    Would there be any plans to adjust pianus WC and MC cooldowns?

    it’s similar to the scarga and (previous patch?) HT heads issue before

    WC will activate
    Then MC activates while WC is still on
    So MC has no chance to activate after WC finishes.
    A few seconds on, WC happens

    Of course the opposite happens too which is nice, but a bit of alternating would seem more... normal?

    so we get long delays where the majority melee attackers sit around. And the poor mage chain lightnings alone (and even whites)

    I’m sure just messing around with the cooldowns would fix this?

    I think it’s not really a problem during normal pianus since people just leave map and wait. But during boss rush it’s... a bit frustrating to get 5 WC in a row.

    Oh man, the number of times it was off WC for 0.5 seconds is frustratingly hilarious.

    weapon cancels are the only thing keeping mages relevant

    Agree that it's a bit of an issue now but I suppose this is also the WC thing that they are busy fixing and didn't get around to last patch?

    back in the original days, it's super common to get b2b cancels on pianus since it's part of it's mechanics and speciality (where majority of the time, left dispel and right wc). Remember that this is an old boss from the 3rd job era, which was meant to be challenging as at the time zakum was the final boss. I'm not sure if changes were made to Pianus in this server but it feels so with dispel being map wide instead of proximity and from right pianus instead of left.

    HT previous patch had this issue with B2B cancels. So I assume the coding would be similar by adjusting the skill cooldowns? Just seems like sth that can extend boss rush time a tad excessively for no reason
