New Vocational Changes

So, Cip has announced a new vocational system in which it looks like sorcs are going to go back to being OP while everyone else sucks.

Knights
Druids
Sorcs
Pallies

Read up and post your thoughts here (and there if you feel like it).
Personally, I think that NOPE NOPE NOPE NOPE NOPE NOPE NOPE NOPE NOPE NOPE NOPE NOPE.

I think it's something that should have been done awhile ago

everything is "okay", I'm just unsure if I like or dislike the SD being sorcerer only :/

Seems fine, archer will become more deadly : D.

Omfg... This is 90% the vocation system I've done at EldinWorld im working on...
Sick... Whooot ?! XD Im so mind-fucked.

Ps: Someone on my Skype that I've spoken about this to must be CIP.

Well as of right now there's no plus to making a sorcerer. This will add that back into the game

What the fuuu..k?? Sorcerer will be something like ONE UE THOUSAND KILL NO CHEAT BUT C-I-P.

Hopefully this can do something about teamwork and getting a group of 4 in which all have their part.

Only thing that seems interesting from cipsoft in a long time

But the thing is that they're nerfing everyone except sorcs who could probably just run around killing people with e-rings and sds.

This definitely should have been done ages ago.

the only thing that came to my mind is that only sorcerers will receive the best loot from boss kills (that chest loot thing) now :/ since druids and pallys will not be able to use sd anymore

If that turns out to be the only issue then they can easily patch that and make the loot system consider the vocation and multiply the damage by a factor depending on that.

I really like the new idea, you cannot judge too much yet as you do not know how the new spells are going to be or the summon system, but I really like the idea of druids using summons.

Dislike paladins, the rest is only for the better.

Cipsoft is still taking ideas they find from Open-Tibia and applying them in their own way to Tibia, that is all.... The problem is that they are never gonna have it right, they did before and now that game is just too far off base...

I like all these psychic people who can already tell which vocation becomes OP blabla
Please teach me

Going by just the basic definition, yeah sorcerer even says it is better, simply because they have two vocations with weak offense, one with average, and then sorcerer has best. That doesn't make it the best vocation, however in a fight it makes it sound like they would own for pvp, but that's just the basic vocation. If you can't afford the premium for the promotion then sorry about your luck, but the promotion choices are where it is now an improvement. Players now can choose whether they would like to improve on their vocations strengths or its weaknesses. Not all of the vocations, granted, like the pally's promotions are about whether you want to become deadly with one target, or strong against many targets I would assume the way they have it's options for promotion. Just have to take a look at it for what it is, it's an idea, a concept, they haven't made this at all yet, and can change something about it before anyone even gets to try it out.

Boss loot is already factored by different types of involvement; damage dealt, damage taken, and healing of other players.
Hopefully they'll expand on that when the vocation changes come out.

And yes, I'm definitely excited by the summon system. Hopefully they'll finally travel on all floors. Hopefully they'll give full EXP to the summoner too.
This 2015 year should be incredibly exciting.

I'm thinking which Cip are planning something like pet for the new summon system.
I like the new concept of changes and like also the new "promotion", since this was necessary a long time ago already.

If they wanna make summons for druids only they should upgrade summons, monks, ds and fe were usefull like 7 years ago ;p
