Skill Changes [Changelog]

[^Lewis^]

For clarity, we will be adding in this post all the skill changes from the previous server that will stay the same on this new one. Hope this helps!
[ General Changes ]

• Heavy/Light/Robe Armor Masteries:
  Based on only 3 Armor Masteries, one for each type, this prevents stacking of different kinds (mage/fighter) of armor masteries which would result in insane values arround Cast/Atk Spd.
  The level given of the specific armor mastery is dictated by the pdef given by that specific level.
  Additional (class related) effects (evasion/mp regen/etc...) from the mastery are obtained from extra secondary passive skills (example: "Light Armor Evasion Mastery").
• Recharge:
  Cast restrictions: Cannot be casted on a class that has recharge skill learnt.
• Resurrection:
  All resurrection skills (scrolls included) have at least a 40% exp recovery and builds up by +5% each level (resurrection lv9 is 90%), WIT will modify this value up/down and can reach 100% exp recovery
• Prophecies:
  Only able to cast on party members
• Raid Bosses:
  Now all Raid Bosses have 60% increased resistance vs 2h swords and 2h blunts and are immune to Stigma. (Destroyers still do more damage than everyone else)

[ Mana Burners ]
Mana Burn and Mana Storm now cannot critical hit and the mp cost is increased by 35% on every lvl and enchant route. Taking into account the amount of buffs that decrease MP consumption, we feel this is a fair value to keep mana burns in check and make it more of an important decision when to use, punishing those who spam it without thought.

• We have removed the ability for Dagger blows to FULL-LETHAL (HP lethal). They will still be able to HALF-LETHAL (CP lethal).
