Luminous Arrow
15 energy
15 second recharge time
Bow Skill. Shoot an arrow above target foe. For 5...14 seconds foes in that area cannot "block" attacks. (Expertise).

Basically an equivalent thing in reality would be a flare. Nice and shiny, light's up the place, nobody can hide...

For some reason this reminds me of the Yugi-Oh card, "Swords of Revealing Light." :P But interesting idea.

yeah, that will most definitely get exploited. But if it was shorter it would be pretty meaningless... How about all non stance based blocking is effected. So this would effect (as the name implies) dervish, assassin and monk enchantments?

Animation: normal special shot animation, when the arrow is about a 3/4 of the way to its target it slows down, flares with light and jolts at the ground making a very bright light on the floor.

Um...most ,monk enchantments have a light/air based theme. This doesn't make sense.

What?
Fire makes light.
Burning Magnesium gives off plenty of light.
What's wrong with a "glowing" arrow?

I think they are talking me.

I suppose, but a lot of the skills in this game dont make sense. Like Meteor Shower, wtf, your magically displacing the cosmos to your bidding. Its a fantasy game, nothing really has to make sense.
