Tricky thing here is, mage party can have 4x novas, witch makes all complicated. Staff attacks seems good to me. But usually, 6 flame 1 light should more or less 1 shot mage party with full MP/hp build, witch they dont. but once again, if that happens, nova party would become even more dumb. Also another thing that makes balance easy to make, the difference between lowest and highest you can hit it soo large. so either you hit 1.1k with 70 nova, or 1.7k. witch makes it all weird.

PS. I actually am able to vs almost all classes already. only one I can't vs is warrior. But I never been able to vs warrior on any server.

Mages aren't made to be tanking vs, and I still manage to win while tanking man. Also don't forget how hard mages hit on priest. I can duo mage pretty much any priest on the server, if the 2 mages are good enough to know how to combo.

Your the one who told about resistance and said that mages should hit higher and should not loose duels when opponent is 50% hp down. However, mage ain't a class to play solo. Any decent mage know that, you'll rarely see a mage in any KO who goes on his own and only attack. Its either they support/TP their team with shield/mace and switch to staff to stun/slow priests. or they go in mage party, because a single mage, in lets say a warrior party, will be the easy target, since healing a mage is not like healing a warrior, doesnt take the same skills.

Dude I'm in a mage clan myself, I know better then anyone how mage clan works, mages are usually good in early server, when everyone has weak gear, then once warrior gets better gear, there is no way to bomb them, exept if you bomb them by surprise, specially if its a 20xx server. After the server is couple weeks old, mages usually do mage party vs mage party only. You can't compare 72 servers to 83/85 servers neither. And why you bring Blink in here lol, blink in mage party is usually only used by commander to escape when the bomb fail and it can't be coded that way in a 12xx server. If you really want to make a mage party, look how priests heal their mages, because its not that simple.

PS. Why do you think mage clans usually play on new and crowded server ? Cause everyone has low gear cap, and being in mage clan is fun mostly when there is other mage clan to go against. A single mage clan on a "dead" server is never a good idea, since they only target for you, so you have no chance to bomb them by surprise.

Btw, those are just my point of view, nothing against you cratos, but 15xx+ servers are lot different then 12xx. And let me know how the mage party will have successed after doing it, im kinda curious.

By "Decent" mage, I meant skilled/experienced/good mage, not the skill :p Anyway. I agree on boosting mages, but it is kinda scary that it would make mages overpower if its played well, witch mostly no mages in Titan don't even know how to play proper mage. Mage is not meant to tank like warriors and do much damage. The problem with mage right now in my opinion are the following :
1. Useless class as long as you don't have a fully geared mage
2. Possible to have 80/70 build, with blink and constant 4 novas
3. novas and skills damage range is too high

@ElCrat0s

as you can see in this topic

We did increase most of the Mage spells already!
Manes and all the 75-85 skills like incineration, igzination and all the deadly skills.

It would be possible to reduce resist but the effect isnt as big as you might think
