Ugh hey dryad can you help me at school tomorrow with coming up with a class Im gonna have alot of trouble. If you could can you meet me in A building.

[Philote]

Could you put abilities like I do? Cause I want to know about most of those abilities. For the duel wielding one, when you move past two blades are the rest controlled telekinetically?

Wall of Blades: The blade dancer removes her offensive ability for a few moments to create a wall of defense around her.

Dance of the Spectre: The blade dancer slightly hovers over terrain, slightly increasing movement. Allowing abilities such as walking on water and momentarily hovering in open air.

Unending Dance: Allows the blade dancer to use the effects of two dances at once. (Assuming that you have to switch between dances. If not this would either create special combo between uses two dances or reduce cost.)

[Philote]

Marv, you needed more ability ideas right?

Singing Blade: The spellblade's sword virbates with magical energy, making it hum. This does area of effect magic damage to enemies nearby, and allowing the spellblade to hit with a weaker magical strike if his melee strike misses.

[Celadon's Penultimate]

 Nice.

And I should work to improve Phasma...

Perhaps Mediumistic Transfiguration? The ability to superimpose the image of a deceased person over one's own face, giving the appearance one has shapeshifted into that person (includes voice, mannerisms, etc)?

[Celadon's Penultimate]

I think I'll edit her profile soon.

[Philote]

You need some more combat abilities I think, or passives that help you in combat at least.

[Zaleramancer]

I need to know more about each ability. That's the only way I can judge if it's acceptable or not. I also need to know costs for each ability in Chi.

So at level 20 you can wield six swords at once?

Well since no one said anything in half an hour changes are a go.

[Marvelous Miscreant]

Or maybe nobody has had a chance to look at it. You have to be patient.

[Marvelous Miscreant]

Honestly, Touch of the Reaper is a one-hit kill move with no cooldown. That's defiantly got to be edited even if its for "weak" enemies.

[Celadon's Penultimate]

You realize we only go to lvl. 20, right?

[Mik_Hael]

No cooldown? ...darn it, forgot to put that in. One sec.

[Marvelous Miscreant]

either way....A one hit kill move isn't really a skill anyone should have.

[Philote]

Marv, did you see the spellblade ability ideas I posted?

[Marvelous Miscreant]

Yes, I did.

[Philote]

What about that Chaos point thing you were talking about? Such as Skill X infects you with Y points of chaos and when you reach Z points you can't use skills until you are able to reduce points.

[Mik_Hael]

For Jester, yes.
