    yay they can only go insivisible for 21 seconds max!~
    without pots or anything.
    xD
    5% total mana per second = 20 seconds + 1 second for any natural regen that kicks in.
    but that means they can't cast anything if they reach you lols.
    b:shocked

    "
    Explosion
    deal 500 fire dmg on target and all enemies 20 meters around him."
    whut 20 meters?
    It's OVER NINE TEEN~!!!!!!
    b:shocked
    thats like the biggest aoe in the game then.
    (>.<)'

    Psychic has 2 20 meter aoes
    the scary part is, with magic classes their aoes get more range as you level them b:shocked
    Sins are Scissors. Psychics are Rocks.
    Archers, Venos, Barbs, Wizards, BMs, Mystics, Seekers are Paper.
    ...and Clerics are Mushrooms.
    Paper beats Rock. Scissors beats Paper. Scissors also happens to beat Rock...until Rock gets 50k+ soulforce at which point Rock becomes an unstoppable killing machine that beats Paper... and would beat Scissors but it can't find Scissors, because Scissors are invisible.
    So Scissors beat Paper and avoids Rock, and that is called BALANCE. -cheze

    me can has algebra? and calculus and particle physics?? hmmm? *wait no one read the last 2 parts of that >.<' that be me ebil ebil plans* b:shocked
    b:thanks
    me will try not to overload your brain...
    5% drain per seconds leads to a depletion time of 20 seconds (as thats when 100% of mana is used up. 100/5 = 20) factoring in natural mana regen would add about an extra 1 second assuming that the skill doesn't allow for fractions of a second of invisi. (Now this be in the situation where the assassin is running away relying solely on invisibility *as it seems no other class can detect them* which would buy then 21 seconds.
    >.>

    if u wanna go with alegbra then your calculations are only right when someone doesnt have mp charm, with mp charm it has 26 secs and thats good enough to get away or sneak behind someone from a far distance
    Most Ironic phrase in the English language is Common Sense, its easiest concept to understand yet few people ever grasp it.

    "yay they can only go insivisible for 21 seconds max!~

    also lol what? how does a mp charm add up to 26 seconds? It would be infinite as long as the charm last since charm ticks take 10 seconds while being invisible with max mana buys you 20+ seconds...
    so unless you figure a way to burn all your mana completely in 10 seconds while invisible, you'll stay invisible.

    Imagine a group of them on a world boss XD
    That will make doing bosses wayyy to fast LOL so i do not think that this is a true skill.

    Pretty sure mp charms have a cool down of 5 secs, but yeah you would still have infinite invisibility if you were willing to endure the charm ****.

    Side note: Is 5%mp/sec with the skill at lvl1 or lvl10? I'm guessing lvl10.

    .....Just think if the sage or demon skill requires no mp to be invisible.....OP b:shockedb:shocked

    There's only one 20m aoe in the skill list and it's caster-centered. The already existing caster-centered skills don't get more range (bm aoes, Siren's Kiss, Dragon's Breath).

    you said and you quote "yay they can only go insivisible for 21 seconds max!" Max? yes I seriously doubt that there isn't a cool down for the invisable skill and what happens when you want to turn it off? far as i know there isn't a skill where you can turn on and turn off whenever you feel like it. oh no i turned the invisable button on and i have a mp charm how am i going to get outb:cry

    About the Assassin Moves.... here are my views :

    poignant attack +200% critical
    stealth invisibility
    concentration x2 damage (15 secs)
    Cross Slash 200% base dmg +500

    the above moves give a combined factor of
    200% x 2 x 3(200% Critical = 3x Factored Dmg ?? )
    With a high critical rate, an assassin can easily pull of a critical move most often.
    so lets see, the above moves do 1200% or x12 Base Dmg ? o.O Isn't that hell lot of overpowered ?? damn...


    These are all assuming the above moves can be combo'ed though, with 3 Sparks. If any 2 of the above moves requires 2 Sparks (With the exception of Stealth), What I am saying might be wrong.. Oh well lets just wait and see b:shocked ( Defense Reduction Skills not Included ) b:surrender

    I can surely say Assassins are going to be really hell of an Overpowered Class. Which Class do you know of that can pull of 12x their Basic Dmg o.O...

    And once again, to assume all this without Frenzy or Extreme Poison + Misc other Amplification b:shocked

    Haven't really kept up with these two new classes since I'll still be playing my main. I was debating on trying out the Physhic, if they had cool skills, but according to that translation, they seem pretty drab. To me they just seem like they took all the magic classes's skills, put them in a hat, and started picking out the lottery.


    I hope they aren't necessarily like the description.
    I want curses and DoTs!
    Now that would fit the Physhic, and that would be NEW.

    you guys keep forgeting that the Assassin is going to use daggers. They wont have a high damage attack to begin with. So even 12x damage wont be alot. And it wont be every attack. They will use there mana for stealth so they will only have a small amout of mana to attack with. Unless they pot before they attack. I know u keep saying Mana charm but the majority of players dont use charms. Its pots or wait.
    Important things to remember:

    1) Two things are infinite: the universe and human stupidity; and I'm not sure about the universe.

    2) If at first you don't succeed, failure may be your style.

    3) If your going into an fb and the BladeMaster screams "LEROY JENKINS" as he runs into the cave, leave the party. It's only going to get worse from then on.

    Now we all know that those stats wont stay like that. First off Words are Words and Actions speak louder then Words we'll just have to find out how the moves are used. If the Classes come out and the moves are like they are in the description im pretty sure that they wont be as big as most people are making it to be.

    If the moves are indeed overpowered its not like some people categorized some of the classes now as overpowered and eventually some got over it and moved on with the PWI lifes and theres still the people left who still are complaining about it.

    So this is how i see it. The classes will eventually get nerfed if the moves/other stuff are to strong. Or, they'll stay the same and you'll have to get over it. just like with the current classes people classify as overpowered.

    P.S. I dont want to see anyone saying they never even thought of or said a class was to strong. Thats just a complete lie.

    Your Welcome!!

    Well they wear light/robes, so they at least can be killed from a surprise attack, right?

    Besides, MMOs need more cutthroat strategic PVP instead of the "let's stand there hitting each other till one of us dies" cliche. You'll need a bit more strategy to beat the new classes sure, but they probably won't be glaringly imba IMO.

    It's probably just a jump-back skill like the wizards have. I can't see any reason why they would give the new class the ability to tele from city to city. :/

    Trufax.

    If it is a teleport from city to city, maybe if they still had to pay the teleport fee it wouldn't be as bad.

    I don't know what the Wizard teleport is like, but from my experiences on other MMOs, Psychics could plausibly have instant teleportation to anywhere in range of sight.

    The two new classes seem really interesting and may add some fun things that PW is lacking as an MMO overall.

    However, they are STILL going to be a matter of preference. There's a reason people level their mains, and clearly EVERYONE is going to want to try these, but they won't be for everyone and the 90+ ones will probably be pretty balanced.

    Keep in mind that they may also balance out some of the other classes to account for the skills here! So maybe Wiz will get something to make them more desirable to level, for instance.

    Either way, it's all speculation now b:shutup

    From the looks of it Assassin seems to be the heavy dmg dealer, while Psychic seems to be more support with the 2 bless moves, increase defenses etc. The two classes would probably duo very well in PvP.

    Just a bit of FYI the name of the Psychic class should actually be Psionicist. Psychics are fortune tellers. *turn on heavy sarcasm generator*(Psychic: 'I predict that that mob is going to attack the squad!' Squad Member: 'Gee without you we would be Lost!
