c. And for pots, would u rather spend 10mil on pots and All cures or just get a bishop? Its pretty obvious..

resurrect is more reliable, pet auto pot sometimes glitches + there's the fact that it's losing mesos, their ultimate atm is the most powerful on skeles+ gallos (and no one knows when balance patch will come out, could be in 1-2 years), sometimes hard to hit that un-dispel button, bishops can dispel wep cancl/magic cancl on monsters. Everything you said basically costs more than a bishop, and bishops generally work better. And stop either blabbing about OTHER threads OR blabbing about korean server from spadow. you don't even know when it will come out. how long have we been waiting for the 'all mighty balance patch'? yeah.

I think Bishops are still wanted because not ALL people have NX. Although I buy NX sometimes I never use it on Wheel of Destiny, Pet Auto Pot, etc.

Battles mages will take up most of the low lvl bishops but the higher lvls since they also have ressurect and they have power booster if I remember correctly

[/quote] Well, you probably didn't go on some good zak runs yet, cause every good run I've been on had a mage/bishop using ultimates at arms, nobody lags, nobody dcs... Obivously it's normally the bishop that does it, so you don't have to invite a mage, but still... @TS: No, bishops will never be useless or replaced, they are the best support class in the game, and it's not gonna change anytime soon...
