Raven's Core
Why does this thing even exist in the game? I play as Raven and everything is good about him except for one thing that makes me never want to use my Awakening. His core. I cant stand this thing. It is a shield that protects me, but you cant move when it does and there is no way out of it. It does more harm then good, especially in a PvP where I cannot move when ANY attack hits me, special or not. I get killed all the time because of this stupid thing and it is more of a hinderence than it is helpful. I really want this thing gone or at least add an option to take it off.

at least you get reduced damage for a certain amount of hits and it chain with your combos dealing more damage.

You can escape the core stun by using Shadow Step, unless they changed it.
The core protects you, heals you, inflicts an additional penetration damage whenever you use a skill, and if you have FULL awakening, a continued penetrating dps that damages anyone that comes near you.
Also, if you're low on HP and have a few seconds left of your awekening, you can use a special active to make the core bigger and restore even more HP, along with some MP depending on how strong the core is.
So lets say your a BM, you can wiff a Wolf Fang just for the HP and MP regen, since a wiffed Wolf Fang restores 50%MP you used to activate the skill, the core will give you bonus MP, since any special active makes the core enlarge.

Simply put, Special Actives strengthen your Nasod Core.
The stronger your Nasod core is by the time your awakening ends, the more HP and MP you recieve.

Edit: You will love your core in Gate of Darkness runs.

Basically what Ali said.
Shadow Step might not work sometimes either because lag or the opponent performed an attack as soon as you activated it.
Do remember that you have a limited amount of time before the shield cant take any more damage and disapears.

Core is Ravens strong suit, shadow step when your core shield comes up and make sure when core is up you build it up so when core expires you get a good refund of hp and mp

Easy solution: Don't get hit XD.

You can jump cancel the core, too. Burning Rush also works instead of Shadow Step, but not Burning Fist.

Lol, then don't use the core at all! Just don't awaken! Problem solved! xD

That is difficult to do in some cases, especially against a hard opponent. Raven is a character that does not need to be nerfed like this! Nerf Ara or Add, just not Raven or Elsword because they are either under-powered or about average depending on the class change.

I don't get it. If you get hit and the shield stops movement, what do you thinks gonna happen if you get hit and you dont have a shield? are you really this dumb
