What new spells would you like to see in the future?

[Mirander_1]

<div></div>With the last two expansions the devs have given each class at least one entirely new spell to use.  We're starting to close in on expansion number three, so I was wondering, what new spells do you want to get in the expansion?  To start it off, here's a few spells I'd like to have.1)  a Magic/ Lightning Based Nuke:  This is really the one combat spell I'd really like to see.  Lightning bolts seem fitting for a wizard, and having a nuke be a magic type rather heat or cold would help make wizards more flexible2) Teleportation:  KoS has seen a number of the spires being rebuilt, and some more recent events make it look like the druid rings are coming back to life, it seems like a good time to allow sorcerors and druids to teleport to those locations again3) Light: Ok, this is a complete fluff spell I'll admit, but still, what kind of wizard, or any mage for that matter, can't make a little ball of light that hovers over him?4) Featherfall:  It's unlikely that the devs will ever give us levitation, so how about a spell that just slows down a fall a bit rather than letting a person float over a long distanceSo those are my ideas.  Anyone else have any spell ideas they would want to see?<div></div>

<P>You know that named right in front of the Corsolander in Labs? I'd kinda like a last ditch ability like that, one that I could cast when I'm all but dead anyways that could just decimate everything in AOE range.</P> <P>But then we'd probably get labeled overpowered because a raid would bring an extra wizzy just for that backup alone...</P>

[IllusiveThoughts]

<P>I'd like to see the return of quested spells, and abilities that can only come from that.</P> <P>Wizards are fire/ice based so giving us magic based would give more flexibility but I dont expect many more than what we currently have.</P> <P>I'd like to see a draught line of spells start with a high power cost medium dmg high resistability and unmitigateable something along the lines of 80% resistability at m1 and 65% at adept 3. down to 50% at adept1.  (10% higher than m1 nukes currently) with a damage of just a little bit lower than ball of lava with a small range something like 2200-2500 at m1, with a 500 power cost and 2 second cast timer on a 12 second recast, and make it cold based.</P> <P>I'd also like to see an emergency root spell that is instant cast on a long recast (15 min to 1hour) and short duration (say 10 seconds) with a low break chance(less than 5%) and high resistability (10-30% higher than m1 roots currently are which is 30%)</P> <P>i'd like to see a return of the runes with regents being bought for a price from city merchants, and make them upgradable.  The runes would protect against fire/ice spell and mele damage.  (hey the masters of fire/ice should be able to protect themselves from it),  They should at minimum protect against 1K of each. If not make it work as an absorbtion, where the caster takes xx damage and x% of that is turned into power or health (draw strength from our elements)</P> <P>I want concussive changed so that the next spell cast generates 0 agro, increase its recast to balance it out.</P> <P>I'd like to be able to cast phoenixblade and amolisim raid wide.</P> <P>I'd like to see a spell that increases base spell damage for a short duration (like 30s) by 1-5% depending on quality.</P> <P>I'd like to see a offensive and defensive stance for mages,</P> <P>offensive removes the hitpoints from magi's sheilding, and adds disruption/subjigation, along with spell damage modifiers(5-8%), and hate gain modifyers (increased hate gain 25-40% more hate)</P> <P>defensive doubles the hitpoints from magi's sheild, and adds defense and avoidence and spell resistances, reduces hate gain(25-30%), while reducing spell dmg (large margin say 15-20%)</P> <P> </P> <P> </P> <P> </P>

I still miss Abscond from EQ1.   It sure would be nice to have a reverse CoH like we used too.<div></div>

[valkyrja]

All I want is for my wand to be able to do it's "melee" damage from range.  It makes no sense to me that it doesnt shoot out little bits of magic.  And cooler looking spells.  Ice Nova doesn't look nearly as impressive as it should.<div></div>

[Mareth]

I don't care what it is, a spell or whatever, but something that allows me to still do damage when I'm out of power.As we all know, mages aren't generally encouraged to walk up to the mob and hit auto-attack when they're oop. The healers get annoyed.<div></div>

[slippery]

Seriously, what Wizard out there doesn't learn feather fall as one of their first spells!<div></div>

<font size="3">Just give us some </font><font size="-1"> <font size="3">lure-based spells and im happy </font><b> </b></font><div></div>

[Mirander_1]

<div></div>Some people mentioned the idea of being able to do some sort of non power-based damage.  I've had an idea for something like that for a while, so I may as well throw it out.My idea is that weapons like wands and the mages' staves be able to double as both melee and ranged weapons.  put a merchant in the mage towers in the cities that sell some sort of mage-only "magic charge" to serve as ammo for it.  Have ammo with different resist types and it could make you more useful in situations where you're fighting an incounter that resisting a lot of your spells.  This might be more complicated than just making a ranged weapon that we can use, but I think it fits much better with the imagery asociated with magic users.There was also mention made of having quested spells.  I really like this for some spells; for instance, that's how I pictured being able to get teleportation, by getting a quest at the spire you want to be able to port to.  It would also have seemed fitting with spells like ice comet<div></div>

<DIV>I dont want more new spells, but I hope they'll add sorcerers-only "poison" (totoem / potion or whatever :p) that gives us spell proc - hate reduction / manatap / lifetap / debuffs ...etc just like poisons scouts can use.</DIV>

[hammerfil]

I would like to see a ice based spell like Ball of Lava with a shorter recast, by like 1 or 2 seconds. Or a ultra powerful based fire atack that has like a 10-15 min recast. I think we get alot of fire spells and i think they should be evened out with some more ice spells.

Didn't read previous replies so some of these may be repeats.. but this is what I'd like to see.-Ports to all major zones on the map.

I know theres no chance we'd ever get any of these, but its fun to think about and can't hurt to dream...<div></div>

Levitate is definatly something that I would lik to see in addition to ports.  I would even take it as a fun spell that didn't work in very many zones...I miss floating and flying around around.  It was just plain fun as well as functional. <div></div>

[Mirander_1]

<div></div>Wanted to reply to the couple of posts that say they're happy with what we have already.  Strange as it may sound, considering that I started this thread, I actually agree with you... mostly.  When it comes to our combat abilities, I'm fairly satisfied with what we have already.  Sure, there are a couple things I'd like to see, but they aren't that big of a deal to me.  For me, the problem applies not just to us, but to all classes; it's that the classes are really nothing beyond their combat skills.  There are very few non-combat spells in the game currently; that's the thing I would really like to see change in the game<div></div>

Hmm, don't have fusion yet, but I'll keep that trick in mind <img src="/smilies/3b63d1616c5dfcf29f8a7a031aaa7cad.gif" border="0" alt="SMILEY" />Haven't been grouping a lot lately (nobody wants the level 59 wizzie), but will experiment a bit with it and see how it turns out.I've been using it a bit while soloing if I'd get more adds than I can root and kill and they don't kill me with their first hit.

[Nethis]

A self-buff that makes you do an AoE when you die where the damage is proportional to your remaining power.  Takes a concentration point?  Maybe something like 15% damage of the remaining power.More aggro-free damage like Phoenix blade / ice shield / protofernoHave a spell that makes your next hostile spell get casted through your group-mate.  For example, instead of having to run up to the mob, i cast this spell and then fusion and it nukes everything in front of the MT?  Maybe give 10% of the aggro to the target and 90% to the wizard.  I like being able to stay outside of AoE range.Instant casting or non-interruptable nuke, 45 second recast.Self-buff that gives the wizard a chance to proc damage for 20 seconds for when we're out of power, 25% chance, 300-600 damage.Two "stances"A self-buff that increases the power cost, increases the casting time, and lowers the resistability of spells.A self-buff that lowers the power cost, lowers the casting time, and increases the resistability of spells.<div></div>

<P>Basically i miss alot fo the content from EQ1 as i felt the spells were far more versatile and fun to play, but in all seriousness i feel the dev's have nerfed the mage class generally to reduce their effectiveness in game play:</P> <P>Levitation - i say bring it back what wizard or master of arcane powers cant manage a small levitate ability, seeing as all i have to do is fall 1 metre in game and lose 3/4 life</P> <P>Fireshield - yes u get a DS with aa line but hey we again are master of fire shouldnt we be able to cover ourselves in the lovely stuff to give damage to others who try to hurt us</P> <P>Runeshield - bring back that lovely damage absorbtion ability that sint on a 4minute recast but maybe needs reagents, but most importantly can be cast midfight to bolster your falgging health</P> <P>Lightning - where is it, sunstrike looks more like a lightning attack but is fire based, i was to see bolts of energy surround my wizard and arch towards mob dealing lovely, lovely magic damage</P> <P>Shadowstep - yes bring it back, wizard have a life expectancy of 1/2 secs (especially in pvp) why should we not be able to move out of the way, again this type of spell has been the meat and bones of wizards thoughout the history of any form of D&D type game format</P> <P>Forced damage - yes seeing as a wizard class develops most of his study to the application of magical damage, shouldnt he be able to negate some of the resists players have as his power is concentrated and focused, as opposed to those dabblers like druids who use fire but dont understand it nor have the backing of Solusek Ro ; )</P> <P>Questing - bring quested spells back and epic weapons </P> <P>Syranath 70 wiz/sage Darathar server</P>

It would be better if all our Ice/fire spells could be either/or, so we get 2 versions on the same timer one ice based the other fire based so we can pick which version we have on our hot bar

My only request for the wizzy at this point is teleport.  It was the defining ability (along with Druid) that made the 1 diminsional nature of the wizard acceptable.  I could go anywhere, others had to walk (or hitch a ride).  It made the class (along with top dps)<div></div>

[Cowled_Wizard]

AA might be the way to go tho i imagine that it would be the last of an otherwise useless line while they create 2 more lines that are overall much more attractive to have. As it happens Illu i tend to like 'sensible' but i acknowlegde your sentiment in that i realise soe like pointless, worthless and down right insulting as their  top criteria for decision making <img src="/smilies/3b63d1616c5dfcf29f8a7a031aaa7cad.gif" border="0" alt="SMILEY" /> <P>Message Edited by Cowled_Wizard on <SPAN class=date_text>09-28-2006</SPAN> <SPAN class=time_text>04:33 AM</SPAN></P> <P>Message Edited by Cowled_Wizard on <SPAN class=date_text>09-28-2006</SPAN> <SPAN class=time_text>04:34 AM</SPAN></P><p>Message Edited by Cowled_Wizard on <span class=date_text>09-28-2006</span> <span class=time_text>04:35 AM</span>

I would like a teleport ability ala UO... Where you can port to anywhere you can see (across a canyon perhaps). Also, thing we should have something similar to a cross between levitate and safe fall, where we can glide down without taking damage. What powerful wizards in fantasy lore don't have the ability to defy gravity??

[Mirander_1]

<div></div>It looks like one of my requests is going to come true <span>:smileyhappy:</span>"<span>Next, we were off to another location in the Faydark which sparked many memories. Towering over our heads were the old Combine Empire wizard spires. We were told that they were currently in disrepair, but that we should expect for them to be operational in the near future and that once they are, the Wizards and Druids of the world will once more have teleportation spells at their disposal. This is wonderful news indeed for all of those from EQ Live who felt ill-equipped without their teleports."From OGaming's <a href="http://eq2.ogaming.com/data/4224%7EFaydwertour.php" target="_blank">EoF preview</a></span><div></div>

<DIV> <P>There are some great suggestions here!

Our ammo slot is annoyingly empty - fill it with these babies to shoot like arrows/bolts (don't have to be massive damage) from something like an auto ranged attack </P> <P><STRONG>Magic Shield/Ward</STRONG> - helps deflect good sized portions of high or multiple attack damage(the bane of a Wizard) for a short period - it would help to keep us alive a little longer in pvp and maybe give us a chance to get some spells off (providing we don't get resisted as usual..<img src="/smilies/283a16da79f3aa23fe1025c96295f04f.gif" border="0" alt="SMILEY" /> )- I can hear monks and rangers moaning about this though because their <EM>soft</EM> kills they love to get from squishies might be reduced in a small way ;D  jk ... </P> <P>Really I'd just like to see Wizzies get some form of useful defensive abilties to stay alive a little longer in a fight  </P> <P>In regards to other posters ideas:</P> <P>Blink sounds fun, and [expletive haxx0red by Raijinn] annoying in pvp for the opposition too <img src="/smilies/283a16da79f3aa23fe1025c96295f04f.gif" border="0" alt="SMILEY" /> So it gets my vote <img src="/smilies/283a16da79f3aa23fe1025c96295f04f.gif" border="0" alt="SMILEY" /></P> <P>How about an ability called <STRONG>FLASH </STRONG>that lets you run away at lightning speed from attackers LOL!</P></DIV>

<P>Light not only light !!  we need super light , a long distance more than any torch , a super shine for a group. </P> <P>a shocking flash, blind surrounding enemies for few sec without any hate (because enemies were blind,cant  see who did this)  this spell only affects the mob that has an eye. no damage for normal eyes mobs ,but big damage for flying eye ball monster</P> <P>maybe a powerful "magic shield" is more useful than the mez spell of a wizard. </P>

My list (including repeated items):- More Ice / magic (lightning) damage spells.- Wizard spire teleporting- Blink (shot distance port)- Way to cause ranged damage (non-mana wand, wizard throwing darts, etc)- Featherfall, just cuz- Knock (allows a chest to be detrapped and opened with high success change [base on spell lvl], 15 min recast time)- A couple fast casting, lower damage spells- More mage-only/stanted items (especially jewleries) and more stats equal to other classes' levels- Glowie Light Orb (Make it a lvl 65 fun spell to extend the fun line)- Make Ice Comet look more like what it hits for (a comet), not like a snowball as someone called it.- Some spell that can affect lesser epics so that we might have a chance to survive against them.**=I've only been able to solo kill two Epics, both under lvl 30 and both by the skin of my teeth.  Failed on Doomsquall, Emporer Fist and other 30s epics.  I can't root them, can't mez them, can't slow them, can't stun them... just get squished by them.  Conj classes can easily tank them, and while mezers would prob have a hard time w/ epics, they can at least mez them!  Mages need something that can affect epics!Frostwynn - lvl 70 Wizard on Mistmoore<div></div>
