Ethermage
Ethermage (Formerly Hierophant)
The original Ethermages were not planeswalkers - they were metamagicians, investigating the science of magic. It was that small clique which discovered the different planes, and how to traverse between them. The Ethermages have gradually changed meaning since then. Ethermages now still study the arcane arts of their predecessors, but they also focus on planeswalking. Although permanent, stable connections to other planes, for example the Mists, require days or even weeks to produce a gateway, temporal links between uncomplicated planes (such as the Ethereal plane and the alternate Time plane) can be created at will by ones who study as an Ethermage. Profession-specific insignias: Planeswalker’s Insignia +10 Physical AL Episcopal’s Insignia +10 Elemental AL Gives protection from Light/Dark/Chaos damage. (reduces by 3) Arcanist's Insignia AL +5 (When you are under the effect of a Symbol) AL +5 (When you are under the effect of two Symbols) AL +5 (When you are under the effect of three Symbols) AL +5 (When you are under the effect of four Symbols) Etherwalker's Insignia AL +7 (When you are Ethereal or Phased Out) (Phased Out is pointless, but whatever...) AL +7 (When an ally within radar is Ethereal or Phased Out) AL +7 (When a foe within radar is Ethereal or Phased Out) New Inscriptions: Spellcasting Weapon Inscriptions: "I Am Unreal.": +5e when Ethereal Martial Weapon Inscriptions: "Fight On Two Planes": Damage -10-15%, can attack Ethereal foes Focus Item/Shield Inscriptions: "I Have Other Sources": Recieved nonphysical damage -5 (20%) "Shelter From Planes": Recieved damage while Ethereal -5...10 Focus Item Inscriptions: "Confidence In Mana": AL +5 when Energy is above 50% "Spending Is Good": AL +5 when Energy is below 50% Shield Inscriptions: "I Stay Real": Decreases Ethereal and Phased Out condition by 2...4 seconds (20%) Weapon Modifiers - Prefixes: Martial Weapons: Channeling: Energy Regeneration +1 while Ethereal or Phased Out. Spellcaster Weapons: Planar: Increases Ethereal and Phased Out condition you inflict by 20%. Channeling: Energy Regeneration +1 while Ethereal or Phased out. Weapon Modifiers - Suffixes: Spellcaster/Martial Weapons: of Reality: Decreases foe-caused Ethereal and Phased Out conditions by 20%. Symbols: The Hierophant inscribes magical runes on the floor. Cannot be interrupted by non-spell interrupts, such as Savage Shot and Distracting Shot. However, can still be interrupted by Power Spike and the like. In short: All skills that interrupt "Skills" do not work on Inscriptions, but skills that interrupt "Spells" do. Phase Out: Remove from reality for a limited duration. You cannot do anything when you are phased out (including normal movement unless otherwise specified), and you do not regain energy and health; however you cannot be targeted, cannot be attacked, et cetera. You drop all objects that you are currently holding, and lose all enchantments and hexes. They are reapplied (with their current duration) after the Phasing out. I ripped off from Magic: the Gathering. :P Ethereal Form: Transfer to Ethereal plane for a limited duration. You cannot attack nonethereal beings in this form, nonelemental or chaos attacks fail, and you are immune to all damage except elemental, holy, dark, and chaos damage. All Physical damage you deal in this form becomes chaos damage. When your Energy reaches 0 in this state, you die. You are considered a Spirit while in Ethereal Form. You can walk through non-Ethereal characters while in Ethereal form. When you are an Ethereal character, you lose all natural regeneration. Ether Potency: You gain 1 Energy Regeneration per Inscription you are affected by (maximum +ERegeneration determined by ranks in PA). You gain 0...4 Energy whenever a creature within your danger zone becomes or stops becoming Ethereal or Phased Out. (2 Elites) Maximum +Energy Regeneration: L0: 0 L1...4: 1 L5...8: 2 L9...12: 3 L13...16: 4 Energy gained for planar traversal: L0: 0 L1...5: 1 L6...9: 2 L10...14: 3 L15......: 4 Signet of Mana {E} 2c, 15r Signet Gain 10...23 energy.

Wow, thats really cool. Playing a character like this would make the game maybe 1000000x more fun. I mostly play mesmer, just because i like the skills and everyone says its a challenge. If this profession came out i would imediatly switch to it. Great job. Also, I can't believe you put this much time into thinking of it. If you sign a concept class then...

Im not scared of the length
 Im scared of its completeness, because im gonna rip apart your primary and you did so much work. Ok. Built in evasion and spell failure. Thats just....overpowered. And for an ethermage wheres your energy management? Its on skills all over the place! I think Divination needs to be changed heavily. "For every 4 points on Divination, gain 1 energy for every failed attack or spell. For every 2 points in Divination, you gain +15 health while in Ethereal Form." Making a lvl 16 divination give you 4 points per failed spell/attack. Then you should add skills that make spells or attacks fail. Now my reasoning why The ethereal form makes physical attacks fail. Your primary attribute is now linked to your ethereal form and can be fed by physical attackers. At this moment, the ethereal form can be used by ANY primary, since its not linked to the profession. In fact an Elementalist with Glyph of Concentration will be much better than an Ethermage primary because you didnt link your primary to your character class's gimmick. The way i set up divination, an Ethereal elementalist will not be able to feed its energy as much as a primary Ethermage. The primary class should ALWAYS be better than a secondary in what its gimmick is. Like Necros. A secondary necro cant ever be as good as a primary necro in raising minions, with exception of the ritualist, but thats only specifically for minion bombing (not requiring strong minions). Look at Rangers. Ranger skills are very expensive. An elementalist COULD use the skills, but it wont have the runes to make its attack as powerful as a ranger. Mesmer. without fast casting, you cannot be as a good as a primary mesmer in interrupts. So yes...link your gimmick to your primary attribute ^^ ------------- I like how you came up with counter-attacks. ^_^ Last edited by lyra_song; Sep 28, 2006 at 06:16 PM // 18:16.. |

But your idea sounds pretty good too, but quite useless in PvP since they wouldn't attack you if you were in Ethereal form. Hell, Necromancers don't have a good PvP primary, so... I used the % spell/attack failure because that was the original PA for the concept class. I don't mind people ripping stuff apart. |

Good point on pvp. Perhaps it could be "For every spell/attack that you cause to fail." since your skills affect allies too. |

In my opinion, the PA shouldn't be really related to energy management (if I don't change the skill positioning by attribute) since I already have skills related to energy all over the place. Basically I have each attribute have energy management skills that relate to the general concept of the line.
But, since I'm thinking about dumping a lot of the EManagement skills to the PA (and rename it), I might just as well stick some EManagement (or something related to energy) on the PA. "For every spell or attack that you cause to fail" still is very undesirable for PvP. Since this class, as I glance over it, has a lot of Inscriptions/Runes, should I do something related to Energy with Inscriptions/Runes? (Hard to think about Inscriptions - Planar is a lot easier...)

Here is some of my thinking....
I still feel the biggest attraction of this class is the Phase out. I would make the phase out skill short lasting, usually 1...3 seconds, with about 10 energy and 15s recharge time. Player would need a more skillful use to well time the phase out in anticpation of oncoming spike. Quick and somewhat spamable. For Ethreal form, since there are lots danager associate with that, could be longer, more like a stance, lasting about 8...16 seconds with 45 second recharge and 5-10energy cost. One thing I would also make is have it where in Ethreal form, you suffert -1 to -3 (depend on the skill) energy degen. And like enchantment, allow you to turn on/off while you are in that form anytime, as well as add that you can not be heal by healing spell at this time. The PA might change to a thing call Ethrealore (or some other fancy name), where for every rank, you would gain 1 HP and Energy regen while phase out or in Ethreal form, up to max of 5 arrows. This allow you to neglate the negaive energy degen (which could be very dangerous for a low-energy none-primary class), and allowing you to recover better while in those form. Also to offset the low armor of this class. The phase/ethreal become more than just escape from danger, but also way to recover. Skills in the primary would better aid the use of the phasing out and ethreal form, such as allow you to heal while in those state, stay longer, move faster, etc. Other skills idea would have it where you phase out like you hand and into your enemy's body to squeeze their heart, things like that. Which means add more armor-neglating touch skills in there, making them the new Toucher. (also touch energy stealing/burning/blocking) I still have a personal bias against Runes, as I think they would fit better on another class than with the overall theme of a planar walker.. but that is just me... |

Okay, I'm going to revamp the attributes somewhat. Attribute: Main (Side) Arcane: Inscriptions (Planeswalking) Planar: Planeswalking Vital: Healing (Planeswalking) Which means full revamp on primary, major revamp on Arcane, minor revamp on Vital. Good thing I have West Side Story and as such can stay after school till 6~ish before performance. |

It counts skills in all Hierophant attributes then divides that total by 4.

Primary attribute decision:
I've decided upon making it EManagement, but it can come in a variety of forms. The current one: Make Ethereal creatures have -4 Regeneration, and add regen when Ethereal/Phased Out. Other 1: Gain energy for every time someone planestravels (within aggro bubble0. Other 2: Evasion chance, and energy gain with evasion Other 3: Make the length of Phased Out and Etherealness longer. |

Its good but I'm not liking the remove from reality idea, whats the benefit really?
you don't regen, and u can't attack, maybe u should change it a bit because the only benefit I see is that u can't be attacked but without the ability to regen ur pretty much a sitting duck just prolonging your death. because most people would use it at low health and since u cannot move, u only get to wait until u come back and are killed. either make it so that u can move, (maybe attack) or regen a bit (not alot or it would be nerged instantly lol) other than that seems good to me except Lyras suggestion that there should be better energy management which I agree with Edit: Sorry for double post my comp must hate me, Mods do what u wish with number 2 lol |

Wow
Oh Even if it was underpowered id play this just for the Phasing! I mean I love to screw around with assassin Warps so this would be awesome. Imagine the Annoyance factor some of these skills would pose. A Ethermage/Assassin. Poof in Boom Effect, Phase and Run. Then when you un-phase, Poof Again.
I seriously Hope that Arenanet takes a good hard look at this. It Looks really really Fun. |
