- ✅ Mobility has been improved, and you can see immediate effects in PvP.
- ✅ The slow casting speed and short skill range are still pointed out as drawbacks.
- ✅ Hunting speed has been improved in the low-stat range, but it may still not be an attractive choice for high-stat, heavy-spending users.
