CBT2 Week 2 Developer Q&A

Irisviel has translated another one of CBT2's developer Q&As. You know how everyone complained about the Ranger's wolf form and the tank classes' vulnerability to kiting? Well NCsoft's Studio 5 (Aion Team) listens to its testers.

Thnks for the notice.

The changes done in Gladiators and Assasins make them more interestin to me. They will be really cool ^^

Its very good to know that AionTeam is listening the beta testers and doing changes as good as they can

Its really nice to see developers working on game even during betas, instead of rushing into launching a buggy and unbalanced game, i hope that every class its going to be VERY strong on their main aspect compared to other classes.

Well basically Gladiators had more DPS than the Assassin's for example. They had to be tweaked.

I agree, that's the image I get when I think of an assassin in a mmorpg, so I have to admit that it does worry me a bit that they are getting even stronger, especially after seeing all those pvp clips out there, such as the one where the Elyos Gladiator got destroyed several times in a row by an Asmodian assassin.

But of course, this could all be because of difference in equips, player skills and so on, we'll just have to wait and see.

Doesn't look like it. Gladiators earned a speed boost skill and a couple of ranged attacks...
