<div></div><p>I have continued for months to believe that SOE would work on a revamp for the Illusionist class.  Many many great suggestions have been made on Character and Illusionist boards.  Many of these were not huge coding projects as much could be imported from a combination of other skills and animation/graphics.  Many great ideas were written about for a revamped direction and vision for this class.  With all that, I tried to keep in mind that ANY significant change would take much work for the developers and further play testing to ensure it fits into the rest of the game.</p><p>However, it has been probably 4 months since the many ideas were discussed and brought to the developers attention.  With many major revamps and now a large expansion my hopes of any significant change are dropping.</p><p>Sure they may get tweaks to existing stuns or damage output, but the belief that SOE will revamp the class with a new vision and exciting illusions is just folly and I doubt it will happen.</p><p>Unfortunately it has become the "lost" class in the game.  Which I still believe had and has fantastic potential.  It could be a exciting and deep class to play given the right vision and revamp, but don't hold your breath.   Instead, go play one of the many other classes that SOE has done a fantastic job with.</p><p> </p>

I already posted that they should give us "Illusion of AFK".   It's a spell that puts the "AFK" tag above our heads, but in reality we are just raiding.<div></div>

<div>i'd flip out if they gave us an illusion paired with a buff, like the ones in EQ1.... we are illusionists, we got a few illusion tricks like illusory allies and the personae, but why not let us have an illusion buff also?  we are supposed to get a new spell or two with each expansion, how hard could this possibly be?</div>

<div>If they gave us illusion spells they wouldn't be able to nerf it. </div><div> </div><div>Savante from group mana regen on damage > save a bit of mana on casting</div><div>epic feign death mez > illusory allies > nerf</div><div>Spellshield > nerf</div><div>whatever the 65 spell is called goes from teleport away with root > just teleport away so they can run back and kill you.</div><div> </div><div>See, isn't that so much more fun!</div>
