‼️Main Problems

① Excessive decrease in basic attack power and combat power reflection value

Attack power is significantly lower compared to other weapons, resulting in a significant loss in combat power calculation.

There are difficulties in entering some content with combat power restrictions, and the hunting speed is very slow for both single and area skills.

Overfarming relying on shields is meaningless due to the lack of spots in higher hunting grounds.

The motion of buff skills is large and long, making it inefficient even in solo play.

---

② Lack of ability to perform supporter role

Buff performance is significantly lacking compared to other roles (e.g., sword/shield), making the support position almost uncompetitive.

The skill application range is narrow during area engagements (melee), and it is limited to 'party members including oneself,' resulting in very low practical contribution.

Role performance is virtually impossible in large-scale battles because application does not extend to party/raid units, and a complete review of the overall role design is necessary.

---

③ In-game weapon appearance not implemented

Appearance by grade is applied to all weapons, but gauntlets are displayed completely barehanded except for the enhancement effect.

Even when equipping a mythic weapon, the appearance is not displayed, so the value of charging and the reward for equipment growth are not visually felt at all.

The fact that equipment images by grade are not applied in-game makes the game look incomplete.

---

④ Monotony of skills/motions and inconsistency with job concept

Most skill motions consist of monotonous motions such as one-two punches and front kick repetitions, greatly reducing the sense of impact and fun.

Unlike the setting of 'master of bare-handed combat,' there are unsightly skills that do not fit the concept, such as throwing stones and rocks.

The probability of inflicting status ailments is excessively low, so utility and control abilities are also below expectations.

Action unique to gauntlet weapons such as kicking, consecutive hits, and turning kicks are needed.

---

⑤ Fundamental limitations of overall weapon balance and mastery structure

The balance is not right in all aspects of attack, buff, motion, and utility, making it difficult to fully perform the identity of 'melee supporter'.

The mastery structure does not fit the current meta, resulting in very low contribution in party play and large-scale battles.

Among users, the weapon value evaluation is so poor that there are many opinions that 'disappointment is great if a gauntlet comes out when acquiring a mythic weapon'.

Just for rerolling or less.

Improvements needed

1) Readjustment of overall attack power and basic performance

Increase the basic attack power correction and combat power reflection value to a reasonable level compared to other weapons.

Optimize the delay and overall motion delay of single and area skills.

2) Complete review of supporter role structure

Expand the buff/shield application range to party/raid units.

Expand the range and improve judgment that can be used in area engagement situations.

Increase status ailment probability.

3) Apply weapon appearance in-game

Implement weapon appearances by grade normally in-game.

Visually enhance the appearance effects of mythic and high-grade weapons to improve satisfaction with equipment growth.

4) Complete renewal of skills and motions

Add motions using actions unique to gauntlets (consecutive hits, turning kicks, consecutive strikes, etc.).

Redesign skills that do not match the concept (throwing stones, rocks, etc.).

Modernize the skill structure focusing on impact, speed, and linkage.

5) Improve mastery and utility structure

Reorganize mastery in a direction that increases contribution in party-centered play.

Introduce a variable utility structure that can properly utilize the characteristics of a melee supporter.

Conclusion

The current gauntlet weapon needs improvement in all areas such as attack power, support ability, appearance, motion, and mastery.

A fundamental redesign at the level of a reboot is needed, not just simple numerical adjustments.

Users see the gauntlet not just as a balance issue, but as an issue of weapon identity and completeness.

In order to maintain the game's job diversity and the fun of weapon selection, we request that this weapon be actively reviewed and improved.
