Clearly renewal, far more balanced than pre renewal, no acid bomb / sonic blow slaughter fest in woe anymore.
I don't get why people say "renewal is just skillspam and not tactics anymore in woe", i totally disagree with that, because of the new skills you have to calculate even more inbetween fights.
The new buffs and songs open up new ways to do new stuff.
In every way, renewal is better and more fun. People who say otherwise aren't up for a change and won't evolve. That's my oppinion, don't feel offended please.
*addition*
I'm not flaming any people who dislike 3rd classes, that's personal taste, but offending the whole renewal system because of that just doesn't make any sense.
Even renewal without 3rd classes works perfectly fine.
