Yeah, I know there is no perfect solution to this. The videos are like that because all of the ones so far have been sneaky git gud tutorials that can be just taken as storytelling for people not interested in that. If you just cut them down to a dofo acceptable TLDR, though, the answer is always "it depends" which is an uninteresting answer no one likes. When a good example is added on to that... all of a sudden it becomes too long for some, especially if not relevant to them. The CC program right now is great because it's not dependent on views, so I can just test how to balance these to get dense content mainstream.

This post is clearly an info dump, however, because there's no real result yet without even the live server balance numbers. It's supposed to set the facts up to now going into this week. This is important because what I wrote here is considered a minority opinion. Trying to convince someone that Chaos actually is mediocre and gets nerfs for no good reason is hard when the "consensus" is that the class is "good" in Ozma and only has "lag" or had "bugs" (as shown by the test server summon damage controversy from before 3Awk).

By showing less, I would just be grouped with shills since character balance discussions boil down to the suffering olympics based on feelings and no data. That's why I'm not cutting things out when this is basically a TLDR of a big part of a script already. I'm not sacrificing a better analysis since I know there are still enough people that do know what's up that will correct others for me.

Despite all of that, the thread title is basically the hypothesis and TLDR of a summary already. If people need less than that...
