#Arcanist Players leave their class

Since Arcanist was revealed, many Arcanist players have left the class because it performs very poorly in PvE dungeons and PvP. For example, it has become very hard to find an Arcanist in dungeons. I think this is the last call to bring Arcanist back.

Many of the new skills are almost useless in both PvE and PvP and need to be reworked. Endgame PvE dungeon content feels like it is balanced around using level 50 debuffs, which is very disappointing and annoying gameplay.

Since the Arcanist was revealed, the Elementor Arcanist is even worse than before in PvP, mainly because of new skills that come from others class like tenacity, CC immunity for the whole team for 5 seconds, resist magic and resistance to the elements for the a whole team and and similar mechanics.

News arcanist skills was designed for a game like league of legend not for flyff.

Shoutout to the Mentalist, who is experiencing the same issues in PvP.

Please give some love to arcanist and mentalist aswell peepolove

State of the game is bad even with balance changes. There is nothing new to do except for Ankou. All classes playercount are dropping, not just Arcanist. U just notice Arcanist more because there were not many of them on Tote in the first place, and they are preferred to do the only new content in the game.

They should stop giving us 50 useless skills with long CD/ target cap. We still need to use almost all old Elementor skill and need to use on top some new skills for reaching max dps or for best teamsolution.

Some skills are still bugged since release of them. We need alot more skillponits for all that skills + mastery.

Our chance to get the skillbonus we want is very low. We need hundreds of bonus scroll.

We need 2 statpages to play that game efficient.
Lvling with full int in eillun, no chance... not even cause they are doing alot dmg, with that posibug/rubberband u die instantly!

We need to use always tons of debuffs and some of them have a really bad duration like the lvl 40 element debuff.
They run only 4 seconds 👍
We cant even use our full rotation before they run out.

I stopped lvling with lvl 175 since gala changed anything on mainteance that proc alot of rubberbands.
The mages, mostly Arcas losing the fun of that game from day to day!

And last what i already said 2-3 times we are still the 2h weapon mage class.
But maybe anyone can explain me why arcas havent mostly the Lead for max dps?
Its cause our nice debuffs i know keks
But we also benefit from it.

MAKE ARCA GREAT AGAIN keksip

Or after FWC there will be alot less Arcas on each server!!!

Arcanist doesn't make much business money. Won't receive love at all because of greed.

Arcanist is this expansion's Jester.

Agree. I have reroll a knight for tank because arcanist is boring only debuff and aoe is lower dps than other at equivalent gear.

I reckon spending most of your time spamming level 50 debuff skills in 160+ dungeons must not be enjoyable

Aoe of arca and menta is about the same pre kaillun patch but arca now feels like it's been downgraded to a mentalist personal debuffer and not a lot of players want that. At least with blade's storm slash debuff, everybody benefits from it as you can see in the dps chart (1v1) unlike with arca debuffs where only the mentalist benefits the most from it. Bad design imo because there are clear rivalries in this game; arca vs menta, yj vs ranger, bp vs knight dps. They shouda just gave yj and menta some kind of unique buff/debuffs that would make teams seek them more instead of giga buffing them over their rival classes just because they were some of the least popular ones.

3rd job should have new stronger spammable aoe skill. Some class 3rd job really feels like 2.5nd job

The person who worked on creating the Arca skills was in another dimension... none of the skills are good.

just bring back OG lightning storm stomp from 3rd class in og fyff, that was great in tras lol....

Also, i am coming back after a long break. Because of all these issues and others.

What characters seem to be best for pve/pvp and are enjoyable to more of an extent

I should probably make an analysis on skill usage instead of optimizing everything because not enough debuff time.

I wished Acranist had quirks for elementor or magician like.. Extending Ice Missile range by 5 and debuff time extended by 5 seconds.

Quirky but seems fun.
I dont want to leave yet although I am 🤣

It’s sad. I spent 25b during fwc to make an arca. Just to be living the life till all the nerfs and buffs to ankou came along to just die a billion times. Honestly can’t say it’s all classes cause rm and blade aoe I have zero issues and a stutter here and there with my ranger but that’s a whole different level of mess there. The only option ya have is to level with a healer 24/7 cause 51k hp still ain’t enough to counter the nonsense. And with healer that’s also another mess to deal with so literally just be doing dailies a wild run or 3 and play cod 😔

# winter pine What do u think about new changes guys ?

didnt test hellfire till now but they should fixed it.
the new thunderstrike makes alot of fun while pulling. on good spots u can pull alot and fast with the CD reduced masterie. i lack only on skillpoints 🙁 and dont wanna use again a 5th reskill... they are expensive and it would be nice to get 1-2 for free.
also i cant test the new earthen fortitude -inc dmg buff. cause no points^^. i heard the basetime is a bit short but idk.

edit did a quicktest on a giant and hellfire did dmg while shade´s support

The new earthen firtitude is good but most useless in dungeons that sad cuz u cannot petrifys mobs or monument in dungeons .... and i think earthen firtitude need buff for the duration 10sec to low in my opinion / so sorry but Gust stay useless skills for me they have to rework it / thunder strike they just add more dmg / bounce i dont know if people will play the skill cuz he did less dmg than lightning storm

I agree with the earth debuffs.. i like earth debuffs they help me survive both near and far

thunder strike is now fun in pve i guess, and that's all

rest is non existent

-infusion timer+1s scaling and buff 0.5% atk is a joke
-any changes regarding hellfire and roots are useless as long as it's not targetted or skillshot, and hellfire dmg still sucks
-ice shard still can't be manually canceled, idk what's going on in their minds, looks like they gonna reduce its cooldown every patch until it's spammable
-buffs have zero timer scaling, way too short to be useful or they're locked to skills like roots

poslag and bilion unfixed issues is still out there

the only real noticable buff is the nerf to pvp rangers
