Concept class: The Adept
THE ADEPT
The Adept is the child of the heavenly bodies. Devoting his life to the study of extraterrestrial phenomena the Adept seeks to attain the highest levels of understanding upon the nature of life, the universe and everything. By practising the Magics of a certain spatial object he directly channels its powers through himself granting him various ablities that work in conjunction with his insatiable hunger for knowledge. The Adept of the Sun worships and reveres the Sun, giver of life and also its biggest threat. The Sun Adept spends his time gazing into the fiery depths of the ever vibrant ball of radiant death. With his gained understanding of the energies that flow towards from the Solar nexus, the Adept can bring down the burning eyes of the heavenly sphere to set his enemies ablaze or to exhaust their very core of being with the unrelenting rays of the Sun. Should this not suffice, he may even beseech the Sun to send its benevolent rays to mete out fiery justice upon any and their ilk, should they oppose him. If the Adept instead chooses to delve into the mysteries of Tyria's companion, its Moon, he learns ways to work in the shadows dealing covert Magics and chanting forbidden and forgotten whispers of a late doom upon his rivals. The Moon Adept manipulates the energy of the living being through night and shade and drains a creature's essence slowly but surely all the while staying out of touch in the Moon's ever caring bosom. Those Adepts who look beyond the Solar system and its local objects to gain the inner thruths of the universal travelers, the Stars, are known as Stellar Adepts. Their field of expertise involves all the particles and waveforms that comprise the vastness that is the galactic void. Like the very stars, he plunges through the mistful dark to traverse and tread upon its many pathways. But he must be careful, lest he be cast over the edges of All that is and become a being of nothingness in the spiral non-existance of the Limbo. Should he succeed, he will bind under his will the stars and dance the never resting galactic dance. With his Stellar might he shall grow heavy on his enemies knocking them down or relocating himself out of harm's way. The Attributes SOLAR MAGIC No inherent effect. Skills related to channeling the powers of the Sun and its exhaustive and fiery forces become more effective with higher Solar Magic. LUNAR MAGIC No inherent effect. Skills related to studying the Moon and the night and its various degenerating and depleting ways become more effective with higher Lunar Magic. STELLAR MAGIC No inherent effect. Skills related to understanding the nature of the Stars and their elusive secrets that translocate and transcend become more effective with higher Stellar Magic. MACE MASTERY Your regular Mace attacks deal +1 damage for each rank in this attribute. In addition your chance to score a critical hit with a Mace is increased with higher ranks. DIVINATION (Primary) Whenever you become affected by a Cycle, you gain 7 health and 3 energy for each rank in this attribute. Cycles explained: The world of Tyria is known for its Seasons. But there are other, less obvious, cycles that the Adepts of the world have learned to tap into. These are known simply as the Cycles. There are four Cycles, the Solar, the Lunar, the Stellar and then lastly the Planetary cycle of Tyria. Even though the Adept lives of this world, of the world of Tyria, he is not interested in its teachings but instead looks beyond. He leaves the earth to the Elementalists whom he feels deserve every dirt drop they can acquire. Some say it is folly to discard the Planet that has given them life and land, but every Adept would be quick to wave aside such concerns and ask the heavens for their guidance. Because of this only the first three cycles are of any interest and effect to an Adept. The last, the Planetary, cycle gains them no benefit. Each cycle lasts 120 seconds, two minutes, during which time an Adept devoted to one aspect of his Magic can gain various additional side effects to his skills and spell. The effects of each skill in a certain cycle are described in the skill description. The Solar cycle is the domain of the Solarists. The Lunar of the Lunarists, or, as they are sometimes called, the Lunatics. Stellar cycles belong to the Stargazers, the Stellar Adepts. Although every Cycle lasts 120 seconds for every creature in the instance, each Adept can attune themselves to a personal cycle of their chosen object. This personal cycle can be maintained for 60 seconds with specific skills. When a personal cycle ends, the Adept is brought back to the governing domain of the time being. How to know what Cycle has dominance: On your effect monitor there is an icon representing the dominating Cycle that changes with each Cycle. If you enter a personal Cycle, another icon will appear to notify you of the fact. A Cycle only has any signifigance to a Primary or a Secondary Adept.

WOW!!! this would work AMAZINGLY with the Mesmer. Great creativitiy with the cycles, but you need to explain how they would be used, are they a skill, or is it according to season??? Awsome array of skills, except it needs to have 30 energy, not jsut 20. If you had only 20 and cast Horizon Blow for example, you would be down to 5 energy after only one skill. Also, Divination is kinda weird, i mean, you become effected by a cycle every 2 minutes, so you gain a TON of health and energy when a cycle begins on you??? I'd lower the health and energy gain, since it would be too overpowered. Something like:
Divination: Every time you are affected by a cycle, you gain 2 health for every level of Divination and 1 energy for every 2 levels of Divination. Now that would balance it out. Overall, great idea, just make a few adjustments and this would be my 3rd favorite prof (1:Mes, 2:Paragon, 3:Adept) /signed -Dean |

Okay, figures I should start replying to my own threads since my original posts are such utter carp. SO here goes:
A cycle is a global phenomenon that repeats every two minutes in the instance. The first Cycle is the Solar cycle, it lasts two minutes during which time Sun Adepts gain bonuses to their Solar magic skills as told in the description. After the Solar cycle ends, a Lunar one begins granting bonuses to Lunar magic users. Then the next in line is the Stellar cycle after two minutes again. The last cycle is the Planetary cycle, but it gives no bonus to any skills. Any Adept can also enter a Personal cycle with the use of the Adept of the Sun/Moon/Stars skill. This Personal cycle lasts at the most a full minute during which time the Adept ignores the global Cycle, and gains the benefits of his chosen line. So if the global Cycle was a Stellar cycle but the Adept activated the skill to turn his Personal cycle to a Solar cycle, he wouldn't gain any benefit to his Stellar skills but to his Solar skills instead. Naturally. Also, when a Personal cycle ends, the Adept adopts again the dominating global Cycle. Considering the health and energy bonus granted by Divination. At the most an Adept can gain 112 health and 32 energy every 60 seconds when he activates the Adept of the Sun/Moon/Stars skill. Of course, since a Personal cycle lasts at the most only 60 seconds and then it is disabled for 120 seconds, it will take some true effort to try produce this health and energy gain every minute. At the least I feel that the health gain is warranted. 112 every 60 seconds is not imbalanced. Maybe 32 energy is though.. |

definetally, 32 is WAY too much, more like 10-15 or something like that. Thx for the explanation, great idea, and the cycles seem awsome. |

Not bad at all. It's actually quite good, compared to others. But personally I would want guild wars to have more of a magic/melee class. But this class would diffinetly be GREAT to have as a secondery proffesion. And like Dean said, works great with a mesmer.

you need to change the name of Divination to something else, it was already used by LightningHell way before you posted this, come up with something more original(use a thesaurus). Also, on MoonGlow, you need to change it so that the enregy goes to allies in the area, and limit how many get the energy, such as 1...3 or something like that, other wise, with all party members, its just too overpowered

Perhaps someone forgot that all abilities and magics are gifts from the Gods. I can understand that it would be oriented with cosmic bodies, though I would have called the class an Oracle, like the one who directs you "Closer to the Stars". But reguardless, the Gods birth magic, not the heavenly bodies, and nothing thus far has mentioned any source of power attributed to cosmic bodies.
Beside that, many of the attacks are very simular to elementist attacks, of which we really don't need another variation, and many support skills are simular to Paragons. Group Damaging is covered by 2 classes and group buffing is covered by 2, perhaps a less crowded field of influence should be considered. Some interesting stuff, but cosmic powered magic still needs to be gifted from a god, perhaps the new one, and the skills should be a litte more original and functional. The 2 minute cycles in which the skills are more effective may be inventive, but it is totally disfunctional, and if you want to get techical about your cycles, there are 4 in which they would gain no bonuses to any of their skills for 2 minutes during planetary cycle. And even with skills in 2 attributes, the will only gain special effects on one or the other half of the time. It would be different if they where constantly shifting cycles, and the Adept had key in a spell quickly during frequent cycles, but 2 minute cycles don't function with cooperative play, and for that matter, they don't work well for spiking either. The most important cycle is the one where your teammates are ready. P.S. If elementist is bound to planetary magics, than why can he summon meteors from space?
