[C9] Webzen Note – Battle Maiden Reworked

Webzen Note

Greetings C9 Actionists,

 

Battle Maiden has been known as one of the strongest classes who can perform powerful attacks. However, many Glenheim actionists have yet felt likes and dislikes with Battle Maiden as she lacks dynamic skill combos and survivability.

So, for this time, our developers have decided to renew this glamorous class for actionists who want to enjoy more stunning and thrilling action!

 

Some changes would also affect Novice Mystic and Elite Mystic classes. Check out the changes.
