I hate the update completely. The two characters I play most are my marksman and my conjurer, both level 50. Marksman now is so static, it is just plain boring. Movement is what made Regnum fun, but now I'm afraid to even twitch, or be penalized with a canceled spell or get another 3 second delay before I can shoot again. My support conjurer is far harder to play now (as if we didn't already have too few conjurers playing support). Static play, canceled heal spells, constantly trying to stay out of combat mode, etc.

Actions speak louder than words. In the last week, including a 4-day weekend, I have been logged into Regnum a total of about 30 minutes. This is because of the simple fact that Regnum is no longer enjoyable to play.

I have to agree with octopus. I was having a blast on my marksman until the update then everything came to a screeching halt. I grinded a barb to lvl 50 having to rest after every 4th or 5th mob and I'll be damned if I'll do that again. So until that character can get some fluidity again I'll but him firmly onto the back burner.

The barb is ok. Though I am still experiencing quite a bit of position lag.

I actually managed to grind a bit on my hunter and not die instantly

There are parts I like, and parts I don't like. The massive pause before this first hit annoys the hell out of me. The changes to hit calculation and spell casting (ie it starting on the client and being validated later) I like. The rest, I'm kind of ambivalent about – although I'm leaning towards disliking the changes to base damage and berserk effect to barbarians. Now instead of being at a slight disadvantage using berserk (honestly, it was comparatively slight), we're now at a massive distadvantage to not use it, and this disrupts our ability to use instance casts, which.... Well Znurre explained it perfectly with a video.

Although I think the proof is in that I'm far more likely to yell at my computer and log off, and go play FPSes until the red rage dies down a bit, than I was before this update. I'm really hoping that the tech update is going to be worth it, because frankly I love the RO community, though I may not hold my breath.

I like it on my barb, lock is good too, I can agree with the support conjurers it sucks too, but so does it on my lock sometimes, moving to cancel a spell really sucks, I want to hold down a button before I should cancel spellcasting by moving, same with attacking

I only have this marksman (at 50 that is) so I've basically stopped playing RO too. Now I only check in on the forums, with decreasing frequency, to see if there has been any change for the better. (fat chance, eh?)

It was getting increasingly bad (during the last six months or so) even before 1.0.8, but now all I feel when trying to find something useful to do in a fight, is frustration. Needless to say, that is not something I'm willing to neither pay a penny for, nor spend time on. There are plenty of other pastimes to pick from.

Nils is parked, unskilled, at Hop. (Last time I logged in I only realised I needed a serious reskill; just couldn't think of any setup that might work.) I hate grinding intensely, so me dragging another class to 50 simply won't happen.

The problem isn't working a setup out, really I still find marksman an easy class, but it's just plain boring, for me now.
