If you could trade a skill

Which one would it be?

What I mean is if you could switch one of your skills with a skill from another class, which would it be? And which would you give up?

I would (for my Sin) give up Raving Slash, and choose either the Barb HP buff or the Cleric phys. defense buff.

For my Cleric(s)- give up Blessing of the Purehearted, and get soul transfusion, distance shrink, Will of the Bodhistiva, Alter Marrow (Physical) or Maze Steps.

EDIT: keep in mind that you'll still have the same stats- so a BM getting IH blessing or BIDS wouldn't be too effective, and a Wiz getting Perdition or Headhunt wouldn't do too much damage either.
Full power to the Vagiroscope!

    I would trade my first born son for soul transfusion. Nothing else even comes close. Plenty of skills would be nice to have, but never having to spend mana, ever, on ANYTHING, playing as one of the most mana intensive classes? OP

    Demon Celestial Guardian Seal
    Demon Ironheart Blessing

    Sage Spirit's Gift
    Sage SomeSkillIDontKnowAboutProbably

    Cleric's get enough free mana

    me though, Id trade hailstorm for silent seal (such a better way at keeping things from moving) -.-

    Now, Swimming Mastery would be the obvious skill to give up for veno but, since i don't want to be accused of exploiting an unfair advantage, i'll say Fox Wallop since i'll eventually be going Sage anyway.

    The skill i would trade in for would be Wizard's Stone Barrier if it could stack with Foxform.
    b:sin

    If i had the choice to trade a second skill i'd give up Frost Scarab for Essential Sutra.

    Keep in mind you still have your same stats, and IH is based a LOT off magic attack- so it wouldn't do much if used by an archer.

    Because spending 400 MP to get 300 back is TOTALLY free MP. =/

    Back on topic, aside from the obvious choice of Transfusion...I'd happily trade Flight Mastery for Wellspring Quaff or Essential Sutra too. b:thanks

    I'd trade:

    My veno's bramble hood for stone barrier (fox form + stone barrier b:dirty).

    My sin's tackling slash for a BM's golden bell.

    My barb's armageddon for the ability to use true form with fists/claws.

    My cleric's m.def buff for a metal version of blade tempest.

    My BM's roar of the pride for alacrity of the beast (and still keep shadowless kick, of course).

    My wizard's essential sutra for...**** that.

    My wizard's pyrogram, gush, or stone rain for ironheart.

    I tried to keep the trades somewhat even.

    b:chuckle Why do people keep on thinking that clerics get free mana when they think about these skills. Demon ih cost 100mp more then the mp regen it gives, so thats not saving us anything. though yes both demon CGS and sage Spirits gift give more mana then cast, I have -never- seen either of them for sale. I've only met one sage who had spirits gift, that skill is not foreseeably obtainable to a large majority of clerics.

    And yeah I'd want soul transfuse.

    Chill of the Deep --> Black Voodoo

    An Assassin with Black Voodoo, damage would be crazy, along with having my physical defensed buffed. That would be amazing to have.
