- RE-UPLOADED WITH CORRECTIONS: Corrected the gunlancer stuff.
The only two front attacking classes in the game have been struggling with the new content. So did the patch note help them out? I breakdown the patch notes for both the classes.

Lol man, don't worry your head about the blue lancers.. we have been fitting stuff inside bashwindow for ages. Basically leapattack=>thunderbolt or leapattack=>shieldcharge with the 2 fillerskills sprinked in afterwards as supplemental damage (though shieldshock is only used in raidgates where counters are not needed). Shieldbash is short enough that it is available every bash, shieldshock can be too depending on CD tripod though DUF is mandatory instead of shieldshock in most gates. Them moving the range increase from the lvl 10 tripod into the base skill of bash also means we can drop it to lvl 7 and take up both our "filler" dps skills to lvl 12.
For Akkan G2 and his laser the only safe "front attack" is from about 40 degrees to the side standing a few steps out and using a skill with enough range to reach it. Sadly for ragehammer builds Earth Eater is typically the only one you have that fits the bill however if anyone plays GT they might have Earthwave in the build too and I think hypergravity mode should be able to reach with the aoe from the autoattacks. Red gunlancer however is able to fire surgecannon and/or gunlance shot and finish with charged stinger once the laser ends so basically a full rotation, in the current western release we usually want to bash first to proc "ready attack" but with this pattern it's not really practical unless you hug Akkans leg to the side and spacebar back into position.
About the metergain buff to GL, Destro (and wheelchair arty when they use the shieldskill) I think it's going to be 50% and I don't think it's meant to allow you to facetank entire patterns such as the laser while dpsing, I think it's going to be meant to allow you to eat the stray hit without compromising the raid through metergain as you move outside the edge of the pattern and then resume dpsing. Unfortunately if this proves to be the case GT destroyer would be once again screwed because outside of Akkan there are precious few patterns you can actually unleash bonkmode without having the boss suddenly remember a pressing engagement elsewhere and F-off across the map. I would love it if they gave hypergrav mode a few seconds graceperiod before your bonkspeed resets as that would allow repositioning with roughly a proportional loss in damage relative to the time spent moving instead of hitting... as it is right now interrupting the bonkmode causes you to lose out on a couple of hits beyond that just from taking so long to get back up to speed.
you're mistaken with Red gunlancer as you still need to take bash, shieldbash or shield shock....due to 12% armor debuff synergy. so you still gotta roll with 3 blue skills. and u still gotta have one of those done before or after shout so need to still have that in the rotation
Yeah. I realized that after publishing the video. Im just not good at talking on the fly and doing that live style content that all these other TH-camrs do. I need to jot down my thoughts and go through them before making a video. This video was just an experiment to see how well I would do and I kinda failed at it.
So i main destroyer Nd have 5. The game is just completely designed to have the fron of bosses as the major danger zone and as much as we can dip in and dip out, the agro mechanic and randomised boss patterns makes front attack a huge gamble. And i think we are not rewarded enough for the risk.
The only way to really compensate it is to increase our dmge which negates our downtime/moments where boss 180s because everyone else is standing behind the boss.
Most decent raid runs sit between 65-75% front attack. Where my back attack entropy classes can maintain a 85-90% back attack. But our dmge from the front does not make up for that lower chance.
Also the game incentivises not being hit. And yes we are tankier for a brief second but that doesnt stop me from spamming pots sadly
the change looks good on paper but you will still need a skill with Synergy buff. I think Red GL still got stuck with either shield bash, bash, or shield shock to apply synergy skill.
Don't shout of hatred count as synergy, it's a debuff applied to bosses. I figured now double synergy\party support role became a full time blue lancer thing whereas raw DPS with one synergy became the red lancer thing.
@@gameghiskhan it provide 2 different debuff. As far as i know they do stack. Overall red GL dps did not increase. We mostly got QoL buff from this balance patch. I don't know about single synergy raw DPS thingy but I know War dancer, Soul Fist, and DB also have multiple buff and they running all of them. you can skip -def synergy but I think that will just end up lower overall your and party dps
Haven't played my 1560 destroyer in monthes literally. Maybe i'll give him another shot.
Im going to give him another chance. I saw videos of how much fast perfect swing is and not gonna lie, it got me kinda excited again.
Apologies about the last version of this video. I completely misread the gunlancer patch notes. Corrected it in this version. Deleted the old version.
Thanks to @alekiller7934 for the sauce on earth eater and perfect swing change: th-cam.com/video/E8xN9S2e_zA/w-d-xo.htmlsi=B5NSO6G6s-bDO6hN
Earth eater and perfect swing are now like 30~40% faster wich is really good and Endure Pain has 30 sec coldown plus a lv10 gem and some swiftness on substat the CD will be like 20 seconds with 8 sec duration and only 12 sec downtime, this is way better than our current patch and should close the gap betwen destroyer and non-entropy classes and Gunlancer now is basically the best class period but i really want them to put the sinergy on fire bullet in that way you can play more red skill and counter gunlance wich is my favorite and fun skill to use
This is the link of the video that shows the changes on Destro☝️🤓

Champ right here 👆. Yeah that is really good. I still dont think we will be consistently able to front attack though. Any news on how much of a monster gaunge reduction the Endure pain gives?
gunlancer are freaking awesome bro! but I only play blue thou, blue are awesome!!!! cuz I CAN FACE TANK EVERYTHING, I MEAN EVERYTHING!!!!lmao! bruh you made me wanna go back to lost ark lmfao.
Sorry man! Lol. For your own sanity I would recommend waiting just abit longer before getting back into it. There are some more changes coming that are going to make grind much more tolerable and close the gap between P2W and free to play players.
@@gameghiskhan bro, if I ever come back, I am gonna be taking advantage of pay to win to save time. I don't wanna equate my time playing to a dollar amount...that's why I left. I really don't wanna a game to break me, but what you say is super fun and interesting.
When I play front attack entropy, I get the feeling that SmileGate doesn't play their game. I dropped my destroyer after doing hard akkan. It's a permanant 1615 lopang alt. I kept my gunlancer because I play princess maker.
To me, entropy/raid design is like the biggest problem in the game right now. Front attack classes feels super marginalized. When I talk to people who never play any of those classes, they wonder why people get grabbed by Brelshaza (in G4). It's a whole nother level of bs you have to deal with in a raid as a front attacker and it's super frustrating.
Yeah. I feel ya. There are so many mechs that discourage front attacking outside of just the monster meter stuff that it truly feels like they forgot that there are front attacking classes in the game. I guess they are planning to fix it with Entropy since that is main cause of the majority of the pain we feel as front attackers.
