I just found this skill. What!? Can we try to bring it back? Play test it some weekend? As a PvE-only skill? Something?

Uh... Balance?

Loki Seiguro · Dec 09, 2007, 04:27 AM // 04:27

whats the point of the skill???

HayesA · Dec 09, 2007, 04:33 AM // 04:33

lol, what an awesome skill.

Course, it's 100% unbalenced, and totally way out of line... But damn son, that would be bloody awesome. I would enjoy knowing the mechanics of what that skill would entail. Would you become totally void of attention? (AKA, aggro no longer applies to you for X time.)

that would make running places 100% easy, hey look a mob *run skill* *disappear* *appear on other side* done

As a PvE skill, it really doesn't need balance. Tie it to Illusion. If you move, you lose disappear. It is roughly the equivalent to Gwen's Feign Death or Hide in the BMP. I think it would be fun.

Would be interesting to see how that'd work out. I like the icon art for it.

on the same topic, they should return this skill:

for help with all the new shiny hexes the new campaigns have brought.

And LOL @ this skill:

Lol it would screw the game over so much. The skill icon is nice as said before.

nrvllrgrs · Dec 09, 2007, 07:15 AM // 07:15

If the skill were a PvE-only skill, how would screw over the game? If the skill required that the player not move, how would this screw over the game? Would it be better if it were indirectly linked to Fast Casting (With Fasting Casting 4 or less, this spell has a 50% chance to fail)?

As someone already stated above, anyone could run anywhere at any lvl, would be hard below lvl 5-ish sure, but still doable. There is no need for a skill like this, it wasn't kept in at release for good reason. I'ts not the only one either, there were a lot of great skills they had to take out, cuz they would have screwed up the balance of the game.

*EDIT* add on
On a side note, look at the skill "Spontaneous Combustion" that was taken out, I believe it was meant to be a end boss (mob only) type skill, but still wtf?
Description: Target catches on fire then Explodes?!?!?! lmao
"I cast DEATH on you!"

As funny as that sounds, its just wrong and way unbalanced... I'de still like to see some people explode though ^^

Div · Dec 09, 2007, 10:37 AM // 10:37

There's a reason why they removed that skill from the game. It's either going to be insanely game breaking (allow for easy farming of any boss/mob or running) or completely useless (if you make it end when you move/attack/cast).

gone · Dec 09, 2007, 10:40 AM // 10:40

I can't see it being any more game breaking than consuming/traversing or shadow stepping/recalling/etc.

arcanemacabre · Dec 09, 2007, 10:50 AM // 10:50

I would prefer a PvE skill like "Hide" and/or "Feign Death," the skills Gwen use in the BMP. Could be cool and at least more creative than the PvE skills we have currently.

Pretty broken then?

RSGashapon · Dec 09, 2007, 11:20 AM // 11:20

Personally I'd like to see Lightning Storm make a reappearance (pun only slightly intended), properly balanced of course. It's never seemed right that Fire Storm doesn't have an appropriate lightning-based AoE counterpart. Chain Lightning is alright, but who wouldn't like to cast giant bolts of electricity down upon their enemies?

Steboy93 · Dec 09, 2007, 11:27 AM // 11:27

Lol that skill looks cool, now i'm looking through al the removed skills

I had forgotten how horribly bad Unnatural Signet was before they remade it.
Worst Skill Ever

On topic, no Disappear, please.

That was an in town skill, the same type as the one mad kin thorm uses to kill people adjacent to him, on haloween.

If I recall correctly(knowing me thats a rather small chance)it had the fire storm animation.
