What adjustments to current skills would you like to see?

[Neutrone]

Let’s say we are just talking pve here;

I like most of op’s ideas, I’d only disagree with mages doing that point blank aoe push like shield and gale
I hate that effect, it’s non condusive for team work
Swapping the push effect for stun would be nice

But I think any pull (suck) type effects should be better for the war class imho

Also if the new trend is that our bleed & other effects are not going to work on bosses, the we should have even more crowd control effects such as
Curse should gain the ability to charm
&
Auto attacks should gain a rotting flesh type effect like the immo staff or the hex fire

Smurfs also lost some relevance with the loss of proc stacking, and now new bosses are immune to dot ( which makes the skratch gun worthless for some bosses)

We need to gain some relevance as mob destroyers

Just spitballing whilst imbibed

I appreciate the detailed post btw.

Yeah shield pushing has always been a terrible enhancement/sub-skill. I thought maybe adding stun to that push would make it a better enhancement but completely removing the push effect and replacing it with a stun effect sounds better.

Charm for curse seems like a great idea actually. To keeps things from being OP I guess it would have to be charged and has a 25% chance of charming a mob.

I only worry about the auto attack thing you mentioned cuz I feel like that would be OP for PvE but it would boost our role as mob melters, but hopefully the newer weapons have a similar effect. I personally just can't imagine a new staff beating skratch staff in effectiveness right now unless it has a proc like immo staff
