Hello fellow wiz :)

I just had a stupid idea.. If there was a sage/demon version for Essential sutra, what would it be? What would you want it to be?

My ideas so far:

Demon: Duration increased to 8 sec.
Sage: Immune to stuns while casting. (Or maybe only a chance to resist)

Demon: Increased Magic Attack while casting
Sage: Chance to save spark while casting

Demon: Purify when cast.
Sage: 33% Damage reduction while casting.

What are your ideas? Be creative. b:chuckle

    nice.

    I would say.

    demon: no casting time
    sage: +100% basic magic damage.

    demon: 8s time (this is yours)
    sage: invisible for 6s.

    wtf invisible for 6 seconds? do we look like sins to you?

    pw devs are lazy so they'd probably go with the same trend and keep the same sage mods and give demon spark skills have **** mods like the rest of them so the most likely mods would be like:

    demon: 50% chance to increase evasion by 200%.
    or like 25% chance to heal 500 hp.

    sage: 50% chance to only use one spark.

    Sage: Increase matk by 100%

    Decrease cast time? Sutra already decreases cast time by 100% :|

    Demon: Increase critical hit % by 2-3
    Sage: Increase matk by 100%

    That seems about right.

    Channeling and cast times are two different things.
    Extended to 8 seconds for just having sage/demon is enough imo b:dirty

    No casting time during sutra would be [demonicly?] overpowered as you could start with a FoW and have almost the full 5 seconds to instant cast the rest of your skillbar. If the target wasn't invincible at the time, it would be guaranteed to be dead by the end of it.

    Guys is just fun.
    And sura HAS channeling time. In some spells is pretty obvious. So without casting time it still would there small channeling time. Try ultimate with sutra and you'll see channelling time.

    Also it would be nice for money of course if dev. give us option to switch immediately between demon or sage. Once per month max. All learned sage spells would became demon and all demon would became sage.b:chuckle

    if it was between no cast or 100% mag atk...i would go sage.


    100% mag atk= your matk in C screen x2b:dirty
    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

    Purely hypothetical as it is, if the Devs made it work in any way like Sage Wellspring(which they more than likely would) then it would be suckful.
    I'd be happy if they changed the way it worked so that you get your 6 secs after your first skill use rather than the laggy way it's implemented now.

    Demon: Turn into a pheonix that is unclickable/Tabable/Squad Menuable and add 50% fire damage to each spell

    Sage: Turn into an unclickable dove that is unclickable/Tabable/Squad Menuable and add 50% water damage to each spell

    PWI devs gotta get some more interesting bonuses like that b:laugh

    let me guess, you are demon?

    Even though your demon/sage advantages arent really fair, you do have some good ideas.

    On your first option i'd say, switch the demon/sage effects. Anti stun suits demon better.

    sage: 100% more damage those 6 seconds
    demon: immune to stun/sleep/freeze/seal during those 6 seconds

    or

    sage: no casting time either
    demon: lasts 8 seconds instead of 6
    (this one can be switched)

    Uhh yeah they are. Sometimes you don't even move. Stuff just flies out of you. That's what happens when you cast fast enough you can see the animations for MS, hailstorm, and stone rain at the same time. . .

    It's even funnier with female fist archers that hit 5.0 It's like a total standing up seizure.
