Would you want to make Buccaneers even cooler?

    Buccaneer
    I know over the years, Brawlers have been struggling to the top with a lot of obstacles and Maplelegends has compensated a bit for that struggle. But I believe there is a little more that you can do, that is still in the realm of possibility and keeping classes balanced to add onto Buccaneers making them an even cooler class. Take Bishop for instance, they are the most overpowered class in the game, they have that aspect that makes them cool, and you guys recently just buffed ice/lightning mages to make them even better. Don't forget about Nightlords and Dark knights ability to destroy everything in their paths also. Basically what I'm saying is that besides Paladins and beginners, Buccaneers are the most underwhelming class besides them having one mediocre mob skill (Dragon Strike) and demolition. I would really like to speak on behalf of all the Buccaneers and say that being able to use all attack skills in Transformation would drastically increase the enjoyment and popularity of playing Buccaneer. Now I am aware that server version restrictions are holding up this being possible, but there has to be a way around it, and I hope this thread gets enough attention to make the Maplelegends staff very aware of this issue. Please, for the sake of fairness of all classes to maintain the equalibrium, and bringing more popularity to the server make this small adjustment so that Buccaneers may use all attacks in both forms; (Transformation) and (Super Transformation). Thank you

    SaiyanGodSaiyanGod Uhm not to be blunt but you can't really have other skills @ 3rd in v.62 since its just how the classes are made.

    Paladins and underwhelming ain't gonna go in one sentence since they've been buffed quite alot way earlier.
    That energy orb and snatch are there to be used??

    Energy orb damage gets halved with ever bounce off of a monster it hits, resulting the 3rd hit being like 300 dmg at level 140 and whats the point in snatch if you cant use any other skill in transformation besides energy blast?

    Sounds broken and not in a good way. Devs might need to look into fixing energy orb.

    I think all of the active Buccs that play can agree when I say we aren't 100% satisfied with the gameplay, but we're satisfied enough just because there's so few active Buccs out there maybe it makes up for it? Not sure how to put it really. This is an emotional topic where a handful of other players I know along with myself just want to whine and cry to you, in hopes that maybe we can use all of our skills in transform maybe one day.

    When I first made my Marauder I was a fool that assumed that I would be able to use my skills in transform. Everything else in the server was flowing so perfectly as if nothing could make me unhappy, until I hit 3rd job and tried using Corkscrew Blow in transform. That's when it hit me: I'll have to keep leveling and just hope that one day Kim will answer the prayers of all active Buccs and figure out a way to let us use all of our skills in transform. Playing a Bucc becomes a completely different type of game after that, and I really look forward to it. There's only so many additions you can make to a private server that is supposed to stick to its nostalgic roots, and I really think that this is one of those changes that is for the best. Buccs were meant to be played this way.

    The Buccaneer that GMS first released was "cucked", as my friend Mark would say. It didn't take long for Neckson to realize that transform was just an unfun skill to use in general, when it was supposed to be kind of what a Bucc revolves around; transforming and being badass and and fast as shit with that speed/jump boost. Mark originally wasn't going to play a Bucc after I told him I couldn't use my skills in transform but now he's almost a Bucc and has the same high hopes as me. It would really be something to wake up one day to a new patch that gave us this new game.

    If you're a Bucc and feel the same way then you need to speak up! Kim, there's only one thing I've ever wanted to whine to you about and it's this. I appreciate everything you do for this server and I'm surprised I've enjoyed it enough to play this long. Thanks so much.

    Once again, its not about we don't want give buccs transformation skills, its that its currently not possible within the v62 client since Neckson never made animation for it in client to support it until later versions.
