the changes to Flex Blow makes the Fortune seeker extremely mobile. However, no AoE is a very confusing change because the skill power was left the same as the AoE version of the skill.
The skill should have gotten this teleport dmg aspect, but also retained the small AoE pattern.
There is a reason why no one plays othel, and its purely because of no AoE. All other dd's have AoE that can gain xp and adena at 2-3x the rate of an othel stuck in single target land.
The question NCsoft should answer is why do the skills Barrage of Nails and Wild Plunder NOT follow the blow formula like Flex blow did last update for it's AoE damage calculation. These 2 skills follow the same formula as a Yul, where P Atk crit dmg do NOT affect their damage output. Considering 75% of a dagger's passive boosts come from P Atk Crit Damage, this seems like a massive oversight and a bug.
Wild plunder specifically was the exact same skill as Flex Blow last update, except it did 1/10th the damage. This makes 0 sense.
If these 2 skills used the blow formula, dagger would be fixed big time.
Othel is a dead class and ncsoft don't care to fix it. Detrhone alone allows AoE DD's to xp 2-3x as fast. The dev's are clueless.
