Same. Rofl.

I'll take mirror of Delusions as my choice spell to be brought back.

Mirror of Delusions:
Hex Spell. If target foe suffers from a Hex in the next 10 seconds, all nearby foes suffer from that same Hex. With Illusion Magic 4 or less, this spell has a 50% chance to fail.

More skills would be a welcome addition to the game in my book. Plus, I've been wanting more aoe air magic spells for a long time now. You would think the air magic category would have it's fair share of aoe spells seeing as though it's called "air".

I'd also like to see more wind spells as well.

Are you crazy? Mirror would be the most OP of any of them. Mark of Pain anyone? SS maybe? How about wandering eye for instant aoe spike? It would be ridiculous.

Some of these skills are so lulzy

/signed for bringing back lightening storm and some of the other skills

That lightning storm looked imba untill I realised it only hits one foe per second, then you realise it is actually rather crap.

Kaida the Heartless · Jul 28, 2008, 04:05 AM // 04:05

Thats why I want mirror brought into the game. :]

roshanabey2 · Jul 28, 2008, 04:24 PM // 16:24

who cares about lightning storm, bring back dissapear (mesmer skill that makes you dissapear for 10secs) that would be awesome!!

I'd like to see those traps on assa and mirror of delusions on a mesmer
The BM skills were rather weird IMO
/Signed for PvE only and profession/attribute related

Yeah, those assassin traps look epic.

Kaida the Heartless · Jul 29, 2008, 09:41 AM // 09:41

...considering that Twisting Trap blows apart every other trap but 1.

They could bring mirror back as elite with high ene usage/or recharge to prevent people abusing the skill

Sage Tylos · Jul 29, 2008, 04:58 PM // 16:58

Lightning Storm sounds cool but it would also be rather spammable with a 0 second recharge. The 25 energy cost can be virtually removed by combining [elemental attunement] and [air attunement]. The first will give you 12 energy back upon completion of the cast and the second will give you 8, so the spell would have a net cost of only 5 energy.

Ele's have 4 pips of energy regen, so that's 2 energy per second. If the spell has a 3 second cast, you've already regenerated 6 energy by the time the cast is completed. That in combination with double attunement means you've not lost any energy (assuming you don't get interupted or enchant stripped or anything.)

With no skill recharge time you could just keep casting that one spell over and over to have 3 lightning storms active at a time for an indefinite period.

Oh and let's not forget that since it's a 25 energy spell, [aura of restoration] and [glyph of restoration] would cause you to self heal so much that the monk would rarely have to tend to you.

Don't get me wrong, I play ele alot and I think it's a cool spell. I'm just saying that it might be too spammable if it has no recharge time.

/sign if a reasonable recharge time were added to it.

Some of those other skills look cool too. Wow @ the number of proph beast mastery skills that were excluded.

Edit: On the other hand, since it seems a tad underpowered alone, maybe it was ment to be used the way I just described?

upier · Jul 29, 2008, 05:08 PM // 17:08

Sweet baby Jesus - SOOOOOOO /signed!

Just because Air needs MORE flashy animations!

Kaida the Heartless · Jul 29, 2008, 06:44 PM // 18:44

Mirror would have to be the only skill on your bar for it to be balanced. I can think of a few skills that would insta wipe an entire HM Mob when used in conjunction with it (namely from the illusion line).

Honestly, it would have to be: Next hex only, Elite, Fail @ <9 Illu.

Maybe only allow mesmer hex, at least that would stop SS and MoPain.

Maybe have the duration stack (50%-100% of original duration)? not sure that would work...
Know what? Actualy Confusion might be more fun...

About LStorm, how about make it last 5 sec and PvE-only, the no-cooldown wouldn't really matter and with 2 sec casting time you could maintain 2 at a time. Becomes pretty weak actually, maybe either PvE-only or 5 sec nerf.

EDIT : just noticed the Mirror triger on every hexes instead of THE NEXT hex...
