PVP balance on this server is super trash.
Shamans are useless, their skills hit like a wet noodle
Sura weapon is overpowered
Archers are just lol
People beating others with horses on wars because of brilliant skills changes making skills hit less than auto attacks.
The rest of the server is great, PVE is fine as well as a playability of the server is really neat, there are some really good quality of life changes, however metin without good pvp is trash, i am amazed they made pvp somehow worse than it is on global server and to think i have spend about 40 euro on it for itemshop PVE stuff.
I believe this so called "balance" has been aimed only on the people that made their characters into absolute end game, they balanced classes according to the highest tier equipment, and by doing that they completely screwed all the rest who doesnt have the top level stuff to play with. This kind of balancing policy makes it really bad to pvp for anyone who does not have best stuff on the server yet, and you could clearly see it in guild wars between guilds that has members with 90 lvl eq.
This is not the way you balance out things, you could have changed items not the classes themselves.
pvp = 0/10
PVE and all the rest = 10/10
Do i recommend playing it? No, this game is all about pvp.
