Here is video proof of the imbalance between the Elin berserker and male Aman berserker's thunder strike range. I used a stationary monster for this test which always respawns in that spot and faces the characters. I used flowers and the meter indicator (seen when targeting the monster) to initially test at the 8 meter range. The Elin can hit at 8 meters, while the Aman needs to move into 6 meters to do damage. The difference is so visibly obvious that I didn't need to use 100% exact measurements to prove there is a significant difference. I am doing this in hopes that EME/bluehole will review this skill and balance it across all the races, and fix any other skill that may be race imbalanced. I am also not sure if this range difference is intended or not, but it goes against what EME stated in an interview about ranges being normalized accross races, its strange how the Elin has a longer reach than the male Aman, and a slightly smaller hitbox aswell.

and this video is a pure animation demonstration, while backed into a wall. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m35c81VpD6Q

Both characters used the exact same axes also.
Also some people think charge effects distance and aoe, but it only effects damage, as you can see during the Aman's second thunder strike, where he uses the same level of charge (first level charge) as the Elin, but still misses, and he was standing much closer to the monster.

I think this has existed in korea for over a year and im really not sure why.

Good test. Makes me wonder what else is affected by these leaps.

interesting, I came in here to debunk you.. After comparing the video though, your Elin is actually farther away than the Aman.. lolol

Smaller hit-box AND longer reach??!!???

Whats next? Elins shoot lazer beams from their eyes?



Man I am definately playing an Elin for PvP.

ya Elin berserkers got longer reach, smaller hitbox, and harder to hit because of the leap, and harder to see.

For starters, sure.

After that, Elin will gain a racial that's usable in combat.

Dear God........

(For the sake of awesome, Ill remain Amani for my berserker..)

Elins also out range humans on thunder strike, trust me.

What you should check is whether the effect is simply increased range, or whether it's an alteration of the area effect, meaning your minimum range/deadzone would also be more noticeable.
