Damage Range for Big Bang? - misc86 - 2009-05-24

Does anyone have a visual image of how good the range is?

EDIT: Yes, I do mean physical range. Froz, if you would kindly have an image that would be great. Just want to see if this is even worth placing points into.

No, but I can tell you that it's extremely obnoxious when used on bosses - noticed this in CWKPQ, where boss animations are crucial to knowing what's going on. It makes it impossible to see underneath its animation, meaning anyone who needs to pay attention or risk dying is screwed. As for myself, I couldn't see to position myself for Rush/attacking. Thankfully they only did this on the Black Guardians.

almost as bad as a bishop spamming genesis to kill the mobs...with their timing completely off

Lol, I was PISSED about that. Esp since I was hitting them at least 2-3 times before the bishop killed them (half the time he just cast Gene on absolutely nothing).[/COLOR]

I don't have a picture, but I can tell you the range is now terrible. You have to be practically hugging stuff to hit it, even fully charged.
Apparently when they reduced the maximum charge time,the also reduced the range, probably by accident if the range is scaled up by charge time.
Someone posted about this on Nexon's bug report forum.

I think the range before the charge time change was crap too, seems even smaller than ice strike.

Damage Range for Big Bang? - MissingLink - 2009-05-26

Less than ice strike. Lol. Actually the fully charged range is considerably less that thunderbolt. I just tested this on stationary targets (nependeaths).

The range increases with level. Being only 150, are you telling us the range is horrible with level 1 BB? Because it's supposed to be like that.

Damage Range for Big Bang? - MissingLink - 2009-05-27

What evidence do you have that the range increases with level?
I doubt that it does, seems the same to me. Actually, I have 17 points in it because I thought it might be useful after the charge time reductions.

Lol @ 8 posts of off-topic people either whining how certain classes shouldn't use their skills because it makes it hard for THEM to play, or discussing the physical range of the skill, not the damage range like the TC asked.

OP, I should have BB maxed on Friday (level 25 now), so I'll post a screenshot then.

Judging by that I think he did mean the physical range.

Well I'm way weak, but my level 20 @ 173 does like 23-31? or something like that with clean magic attack

I quit before Big Bang 30 came out, but after you place crucial skills, BB is said to be a decent skill to have in case you need to hunt non-holy weak monsters, Crimson Guardians being an example. Not that you'd need to do it during regular training but if there's a gold box event and whatnot, you can get filthy rich.

I apologize for my misunderstanding earlier; the topic title and the first post description are very misleading. I'll post the picture with max BB tomorrow so you can see.

are you talking about damage range or the range range?

That's the best I could do on Rash's, since they move. I was too tired last night when I leveled and maxed Big Bang to care where I tested it. From what I saw that was roughly the range; if you'd like I can find a stationary monster to try it on later, but in all honesty if I got the range wrong I was off by an eighth of a centimeter or so, and another screenshot would just look the same.

I can do 70ks tops on mobs, if you wanted a damage idea. Damage range is nice because of the 80% mastery, so I was hitting anywhere from 62k-80k charged, 9k-15k uncharged.

Looks like 170-180% ice strike/explosion range horizontally.

Thanks froz. how long does it take to fully charge?

Damage Range for Big Bang? - Russt - 2009-06-02

1 second if KMS updates shortened it (can't recall). 2 seconds if not.
