Let's go through the changes that greatly affected both the PvP and PvE of Kunoichi AWK.
There were 2 years of improvements from 2021 to 2022 in Kunoichi AWK, but when the year 2023 arrived, things only got worse with the changes made, losing the improvements made during the previous years.
One improvement that ended up ruining it was in the awakening skill, Delighted Blast (SF). Before, the melee skill applied float, and the explosion at a distance knocked down, penetrating the Frontal Guard at a distance. Today, it only knocks down, but it doesn't work properly, neither in melee nor at a distance. It fails a lot and doesn't apply CC during Frontal Guard, as it used to. Similar skills in classes like Striker AWK, Hashashin AWK, Corsair AWK, and others penetrate the frontal guard.
Another change was in the flow of the skill Flow: Pinwheel Fury. Before the change, it was a quick melee cut, much better for applying in the middle and at the end of the combo. Its connection was perfect. The current change with this clone that can only be applied in the middle of the combo ruined the ending, as there is no time to animate the clone and deal damage. The damage is also terrible, seeming not to apply any damage to the player, wasting the time of the CC with the skill animation. Before the change, the skill Lethal Spin Spree could apply both flows, Flow: Pinwheel Fury and then Flow: Indignation, after a float because they were quick melee cuts.
Another change was made to the skill Danse Macabre; they removed the slow effect from the skill, and in the year 2024, they removed the collision of the skill with players and monsters, adding a command like LMB to stop the skill. This made gameplay much more difficult. It is very hard in PvP moments and even in PvE to stop the skill in the right place. Please revert the skill to how it was before with collision and remove the LMB command or reverse the LMB command when pressed with S+RMB to not apply collision. So, it would be like this: S+LMB+RMB for the skill not to apply collision and leave the normal command with collision as S+LMB.
I really enjoy playing Black Desert, and I like playing Kunoichi AWK. It's not for nothing that I always write texts explaining, but the way it is today, I'm thinking of giving up on Black Desert because I have no desire to learn or play with other characters. Before the changes in 2023, many people started playing Kunoichi AWK, increasing views on streams and YouTube, but since the changes in 2023, many people stopped playing or switched characters. The improvements made in 2023 ruined the improvements from previous years, followed by a NERF improvement where there was no improvement at all.
