I don't know why they suddenly decided to nerf it >.<
Hopefully they didn't nerf anything else...

I'm not sure! My Phantom Stagony was at level 30 when they added the skill and it has it. It's called Sap Drop.

Alright.
Hopefully the little things didn't get nerfed either

Stats look the same as what I had recorded and what's in the guides, so...hopefully they won't change. >.>;;

I still don't get why they took one point off Ember's damage. Why. One point. Argh. I don't even own one yet and I'm still super annoyed. classified_fu

Well thats good at least.

Yea, I don't understand it either x-x

I know. I feel guilty at the same time, but I'm glad they haven't affected the grunnies yet. Though it appears they can do so whenever they feel like it...

Kinda makes me nervous when they can change things like that at the drop of a hat with no warning whatsoever.

Yeeea. It really sucks that they'll do that..

Same here.. It would nice if they announced changes like that.

If they would say that they're sorry but they had to make changes to X kin for X reasons regarding game balance, then fine. I'd probably still be annoyed, but nowhere near as much. >.>;;

Same here. If they gave us a reason for the change, it would be nice.
Otherwise its just annoying and frustrating. x-x

Have you noticed any changes in any of your other kin or heard anyone else say anything about changes?

Also, have you fought any of the new kin yet? Mine still aren't at a high enough level. xD;;

I haven't seen anything different with the Kin I use, nor have I seen anyone mentioning changes with other Kin.

Yup. I can one shot them with Machia and Riptide, depending on the level they are.
I'm only fighting them in Stage 5 of Zen Temple and running from everything else.
Both Kin have sleep status moves.
