Ability Wishlist

By the way, ive been playing a venomancer for 20 levels now! and they have it SWEET compared to barbs! the only thing a venomancer could use, is an increase in speed movement.... otherwise, build a tank!!! (buy the scrolls that make them stronger) or buy a herc if u dont wanna die so often.

Wizards need a: anti squishy skill
Barbs need a: anti magic or pull/stun skill
Clerics need a: Speed or Self-Super mana regen
Archers need a: Lure (like veno) arrow, or hp regen skill
Venos need a: speed increase or Pet debuffer/ailment remover
Blademasters need a: ranged axe

Class - Archer
Skill Suggestion - Blinding arrow.. Decreace foe accuracy by 40% for a 25sec (rasie the longer higher the lvl the skill gets)
Logic - Kinda shocked they dont have a move like that now... Might as well rasie chance of them not hitting us even more..

Class - Cleric
skill - Healing Mastery
logic - other classes have masteries that boost their primary functions, the cleric is kind of lacking in this and the only improvements are the skills themselves or magic and equipment improvements.

Class - Cleric
skill - Where'd they go?
description - loses all enemy aggro and cannot be reaggroed for x duration
logic - clerics are neccessary to any group action and no other class has a res so in groups with the cleric running solo, they are the only ones who cannot die without large experience loss and should have some way to counteract that

ZOMG thats brilliant hate all the barbs and bms running around with misty forest rings. Then again it shudnt work on other archers. Archer fights are long and miss filled enough.

Edit:double post la

Cleric Skills Suggestion:

Skill fix: During the usage of Regeneration Aura, we're also allow to use special pots such as jade powders and such.
Logic: If we're able to use MP potions while casting this, why aren't we able to use potions such as jade powders?

Skill: AOE Purify
Logic: There are bosses that uses AOE sleep, AOE hp debuff, AOE mana drain, AOE poison, its only logical that we get an AOE purify. At least if we max it

Skill addition: For Regeneration Aura, if we can also regenerate the MP of the rest of the party such as 100mp every 5 seconds plus 20% of base magic attack, even if we don't regenerate it ourselves.
Logic: if there was two clerics, they would heal everyone in the party and they would help each other by regenerating mp xD

Skill: Speed Buff (Source of light): +2m/sec for 360 seconds. Cooldown: 400seconds
Logic: Clerics are so slow. If a party is fighting on all fronts, the cleric is running back and forth healing and at times, we're just too slow -_-

FIX THE PHOENIX'S FLESH REAM PLEASE!!!!

Class: Cleric
Skill: Some sort of movement buff, either short burst (20-30s) or less effective but for longer (half hour/one hour)
Logic: Cleric's are f****** slow!!!!! It sucks when you are trying to keep up with a party in TT, FB etc. Don't say "oh but the archers can speed buff you.", what if you don't HAVE an archer in your party, or if you are at the last boss of a long fb like 39, 51 and 79 where it takes forever to get to the end (even wined) and everyone dies including yourself for one reason or another and you need to come back to revive everyone and try again, it sucks running the WHOLE dungeon at 4.8m/s with NO speed buffs since IF you even HAD an archer he/she was dead at the end of the FB.

Class: Cleric
Skill: some sort of skill which makes you immune to stuns like the BM lvl 59 skill.
Logic: When clerics are facing a BM who actually knows how to stun, it's impossible to beat them. They stun after stun after stun and you can't get one hit in before they kill you, it's just so annoying and with the low defence and HP and plume shell not lasting forever, it's impossible to survive the onslaught of stuns and mass damage, just need a skill which lasts 10 even 5 seconds to avoid atleast ONE stun so we can freeze them or whatever or even run away.

Class: Cleric
Skill: Knockback skill
Logic: Like the archers knockback AOE, we need a skill like that so we don't get a barrage of mobs or even players attacking us, if possible give a 3 second sleep to the players so you can run away atleast, when mobs or players are melee range it's pretty much impossible for a cleric to kill them without running away to get to a bigger range.

Class: Cleric
Skill: Purify over time (every 5 seconds or something)
Logic: When you are healing the tank of a party and the defence debuff just keeps getting laid on so fast (like every 2 seconds) it's hard to keep up with the purify AND heal at the same time since purify has a 13 second cool down at level 1. Also I've noticed the light armour clerics trying to heal and purify at the same time and miserably failing since their heals are greatly reduced because of their lack of magic and having a purify interupt your heal spam is quite hard to do.

Class: Cleric
Skill: another elemental damage skill
Logic: clerics only have 5 elemental damage skills: cyclone, wield thunder, thunder ball, sirens kiss and tempest. Tempest you need two sparks to use and takes forever to cast so you don't use it much, thunder ball is a crappy damage skill which no one ever uses or levels, sirens kiss takes 1 spark to use and doesn't do much damage either which leave 2 elemental skills. When attacking heavy armour classes this is bad since there is a moment where you are waiting for both of these skills' cooldown to be up so you can use them again. Just need another skill like cyclone but reduces attack damage maybe or something else.

CLASS: Blademaster
SKILL: A skill similar to "Final Fantasy VII 'Omnislash.'"
RANGE: Melee
MANA: 400
CHANNEL: 0.2 seconds
CAST: 1.0 seconds
COOLDOWN: 2 minutes
WEAPON: [size=+1]Unarmed, Fist or Claw[/size]

LOGIC: The best perk of the fist user is their skill animations. Why not utilize it?
EFFECT: Attacks a single target dealing base physical damage each hit, plus 300% weapon damage each hit, plus a fixed amount of damage each hit. This skill is uninterruptable and hits the target a random number of times. Random number of hits increase with increase of dexterity. If attack misses, skill is canceled.

Requires 2 Spark

Sage version adds 1000 fire damage to each hit.
Demon version adds 4% critical rate to each hit while skill is active.


~~ AND ~~


CLASS: Blademaster
SKILL: A ranged skill for the fist user.
LOGIC: Other then the fist users horribly low damage, the fist user has a huge disadvantage when it comes to ranged skills. Yeah, yeah, we can use a bow but unless the designers want to add a 'Bow Skill Tree' for Blademasters (which wouldn't be a bad idea), we should at least get a ranged fist skill. Something other then Drakes Ray. A ranged stun would be nice!

Class: Cleric
Skill: another elemental damage skill
Logic: clerics only have 5 elemental damage skills: cyclone, wield thunder, thunder ball, sirens kiss and tempest. Tempest you need two sparks to use and takes forever to cast so you don't use it much, thunder ball is a crappy damage skill which no one ever uses or levels, sirens kiss takes 1 spark to use and doesn't do much damage either which leave 2 elemental skills. When attacking heavy armour classes this is bad since there is a moment where you are waiting for both of these skills' cooldown to be up so you can use them again. Just need another skill like cyclone but reduces attack damage maybe or something else.

You touched an interesting point there.
And my suggestion here goes to reduce thunderball casting time (2.4 seconds, wield thunder is 2.5 a lot more devastasting), since wizards have 2 Damage over Time spells with 1 second cast only.
Siren kiss, make it so we DONT need to get closer to any target, just click and cast it wherever we are (same goes for wizard's dragon breath and emberstorm).

Class: Barbarian (tiger and humanoide)
Skill: A skill that would give some MP in exchange for HP (like 1000hp for 250mp), that could be learned somewhere between lvl30 and lvl40.
Logic: Barbs need to put stat points into str, dex and the rest go to vit. We have very little MP, and the regeneration is very slow. From lvl30, mag mobs get more frequente and the only arm we heave is Alacrity of the beast. At lvl46, I have a bit more than 600 MP and alacrity of the beast costs 44 mana, meaning I can cast it 14 times considering I didn't cast beastking's ispiration and that I'm at full mp already in trueform. On mobs with mag attacks, if I want to cancel them all, I'll usually need to cast it 2 times on the same mob. One manapot every 7 mobs is just to many, and meditate is just to long.
With a skill that exchanges (a relatively large number of) hp for (a relatively low number of) mp, I wouldn't need to wait ethernally to regenerate mp. Meditating to recover 2000 hp is still faster than regenerating 500 mp.

Indeed, you guys are both right somehow. Clerics really suck at chaining skills, due to the huge cast time or cooldown of the base magic skills. Thats why they do have a hard time killing high HP classes like blademasters or barbs, even more when they have a charm which totally screws the process.
If clerics want to keep their attack chain up, (which remains slow anyhow) they have to use plumeshot which is ineffective versus melees.

So yes, basically giving Siren's Kiss more range, could make this skill actually usefull and give Clerics an fast cast aoe skill. Maybe add a chance of casting without spark? Why does it even need a spark anyway ?
Last thing would be an extra elemental skill that could help clerics build chains of attacks.
Even though Clerics are not made to attack in the first place, classes should be fairly balanced. Any class should have the possibilty of killing any other.
So :
Class - Cleric
Skill suggestion - Siren's Kiss : 27 meters radius / chance of casting without spark
Logic - see above

Class - Cleric
Skill Suggestion - New magic skill : Cast 1.0 seconds / Cooldown 3.0 seconds
Logic - see above

Class: All Classes
Skill: Immunity: Level 100 - Gives you immunity to all damage for 5 seconds.
Immunity Master: Level 150 - Gives you immunity to all damage even if you die. Lasts until you log out.
Logic - Gives a great power for all that hard work that they did.

I have noticed that everyone bases their skills on 1v1 pvp when this game is not about 1v1 pvp. Not all classes are supposed to kill players they are designed for support (clerics, venomancers) or to stay in the back behind other classes (wizards, archers). Most of the skill ideas you have would unbalance the game quite a bit but thats expected when players try to make things.

I disagree on the veno pet purify. I have a hercules and if I could purify him, that would make the barbarian class useless. I LIKE it that there are bosses I can't hope to tank due to debuffs. After the last mmo I played, I'm obsessed with class balancing since that game had none.

Clerics and a movement speed buff, yes I agree, they do need that. I have seen some good ideas in this topic that would work rather well. Now for my idea

Class: Venomancer
Skill: Blazing Scarab, Frost Scarab
The idea here is that they should be those elements as their normal attacks, not just the damage over times in which the element does not seem to even matter in the least bit.
Logic: Simply making the skills do what they really should do.

you would be right accepet for one thing Zoe no one does call a wizard for anything at all for them to stand in the back and believe this game is noway shape or form balanced at all an you can quote me on that...

class venomancer
skill - FIX myriad rainbow
reason - b/c we work to get our pages for nothing?!?

The skill IS NOT wrong, ecatomb description is.
Check PWMY description and you will see it states clearly "single target".

Class: Cleric
Skill: Unholy heal - A temporary debuff that converts heals to the target into damage received
Logic: It would allow full support clerics to do some cool DD.

I think this would make for some very interesting gameplay. I like it!

Class- veno
skills - all the melee skills, turn of the stupid restriction that we HAVE to use a magic weapon. Allow venos to use full on AXES and SWORDS etc in fox form.
logic - melee venos sux BIG TIME because the damage from magic weapons is pathetic and therefore venos cant hold agro at all.
