Why is RISE getting rid of Evie's Healing Corona?

That was the primary reason that I played a Staff Evie over a Scythe Evie, for the Healing Corona, the ability to play a purely supportive role as Evie rather than being focused on damage. Not that I didn't like Scythe Evie, but I always preferred the healer/support role in MMO's, and with Healing Corona gone, I'm a lot more inclined to switch over to a Scythe Evie now. Seems like Scythe Evie will have the same supportive qualities as a Staff Evie now, with the same Mana Shield, a better evasive maneuver, and a better active (Insane Reaper beats Regeneration, IMO).

Why this change? Why get rid of one of Staff Evies defining core skills?

    The notes I read for RISE said that they are removing Evie's Healing Corona ability from the game. Somewhere in the translated patch notes.

    I think you have to show us where. A quick Control F shows nothing of the sort

    Well, unless I read that they're removing the healing animation or something, which I assume would be for potions. I could've sworn I read it somewhere.

    That would be absolutely insane tbh. I don't think they're stupid enough to do that.

    Maybe I'm wrong. I think this might've been what I read instead.

    [ Item Usage Animation Removed ]
    HP Potions and other consumable items are applied instantly without animation.
    These are the items which can be used without animation:
    Armor Temporary Repair Kits, HP Potions, Stimulants, Stamina Potions, SP Recovery Potions, Energy Potions, Attack Boost Potion, other consumable event items.
    HP Potions will always gain bonus recovery from the skill HP Potion Proficiency.
    This is the solution we came up after deleting the motion for drinking HP Potions.
    Some consumable items will share a 5 second cooldown instead of the animation.
    Cooldowns are shared among items of the same category.
    For example, HP Potion, Fine HP Potion, Superior HP Potion will share the same 5 second cooldown.
    These items will share the cooldown:
    Attack Boost Potions, Stimulants, Energy Potions, SP Recovery Potions, Stamina Potions.


    So HP potions are gonna be chuggable without having to stop and wait, go through an animation, or time the HP Recovery skill, it's just gonna be instant and passive with a small. Potion spam inbound.

    I could've sworn I saw something about Healing Corona being removed though. Did I dream about it?

    I think you were reading the patch notes with the thought "Nexon is gonna fck something up" and your mind made you see such things! I think the HP potion update is good, will be so helpful for all the Lanns out there. It's wasting away in my character slot :x

    - Removed Equipment durability mechanic when in battle: Equipment no longer breaks while fighting

    4 episodes later:

    - Added r1 enchants scrolls with a success rate of 0.5%, 95% break rate. If you manage to apply each scroll onto all parts of your equipment bosses automatically commit seppuku the moment you enter dungeon and you receive the maximum number of cores.
    - Introduced a new God-tier Enchant Rune available in the Depot Shop for 350.000 NX (limited to one per character) that automatically applies all of the aforementioned scrolls onto your equipment.

    Honestly I usually heal enough with regen alone, so I'm not that bothered by the corona removal. Now if they removed both regen and corona, i'd be a bit annoyed.

    Yeahno they aren't removing Corona or Regen for that matter xD I mean....I could see them removing one of Hagie's healing skills before Evie since tbh....one of them barely makes any difference in the end xD

    Guys, please... I can't anymore :D :D :D I'm literally crying with laughter! I also love how you mimicked Nexon patch notes so well, Puppyman! Sorry for reviving the thread again; I felt the need to leave a reply.
