Hello

can you check the mana usage for TDB? it seems to consume mana twice once when u press the button and once
when u hit the mob.

u can hit 4-5 times with the lvl 32 mana pool this is barely dmg to take a pt mob to half health.

not sure if mana use goes up as tdb levels up but it seems a bit much.

Standard always was taking mana only when charging TDB, not when you hit.

But likely this is meant to screw you up same way like the 10k TM fee.

Have either of you ever played Mir?

TDB has always taken MP from charge and attack.

the Mana usage is fine.. if you spam SFB it uses a lot of mana. if you spam spirit shot uses a lot of mana. if you spam thunderbolt it uses a lot of mana if you constantly use double slash it uses a lot of mana..

Why do warrior's seem to think they are being hard done by?

lol sorry i never played a warrior on mir... it wasnt a complaint. thought it might have been a bug

if its working as intended then fair play...

I doubt very much you were double charged mana on euro (had warr lev46 there and say 'doubt' because I wouldn't stake my life on it but otherwise am pretty sure), didn't play warr on usa but I remember complaints about that and I think it got fixed in the end to draw just single charge? Also remember problems (maybe on ace?) when you couldn't double TDB like you could on euro?

Simple commonsense, like what you would normally expect (given its not rl but a game and it can be implemented whichever way) I don't see why mana should be used twice. If you want it to use more mp, just raise the charging amount.

... You were double charged on Euro.

Once for cast, once for use. This is due to how ridiculously overpowered this spell is in the game once level 3.

Worthing is depressing.
On euro (i know this isnt euro) My Brother at 40 used like 4L HP bunnies, res was MP & garuntee'ed he'd run out of MP before HP. At higher levels warriors use equal mp to wizzies in my opinion

yea this was on ace. if you hit the button instead of hold it it becomes less mp hungry because it can charge time and time again without releasing its charge.

OK I believe you then. As for orig poster fears, your mana pool will soon get large enough that it won't make as large a dent into it using this skill even if the mana use goes up a little (along with the damage it does) with skill level.

Given the amount of pots you can carry on a warrior it seems fine, it is a cash burner but the damage is ridiculous (in standard dc gear if I get a skele in PSC yellow my TDB can hit it for half its life due to the amplifier)
