Please balance combat!!!!

Right now combat is really unbalanced

Melee is good but archery and mainly magic are bad.

If you look into the #player-milestones you are going to see mainly Medusa get killed.
That is because Medusa is weak? No!
That is because right now, most of players realized that with magic and archery isnt worth to kill bosses, and they are focusing on melee.

I tried to kill chimera 3 times with my main 100 magic (Godly staff and best armor is slot for magic) and my 2 alts with 90 magic.
First time i barely killed it, the other 2 tries i died in every one of the 3 accounts, including my main that was the first to die.

But if you have 3 melee alts you can easily kill almost every boss or even solo them with 1 good melee stats account.

The only boss weak to magic uses melee attack that is so powerfull against magic and we cant even try to use melee armors to counter it because it debuffs our accuracy and dmg so hard.

While in melee you have 2 bosses that uses melee as attack style and are weak to melee too
You also have Hades that is weak to stab and uses magic, but you can counter it using magic armor cause it doesnt gives melee debuffs
Medusa is easy too because it is weak to melee and uses archery, and melee armors gives good archery defense bonuses.

My suggestion is to:

• Add new armors to mages and archery like titanium armors. (The best magic armor is lvl 50)

• Rebalance armors status:
  Making each type of armor to give Buffs to the main class and debuffs for the other 2 classes.
  That way players would not be able to use melee weapons with magic armors and easily kill Hades for example.

*Either change Devil and Griffin attack styles or weakness (right now both attacks with melee and are weak to melee making it easy to tank and kill they with melee armor and weapons).
Or:
Make 2 new bosses, 1 that attacks with magic and are weak to magic, and the other one that attacks with archery and are weak to archery (But the first option will be better).

i thought magic is bad as well but its just slow at first and gets better with level and gear. Most enemies are 2 shot now and lifesteal want heals enough to fight over a few hours without too much worry for food (still need a bit of food)

Magic sucks right now man, cant kill bosses with it
thats why chimera only have 71 kills
and medusa have almost 10k kills

Their suggestion is definitely more current end-game focused.

No mobs in the game present any challenge in end-game gear. This is more about bosses.

Even still, every 'class' has a need for defense to negate food costs or just survive, and melee has the easiest time against regular mobs in final tier too.

I think this is primarily due to certain mobs dropping certain keys tbh. Not saying mage doesn't have a hard time soloing bosses but at least for current late game, the only keys we're farming is:
Stone(melee)
Burning(mage)
Mountain/Godly(archery)
This is simply because these are the mobs that give the most xp/hr for each type
