Create a Skill

Hm... if i have 80 energy due to using energy storage, after 30energy only 50 would count. 50x5 is would be a 250 damage
if used with the glyph that instantly recharges next skill but makes it cost u all ur energy, (i think it's Glyph of Sacrifice) i can re-cast it and deal 500 damage. (And it's energy, not Mana ) Longer knockdown duration in game that can be caused by human characters is 4 seconds and it's dealt by a hammer attack.. so i guess 5 seconds is too much

If i use this one with the one above, i'd own gw xD
and skills like mindfreeze would be spammable ( no exhauston)

Because I'm bored...

I don't know if anyone will agree that this is balanced, but if it was created it would be fun. I do believe the draw backs are good enough to keep the skill balanced, though. One other thing, if it's not great for the monk there's always the warrior with secondary monk who uses little to no energy skills. Wammos FTW!

(Although I may need some more work on it)

I'd like to see some of the Mesmer's skills start to resemble that of the stage magician on which the class is based. Perhaps a playing card projectile that does bleeding damage, or a flock of doves that flies out of the Mesmer's sleeves and acts as a temporary animal companion. It's a shame they don't wear top hats.

Mesmers aren't some crappy "impress the kiddies" magicians. They are meant to make the opponent rips his hair out. Which he does just fine

There should really be a Mesmer NPC named Gob (or Jobe, to dodge trademark issues) who would gladly tell you and anybody else within earshot that there is no shame in being an "illusionist."

Hey, that gives me another great idea for a Mesmer skill.

THE FINAL COUNTDOWN
cost: 10 Mana
casting time: 2 sec
effect: Foe loses all mana if a spell is not successfully cast in the next 10 seconds.

Tainted Soul.
enchantment. Death magic.
10e, 20sec recharge
For x...X seconds, if target ally becomes the target of life-stealing, the caster takes X damage (equal to the amount stolen), and becomes poisoned for 4-6 seconds.

the target in this case would still lose the life, but so would the 'thief', but they would lose it as damage. This one should still affect vamp weapons and weapon spells.


also,

Lifelock
enchantment. Protection Spell.
5e, 15 second recharge
for 5...10 seconds, Target Ally cannot lose life due to life-stealing spells or skills. (vampiric weapons are unaffected.)




currently the only thing I know of to counter life-stealing is the maintained enchantment that works like PS.
there should be others. (if there are and I missed them then whoops. move on, my suggestions are still good, theres not enough couter to lifestealing skills to be called balanced anyway.)

Crusade

Monk Smiting Prayers

10e 1/4c 60r
Enchantment Spell. (5..20..30) All party members move and attack 33% faster. This enchantment renews itself on an ally that hits with an attack. (Must be enchanted)

More useful for melee and ranged attack players, but hey, it's fun for THEM to use it. It's just that if they kill quickly with no one else to hit for a long time, the spell could wear off before it's even almost recharged. Anyways, monks have better use of tactics than warriors, so why not get something in return, hmm?

Note: When it says "hits with an attack" that means when the ally lands a hit with a weapon. It can be daggers or wands. They are all weapons which will count if any of them hit.

Please show me where you have found this. I have never seen anything before that says mesmers are based around David Copperfield - the only thing I've seen it related to is Franz Mesmer, the guy whose work inspired hypnosis.

On topic, I'm very glad most of these skills are not in the game - it's broken enough as is.

We can dream, can we? :P

Yeah thats not extremely OP.
Maybe Target Other ally or something, not all party members

Since it renews every attack, why would it be 5..20..30, maybe like 0..2..3

Maybe it's ok if it just targets only one instead of every party member. And yeah, maybe the duration should be decreased, but I don't know about that low. If it has to be that low, then the recharge should decrease too. Maybe there should be a set back that takes away the enchantment instead. I'm thinking something that relates to [Battle Rage]. I just don't like the duration be so low. Then this skill would be pointless. So, need work on the draw back I guess.

I forgot to that put in, yeah, the recharge would have to be shortened by a lot too, like 20 second recharge or something

Alright. Cool. I still hate that you put the duration that low. Like I said, I might lean towards making a drawback like [Battle Rage]. Instead of renewing, it would end if target ally uses a skill unless it's an attack skill. Recharge could be brought down to 20r and time duration might last in 5..10..15 seconds. Otherwise, make the duration 3..4..5 seconds with the recharge of 45r. By the way, it doesn't have to target other ally. Self target would work too. Not sure what else I should do with it. Need more time.

I've always liked the idea of cool meditation skills for mesmers :P

I really like the idea for lassitude but it should have a longer recharge since exhaustion is such a bitch.

For Cycle of pain could I suggest it be like this instead:


Aversion of blood elite enchantment spell (blood magic)

Energy cost: 15 Casting time: 2 Recharge time: 30

For the next 15-30 seconds the next time you would steal health from target foe the amount of health gained is reduced by 40-20% and target foe suffers an additional 20-40% damage. Everytime you sacrifice health while under the effects of this enchantment you sacrifice 100% more.

Now for a long time ive been wishing for an air magic spell that has an area affect and causes a lot of damage. Here is my proposal:

Thunderstorm Elite spell (air magic)

Energy cost: 25 Casting time: 5 Recharge time: 45

Create a thunderstorm at target foes location. Every 2 seconds for the next 10 seconds one foe in the target area is struck for 40-130 lightening damage, the same foe cannot be struck twice. This skill has 25% armour penetration and causes exhaustion.


Obviously thunderstorm sounds awesome

Energy cost: 20 Casting time: 40 not rechargeable, until it dies

make a duplicate of yourself, uses same skill as you do.

if duplicate dies you die.
if you die duplicate becomes you.

Restoration

Elite Enchantment Spell For 10..15..20 seconds, whenever target ally takes more than 60..50..40 damage from the next 5..7..8 attacks or spells, that ally is healed for 50..80..100 health. The closest spirit within earshot loses 50..40..30 health this way or enchantment fails.
