What changes would you do to skills?

Colum - Raging Tide

Ok this thread is purely for our own entertainment and something to think about instead of actual suggestions. The main idea is to choose any skill you like and tell how you would change it. Please notice that these changes shouldn't be too OP rather having a goal to balance the class / all classes.

Here is my example:

I'd take barbarian's Frighten and remove the slow debuff from it and add a little magic damage reduce debuff instead.

Euthymius - Heavens Tear

Isnt the magic damage reduction a part of Sage Frighten....? Would Sages get a stronger mag. reduction than demons then?

Anyway, for Psychics:
>Demon Sandburst trigger rate raised to 40%
>Crystal Light
-Slow reduced to 50%
-Has a 50% chance to apply a water resistance debuff. Water res. is Reduced by 25~40 (50?)% (Soulforce dependent). Lasts for 20 seconds.
-Deals Physical damage (?)

>Aqua Canon can be cast without a Target*
>Red Tide
Deals both water and physical damage,
Bleed is affected by Attack Levels/Defense Levels
Soulforce factor on RT's Bleed is doubled (bleed is among the weakest DoTs ever, seriously)


*Give most classes an AoE or two that they can use without a target to address Stealth

Slivaf - Dreamweaver

Altar Marrow Magical:

Increased cooldown to 15 seconds. (very important if the last bit was added)

Increase your magical resistance by 180%.
Decreases your physical resistance by 50%.

Demon/Sage would both have the VERY small chance to add an 'absorb' damage buff to you for 6 seconds, it will absorb 1500 points of damage. (could just change the time/absorbed damage a little bit so sage, and demon can be different. ) Please also note this skill is still purgable.

Oh yea forgot about sages. Increase for them then.

KingCrash - Dreamweaver

I would want all the constant channel aoe skills like vortex and dragon's breath to be able to be casted without the need of a target.

Reliea - Sanctuary

I would only do 2 things.
I would take Flesh Ream and Devour and remove their Chi requirement.

And all the Barbs went forth and tanked things and stuff, once more, with ease.

Sizzer - Raging Tide

I want Inner Harmony for Archers/Wizzies. b:pleased

FistToDeath - Dreamweaver

Nope. That's sage roar. Sage frighten has a 33% chance to freeze, demon has 20% chance to stun.

I'd reduce all attack skills cooldowns for clerics in Violet Dance mode by 0.5s to 1s.

Also, I'd increase the absorbing shield of bestial rage to 8.5k magic damage absorbed. 4k is meh.

Longknife - Harshlands

I would combine Aqua Cannon and Torrent into a zhen that costs one spark because that's totally logical.

Unholly - Morai

Inner Harmony + Awaken? b:shocked

~~~~~

I would buff up Winged Shells sheild a bit. 1k~ damage is a bit lacking in the days of r9rr. Maybe scale it off of Soulfoce so that it dosnt always explode on the first hit you take.

Desdi - Sanctuary

I would make Frost Scarab only cost 50chi or 35chi.
Nobody uses it nowadays because it costs one spark and you get little in return from it. I would also increase the damage of it to 200% weapon damage instead of 100%.

I was surprised the upcoming expansion didn't do anything to that skill but instead decided to merge Blazing Scarab into Ironwood. Blazing Scarab was weak but at least it gave decent chi and helped a lot in chi-making during battle as well as maintain macros (those who will choose to learn IronBlaze and lose Blazing Scarab will probably have their macros messed up).

Morridune - Raging Tide

all skills and all weapons (every classes) for BM cos rly we just haven't enough things to fill our hotbars

Surukuvio - Raging Tide

I'd extend Untamed Wrath's stun time because 2 sec is ridiculously low.

FistToDeath - Dreamweaver

The problem isn't so much the 2s stun, but that you're ~1.5s out of those 2 unable to do anything. Hooray.

I'd reduce cast time and increase stun time as well. 1s cast, 3.5s stun and there you go.

Winged Elf Archer
Demon Wings of Protection
The majestic power of the Winged Race increases nearby squad members' evasion
by 40% and speed by 15% for 30 minutes. The speed increase does stack with other skills.
Demon version always increases evasion by 50% and speed by 20%. Also, increases squad members' Critical Hit Chance by 10% for 30 minutes. Critical Hit Chance buff does stack with other skills. Overwrites Sage Wings of Protection.

Sage version always increases evasion and speed duration to 1 hour. Also, increases squad member's Critical Strike Damage by 15%. Critical Strike Damage does not stack with any other skill. Overwrites Demon Wings of Protection.

Zoldi - Morai

The amounts of HP or recovery points given by Mystics healing herbs should REALLY be more based on magic attack. Because they are pretty useful in FC when people are level 80-100 with average gears but almost useless for end game.

(This should actually be a real suggestion b:surrender)

Euzebe - Sanctuary

Gimme Physical damage on Landslide or Red Tide or something b:cry

Infyniti - Raging Tide

Have lvl 11 amp be an aoe like sage purge? Although that sounds a bit too OP.. b:shocked

/Slash - Lost City

I would give more power to barb's armagedon.

hitting arcane class 50k+ isnt enough 100k+ or gtfo b:pleased b:kiss

ObviousAlt - Raging Tide

Change archers Lvl 79 skill Blessing of the Condor


Currently: Increase own evasion by 1000% for 10 seconds


Change: Increases your chance to evade enemy skills by 25%，and 20% chance to evade negative status effects.. Lasts for 10 seconds

SerenityCNB - Dreamweaver

Violet Dance/Ultraviolet Dance: Cleric can heal. All heals are at 1/3 stregnth due to the aggressive surge of power in the the cleric's body, and all heals take an additional second longer to cast. This way a cleric can still be a cleric in metal mage mode, but need to switch between the two modes to make full use of the situation. (Another implementation would be healing in metal mage mode requires 5 chi per heal...regardless of the heal.) That way clerics can still be fully functional, and be able to switch modes more appropriately.

Physical attack mastery: Increase the power of our physical attacks, just as metal mastery increases the power of our metal based attacks.

Elven flight mastery: Full upgrade of elven flight mastery will add +.2 to any equipped botique wings, and an additional +.3 to haste speed.

Lightning torrent: An additional non chi using metal based AOE...to more appropriately cover the cooldown for razor feathers.

Siren's Kiss: Target centered instead of player centered.

Guardian's Light: Its cooldown is far too long. Especially in the age of G16 nirvana, R9r, Warsong attackers in pvp. 1.5/2 min cooldown means that its not spammable, but it is an efficient "Oh ****" button if the time comes.

Wings of protection: Needs a buff in the amount of damage that it can take. This little shell shatters too easily.

Thunderball: Decrease the cooldown and the channel time to make it stackable. This will at least give it some merit.

Blade Tempest (Cleric Style): Metal plus physical attack combined. Costs 2 sparks. Literally the cleric style version of Blade tempest in every way, except for sheer damage. I don't mind a wizard's Blade tempest hitting for more than mines. Lol. Why this skill? Because I WANT IT!!!!!! Lol.

Heaven's Wrath: It needs to be buffed. Its an obsolete skill once players hit 89 and have triple spark. Once that happens, this skill...which is one of the cleric's level 59 ulti's just sits there virtually unused ever again in any normal situations. This skill needs to be buffed in a way so that it does not overwrite triple spark...or revamped to make another skill entirely.

Inner Harmony: I want it for clerics, same as the sins have it.

Knockback/teleport: Something to escape close ranged combat should it arise. Most other mages/ranged types have some move(s) that they can do.

Stealth Detection: ALL CLASSES. All of us are supposed to be elite warriors. So we should have some insight to an assassin within our range.



Psychic Buffs/debuffs: They should fade with death...just like every other class...and be able to be purified/purged.

Sins: Unable to attack while in stealth. Must remove stealth first. This still gives the sin the element of suprise, but gives other players a better chance of defeating them.

Sins ranged type attacks: Knife throw and teleports: Should NOT exceed the range of that of a mage/archer. Sins are not meant to be ranged attackers, so giving them the ability to be lethal at range isn't good.

I'll come up with more as well. More that I wanted to add on.

ToyMaker_NOT - Raging Tide

Archer's Knockback arrow and wingspan pushes players too.

Deceptistar - Sanctuary

I would make the seeker vortex,
the original xxxx meters,
so that it would reach the other side of the TW crystal
without even moving my behind off my faction spawn platform

Walpurga - Dreamweaver

100% Demon QS proc

Wings of Protection has its own icon

blazing arrow resets timer when cast again

Archers get Tidal

Burnout - Harshlands

Rapid Growth insta - cast.

Vital Herb cuts all damage received by 50% while the plant is active

Invigorate also decreases channeling time by 10%

Energy Leech instant cast

Pets receive 100% benefit from gears (no seriously, hitting 150 damage to players is a joke)

TiggerPoo - Raging Tide

Abolish all of them. are you guys clueless or what. open your wallets morons... b:chuckle

BlackRapture - Raging Tide

Make summoning pets half the channeling time. Seriously.

Venomous Scarab needs a DoT now, since Blazing will now cost chi instead of replenish it faster. Did no one think Venomous Scarab to be underpowered? Demon's version excluded xD

Blazing/Ironwood combo seems epic so far.

I'm with Desdi on Frost. Less cost and/or more power. When I got one spark, it's going to my chrono skills.

Noxious Gas... Honestly, I'd like to see another 100% damage boost to it, if its channel is gonna last that long, make it rock the world when it lands >:D

Lucky Scarab seems perfect, but I wanna see that stun work on anything that Roar of the Pride will stun. It's not even an aoe, it deserves that much.

Parasitic Nova... Same as Noxious on the damage up. But also because it's a 2 spark move. Our ultimate needs to be feared.

Make our brambles work in PvP. Again, seriously.

Make Hood and Guard not cancel each other out.

Metabolic Boost and Nature's grace either need shorter cooldowns, or they need to cast a trigger effect much like Cornered Beast, but at the 40% or 50% mark, where it would automatically replenish hp/mp.

Lending Hand seems fine as is.

Fox Form seems fine, too.

However, I think all fox form skills need a weapon damage percent along with the base damage+ extra damage. Make it hurt

Fox Wallop/Befuddling Mist combo... as long as it still sprays the spell, I'm game. Wallop really didn't last nearly long enough to even make a difference. I'd swap that out for a spell interrupt any day.

Stunning Blow- I say if it's gonna cost a spark, I want it to spawn me next to the target from long range and THEN immobilize it.

Leech's upgrade seems nice, more hp regeneration and all.

Consume Spirit/Malefic Crush does too, but let's see even more damage since its cooldown got bumped higher. And I wanna keep Malefic Crush's skill animation. It's one of the few that raises attention when people see it.

As far as our curses go, why not let them stack? I don't see enough of them being exceptional to only let one be active at a time.

Amp... It's fine as is. Same with Crush Vigor. It'd be epic if the chi was transferred to the caster though. OP, but cool.

Soul Degeneration... unless it's sage, it's useless. Like Venomous Scarab is, on the other side of the coin. I say let it cast a healing nerf on the opponent.

Purge needs to work on every buff. Even if there's a 30% chance to work on the buffs that it doesn't already wipe.

Bewitch needs to no longer share cooldowns with the other bewitches. Otherwise, why spend the coin and spirit on them? Unless the tiger lasts another second, and the squirrel lastes a second more than that.

And of course, Soul Link and Shatter... Make it PvE also, and either lessen the spark cost to like 50 chi, or make it so the next spell that hits it becomes an aoe, damage and effect. That would make it worth casting. And also, make it stay linked to stealthed opponents.
