Issues noticed with SK class

[Pertax37]

<DIV>Unholy Steed - Great spell but one thing that needs fixed is when you go into water you cancel the spell.  Also when you try to sit while on the horse you get a spam of error messages, something to the affect you can not do that while on horse.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>Harm Touch - Another great spell but resisted often on tier 1 and 2 mobs.  It's very painful to finally have HT refreash just to use it for it to be resist by a blue tier 2.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>Grim Embrace - Ok spell but I wish it was more like EQ1 FD.  At least make the spell last longer and make it so you can revive at your leisure.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>Offering of Armdament *spelling* - Fizzles 100% of the time</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>Other things I would like to see added to SK class.  Where are our crappy skel pets?  Where are the crappy lifetaps?  I think these to things really defined SK's and from what I have seen in spell/ablity listings these spells aren't on there.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>Thoughts?  Comments?</DIV>

<DIV>Lifetap is at 28.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>Skeleton pets are in as well, but they are pets in the weakest sense.  We get a spell which curses the target and gives a chance the target will drop an essence.  This essence we can use to summon a pet that will attack 1 target and then disappear.  So essentially it is only a DOT spell with a skeleton graphic.  </DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>I have bug reported and posted before on crusader boards on Offering of Armament since it is a crusader ability.  I also mentioned how I wished Graven Embrace lasted longer and we could choose or revive moment.  However, at least they fixed it in this last patch since it was broken after upgrading to app2.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV> </DIV>

<DIV>Well for the most part i agree, HT needs a lower recast time, or more accuracy to compensate, our undeed steed need to at least... look undead, i dont think thats too much to ask, or at least make it app1 so i can say theres hope, maybe if i get my master 1 i can recieve a ghostly horse similar too the undead servant inthe temple of war (which i and many others who were looking forward to undead steed thought thats what the undead steed was supposed to look like) i wont even go into detail about the steed speed, just it needs to be increased just a tad, so people can know its acutally a horse and not a fancy walk animation. And about offering of armorment, it does work just you ned 87 faith not 85 like it stats, as soon as i got my faith too 87 i was able to cast no problem. </DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>So the only issues i have with shadowknight are the Undead steed looking pathetic, just change the look and ill be fine with that, and HT recast.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>Oh and i think all class change quests should have 1 weapon choice with the same stats of course but just different model weapon, not everyone is using one hand sword, soo that "Shadowblade of Zeal" was useless to me and anyone else whos been using great sword 2 hand since the start. I just think it would be better if they gave youa weapon choice at level 20 upon compleating that quest. The rewards should just be one of each weapon avilible to that class, but each weapon has the excat same stats, so it wouldnt matter which you chose. by stats i mean same magical stats. anyway, thats all i have to say.</DIV>

By the time I was able to use the Shadowblade, many better options were already available to me; I went with Skullcrusher. I would have been much happier with an upgraded graphic somehow, like a chestplate with vanguard look, or a helm with a skeletal look, etc... Even if it wasn't useful later on as a piece of armor, talk about a fashion statement!

<DIV>Graven Embrace last 10 secs with Adept 1 got the spell last night and tested out was able to lose agro several times. Was even able to use it to save group from total wipeout by using it and rezzing cleric with summoned stone after agro dropped.</DIV>
