.....wow..... >_<
I haven't laughed that hard in a good long while.... many thanks!
Thoughts: Seems a little overpowered. Mesmers would be put out of business.
Suggestions: Change the name to 'Charmer', or something similar, maybe?
Thoughts pt II: Stereotypical Wammos/Male-played Female Eles (the kind that only dance in pre) seem to be the failing prototypes of this.
Also:
"Get Away from my Man!"- Add in, potentially, a dazing effect on all but one male, made entirely at random. If there's three guys in a party, one of which is me, and the only female there decides to scream that, I'm sure as heck going to be confused.

Hillarious!

I would suggest that a better name other than "Gender Bender" be used though.

Good one, mate.
Keep those creative juices flowing.
Cheers.

LOL, battle of the sexes. One of the most creative (and hilarious) classes I've ever seen. Saddest part is, I think it would actually work! Could bring a lot of fun into GW, even moreso than Mesmers.

I vote yes on this class!

Changed name to "Gender Mage." May sound wierd but I dunno. ANY name suggestions would be helpful lol.

One skill I was gonna give to Masculinity I was gonna call "I Can't Beleive It's Not XXXXXX." Couldn't plug a GW word into the XXXXXX. Butter just doesn't work for GW lol.
