Wooden Skin pictures

<DIV>Ok.. this does not really look liked "wooden skin" .. and it does not even look good IMO, but here they are.</DIV> <DIV>Also it does not last very long, and it goes away when you zone..

<DIV>So...Monks get to look like a tiger....VERY COOL...and I get the dookie man skill....great....thanks guys.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>Drex</DIV>

[Rontgen]

I have found Feign Death to be more of a "fun" spell/ability than the Dreadnaught Kata. Does not look like Wooden Skin will bring much to the table either.<p>Message Edited by Rontgen on <span class=date_text>12-16-2004</span> <span class=time_text>07:25 AM</span>

<DIV>That is horrible, I will never buy that so called fun spell. COuld they not have thought of something more "Fun"???</DIV>

Every time I see something like this makes me wish I had did monk instead of bruiser more and more.

[Dasi]

<DIV>This is just [expletive ninja'd by Faarbot]ing rediculous... Come on SOE we are looking like your red headed step child right now.</DIV>

[ganjookie]

Hmm yeah, our 40 fun spell is Bantha poodoo. Can we get a black panther form or something. Barksin, should be a low level mage type spell...not a bruisers.

[benisbor]

<DIV>This really looks terrible. I mean . . . awful. Sony -- what he heck are you thinking? </DIV>

[Varg_MM]

<DIV>Actually, I think they were heading in the right direction, just stopped too soon.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>Tiger works for monk, if for no other reason that it makes half the stupid crap they say in Street Fighter make sense.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>But for bruiser, I'd like to see something like the above, but instead of poopbark, make it bands shiny steel. And if they really wanted to see some happy bruisers, make 'em shake the screen when they jump.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>Just seems more 'bruiser-esque' than a black panther, as suggested above. </DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>Just my two bits.</DIV>

[Pauleh]

<DIV>if it was more defence i could understand</DIV>

[psubull]

<DIV>For god's sake, why couldn't they give us something cool, like a spell that turns the graphic of whatever we're using into a barstool, or broken glass bottle.  I'd root for that </DIV>

[Southe]

<DIV>Well, enough of us petitioned for them to fix the graphics on our AQ armor, i think they will eventually fix this as well.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>Id like to see somethin like a colossus look, hopefully lvl 50 iron skin style is  better.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>Then again, a black pather for our lv40 fun spell would  be cool too, since almost all other jobs get some sort of shape changing spell.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>Krace</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>Iksar Bruiser</DIV>

[Corasik]

<DIV>EQ1's fearplane golems would make good 'fun' bruiser looks, Fright, Dread and Terror. Ok, scaled down abit, to about the size of an Ogre. But 'Terror' would make a great steel skin 'fun' spell. </DIV>

[Kwonryu_DragonFi]

<DIV>The lvl 50 Iron Skin Style will probably be metal skin and look splendid! <img src="/smilies/3b63d1616c5dfcf29f8a7a031aaa7cad.gif" border="0" alt="SMILEY" /></DIV>

[fur]

<DIV><FONT size=1>Well one thing that occured to me that is kinda strange, we get alot of fire skills, fiery proccs fire kicks  etc etc however fire fluff is the domain of zerks not bruisers which strikes me as kinda odd.</FONT></DIV> <DIV><FONT size=1>All this skin business feels abit like they just threw in something as an emergency before launch and this seems even more likely when you see how badly woodskin is implemented.</FONT></DIV> <DIV><FONT size=1>I personally aint to keen on getting yet another animal form but would rather see them fix our skins so that they actually look decent.</FONT></DIV>

No thanks Id rather not look like Collusus(tm) from Xmen. I think they have the right idea for us with the monks tiger, but give us an evil version.

[Bo]

<DIV>I just got this today, and its a huge disapointment.   I was expecting there to atleast be a small ac increase with using the skill, wardens wolf form among others I know adds ac. But the real kicker for me wasnt that I look like a rolled around in mud, or even that there is absolutely no statistical reason to use this kill,  what gets me the most is that this minor illusion that grants no hp, no ac, no stats or resists has like a 6 minute duration, and a 10 minute recharge.  Who deemed that at level 40 looking like I fell in a mud puddle is so powerful that I cant be allowed to have the effect on at all times?  Why can wardens, mystics, furies etc get illusions THAT INCLUDE STAT ENHANCEMENTS, at half the level of our fluff spell, that are maintaneable indefinitly, while we can only keep our illusion on half of the time?  That just makes absolutely no sense to me and is what Im the most upset about.   I can live with the fact that our wooden skin looks nothing like wood, and has nothing beyond cosmetic purpose, if I could atleast use it for cosmetic purposes and maintane the illusion for more then six minutes at a time.   </DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>If you change nothing else about this skill, PLEASE atleast make the duration longer then the recharge so that we can actually use it.</DIV>

[Godha]

Wow that has to be the saddest thing I have ever seen, being a person on the path of the Monk and just reacently have decided to betray Qeynos to be a Bruiser it really makes me upset we get greasy poop skin and Monks get sweet tiger form. If it were up to me I would drop the entire "wood" skin and replace it with a flip animation at the VERY least but if I had my choice I would have fiery fists or something that increases running speed to that of at least what the Palain/Shadow Knight got.

[Southe]

<DIV>Fiery hell hound sounds better, but in all honesty, i wont even waste the gp to pick this spell up til its changed to somethin worth casting.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>Krace</DIV>

[Sheperd]

<DIV>/Agree thats not very well thought out. It really angers me to hear about the duration/recast time. Thats just plane out rediculous. Really I almost like the way it looks and remember that looks are all personal preference =P. But it does suck not to have a single enhancement and it especially sucks not to be able to keep the illusion up. Pretty weak imo.</DIV><p>Message Edited by Sheperd_b on <span class=date_text>12-21-2004</span> <span class=time_text>09:21 AM</span>

[Zalxd]

<DIV><FONT size=3>Well, The graffic is plain horrible. But I would be able to have fun with it, I mean its just that bad that it would be funny to turn into poop man. However, being that we are Bruisers, I feel somthing along the lines of making our character bulk out (big muscles and the like) would be a more fitting fluff spell. Some kind of model change, how ever I know it would be difficult due to the incredible lvl of customisations I feel as though it would be do able. Atleast a size increase if nothing. </FONT></DIV>

[Centurion]

<DIV>Ahhh a size increase, that'd be nice... make us twice as big as normal or something.</DIV>

[Krelfeari]

<DIV>I think for our fluff spell we should get a "drunken stance" since brawlers are afterall caught in bar fighters often enuff, and they do use martial arts of sorts so a stance is not far fetched.....it would be several drunken boxing style stances from some of jackie chan and jet li's famous flicks highlighting the awesome style. </DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>I personally think this would own but i guess a model morph could be ok as well.....but....i rather prefer seeing myself kick as to lookin like some lame tiger....a bruiser would tear a cat to shreds and pound its broken body into the dirt.....not wanna look like it.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>Just IMO </DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>            p.s. Lucan for Pres!</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>Oh, one other idea i had for brawler focusin around drunken stance idea is a buff that lasts 12 hours like thundering fists and brawlers stance and such but does nothing at first, only works if u have special alchoholic beverages in ur activatable slots. Activate it and u get a damage and defense buff as if u increased your pain tolerance and became encouraged by the alchohol to attack with more force. The increase u get from the alchohol depends on how much u use and the qaulity of it....5cp alchohol does not do what 1sp alchohol does.....and there is a cap somewhere respectively.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>just ideas.....</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>           again, p.s. Lucan for Pres!</DIV>

[Lord Hor]

Hmm, really depressing pic...At least I know now that all the effort to betray Lucan was not useless... <img src="/smilies/8a80c6485cd926be453217d59a84a888.gif" border="0" alt="SMILEY" />Dark Elf Monk, hehe...

[SinR]

that picture alone makes me want to be a monk

[D]

<DIV> <DIV>I don't want my bruiser to look like an animal - I enjoy watching myself fight too much. :smileysad:</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>That said - I also don't want to look like Bruisy the Christmas poo.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>Metal skin like T2 would be awesome though if it can be pulled off.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>Drunken stance making us stumble everywhere would be fun too - or something making us float full time like our first fluff spell at the end does.</DIV></DIV>

[m@dbomb]

I think a fun spell would be something we could use to effect other players. I'm tired of being made to dance. I think it would be cool if we could knock down other members of our group. This to me would be fun as I like to roleplay my character. Dancing is not something he likes to do and it gives me the [FAAR-NERFED!]s every time it happens >(

[Lizardling]

<DIV>What would be awesome for wooden skin style- treants... it would be so great but stupid at the same time, and at least it would be real wood instead of it looking like you were sitting under a giant after it had a bad burrito.</DIV>

[Sti]

<DIV>hmm that spell is pretty weak.  looks like a waste of money.</DIV>

[warchild]

<DIV>It's partly Freeport related if you look around at Freeport and there class's fun spells you will see that soe </DIV> <DIV>made the people of freeport out to be low life scum. Freeport is way more dirty then it should have been.</DIV> <DIV>other stuff points at freeport low lifes ex: This bruiser level 40 fun spell make us look like crap, Assassins pet is a Rat. Freeport has</DIV> <DIV>next to no colors as where to Qey has nice clean colors. IMO thieves, pirites, mafia back in the old day had alot nicer stuff and places </DIV> <DIV> then the reg people who worked 40 hour weeks. so why does soe make freeport people look like lowlife crap?</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV> Ive seen alot of awesome looking Fun spells latey and 75% of them come from Qey side. ask a free port member what they got and</DIV> <DIV> they always say junk that looks like crap. </DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV> Now for those who ask why im still in freeport, well my eq1 guild picked starting city and server a few days before the game came out, not</DIV> <DIV> knowing we would be living in mudsville, and we not starting over now.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV>

[Grift]

I honestly think this is the worst fun skill in the whole game. Please give us something remotely cool like lion form. Turn me into a stone golem if possible or one of those guys on the beach in the Feerott. That would be excellent.

[warchild]

<P>Got this today thinking maybe it would like better than the ss.  NOT</P> <P>This has got to be the worst GFX i have ever seen in a game and there was no way to click it off. I had to zone to get it off.</P> <P>Dev's please take the monks 40 funspell and just change the color to black and grey. anything would be better.</P>

[Kylins]

<P>Spell is horrible.... doesnt look like the picture though... for me anyways.</P> <P>Even on max resolution I show no woodgrain or anything, it just looks like I walked out of a sandstorm. Easiest solution would be to change it to Stone Skin, and just use the grafic from the summoner spell Petrify, which I think looks pretty cool.</P> <P> </P> <P>As for comments on the 'lack of color' in freeport... Its a desert city, or atleast it used to be... Now its in a savanna, there aint gonna be a lot of pretty plants lol..Not to mention is is equal parts city and fortress. The citizens 'are' a bunch of low lifes, because Lucan recruits by tempting the evils of the refugees.  The only thing keeping the place somewhat united is Fear of Lucan's reprisal.</P> <P>I honestly think Qeynos is the worst city, every npc is sickly sweet.. its disgusting lol... I swear there are atleast 10 quests to help some love sick elf talk to his girl. Its just too nice, and completely lacking of any of the humor you find in freeport.</P> <P> </P>

[Redbed]

<P>"The only thing keeping the place somewhat united is Fear of Lucan's reprisal"</P> <P>Are you #$(*ing Joking me?  That wuss couldnt fight his way out of a brothel.  Why do you think he put his Fortress up above where we couldnt reach it.  Guarantee, him or his counterpart strumpett step one foot out of their homes and they will be Dusted faster then Draculea in a Tanning Salon.</P> <P>No seriously, whats he gonna do?  Speak Harshley at me?  Last time I was face to face with the little nancy boy the only thing I heard from him was "Please Please Please stop hitting me".  Anyway.</P>

[Kitos]

Who is this "Draculea" you speak of? <div></div>
