Hey guys. I was hit by this bug when I hitted level 30 and got my I/L job and I went straight for Thunder Bolt. It seems like its bugged since it hit for no more than 1 dmg. Even my Energy Bolt and Cold Beam hits for between 20-100 and they have just 1 SP into them. My Thunder Bolt now has 3 SP into it. Ive tried many different mobs, and it seems like the highest I can hit is 4-5 dmg on mushrooms or so. Best Regards Dingodolk
It has to do with the "Basic Attack" that the skills have. Level 1 Thunder Bolt has just 2 Basic Attack, i.e super weak. In contrast, level 1 Energy Bolt has 20 Basic Attack and level 1 Cold Beam has 13 Basic Attack.
I believe thunder bold requires more magic and skill points than cold beam. The mastery is different as one is a single target skill and the other is multiple. Check this http://bbb.hidden-street.net/monster/element-weakness-list there are monsters weak to thunder. Try hitting one of those and see if the damage I increases
It can't be that I only hit 8 on those mobs that I should be able to do high dmg on. It makes no sense at all. I did play I/L can in the days when i started playing this game and I have never seen this before.
Yes, that is how Thunder Bolt works. I can guarantee you that no matter how early you played GMS, it was always like this. Level 1 Thunder Bolt would hit between 1~10 damage. Around level 15 Thunder Bolt is 100~250 damage and level 25 Thunder Bolt is close to 300~450 damage for an average wizard. Source: Have had I/L Wizards in both MapleRoyals and early GMS versions.
Pretty sure it's normal, too. Heal lv1 also dealt 1 damage to undead monsters, so thunderbolt dealing 1 dmg at lv1 isn't that surprising.
Early level 2nd job mage skills do no damage, it's always been that was for pre-BB maple. This is not an issue.
I almost forgot about it but tested! this is thunder bolt lvl 1 with 173 magic pure int no gear, the skill goes from 5-15 max This is thunder bolt lvl 7 with 173 magic pure int no gear, skill goes from 50-135 max
