  Heres my skill o-o
  
  Skill Name: Mash
  Type: Ranged Attack
  Weapon: Bow (primary) and Sword (secondary)
  Description: With the power of Mana, the sword becomes highly condensed, so condensed that its dangerous to wield it. However with a bow, firing it becomes possible. Now that its ranged, its destructive power knows no limits. However the sword will be destroyed once fired.
  
  Its like Spear of Light but has much higher splash

  Or
  % x (Average Damage) x 10
  
  Examples at r1 Mash and 80% Balance
  
  230 Gladius damage
  350% x ((((63-52) x 0.8) + 52) + 0) x 10 = 2128%
  
  222 Broadsword damage
  350% x ((((77 - 0) x 0.8) + 0) + 30) x 10 + 30 = 3206%
  
  Clean Gladius damage
  350% x ((((32-15) x 0.8) + 15) x 10) + 12 = 1421%
  
  Clean Dagger
  350% x ((((9-2) x 0.8) + 2) + 25) x 10 = 1141%
  
  Clean 2-Handed Sword
  450% x ((((50-25) x 0.8) + 0 ) + 12 ) x 10) = 2025%
  
  215 Silver Dunstin Knight Sword

  Backstory
  
  Semin could only sigh as countless, better archers were desiging skills and getting them approved. He had an idea but no one else shared his interest... Well that until he met Saso. Saso was a talented warrior and him and Samin were going to create the ultimate skill. They wanted to take the power from smash and the range of magnum and fuse them togehter. They started by trying to fire a waepon with a bow. All tests fail due the weapon being to heavy for the bow to fire, the only weapon that worked was a dagger but it didn,t even fly 2m. They were stuck. However an interested Mage by the name of Sean found them and offered to help. Together Mash would be born....to be continued

  First Skill: Fury
  "Creates multiple explosions that obliterate countless Fomors in a wide circumfrence"
  Basically,it's an AoE skill.
  Giants cant use it (Unless Mabi screwed up and made Giants Mages)
  
  Second Skill: Twin Vivid Arrows
  "Monsters are closing in on you,hurry!Arrows are fired in pairs of 2 and obliterate any Fomor within range"
  Im addicted to AoE >.>
  Again,Im in favor of Elves/Humans with Range...
  Also similar to Arrow Revolver with the excepton of Elves being able to use it.
  
  Third: Ferinn:Guided Warrior
  "You must guide yourself.I lend you my powers for now.-Unknown Being"
  Not an attack but more of a stat boost skill.
  Increases Max Stam,Max HP,Max MP,and everything else.
  Only can be used once per day Erinn time and can be used by EVERY race this time! :D
  
  Edit: For the duration of Ferinn,you will slightly glow :D

  Mana cutter
  
  User casts a cutting discus formed from mana and subsequently throws it at the targeted monster. Can be charged up to 5 times. Every charge allows the discus to return back to the caster which only then allows the user to throw it again. This means casting speed is solely dependant on the distance between the target and the user.
  
  Ranking the skill increases the damage and speed of the discus. At rank 9, there is a small chance that the discus will hit the target once more. At rank 5, this number rises to 2 but the chance is even lowered. At this point, there will still be a chance of the discus haveing a return hit of 1. The chances return hit occurs one after the other (if a 2 return hit chance fails, the 1 return hit chance will happen. It's still possible that there won't be a return hit at all). At rank 1, the number of return hits rises to 3.
  
  Ideally at rank 1, the chance of 1 return hit will be 30%, the chance of a 2 return hit will be 15% and the chance of a 3 return hit will be 3%. The speed of the discus will be 30% faster than a rank f discus.

  1. Rain of Thunder and Meteor Storm are both good advanced magic candidates.
  2. Bow Mastery and possibly Crossbow Mastery are actually coming out in the next major update.
  3. Sacrifice and Light Sword are good Paladin active candidates.
  4. Silence Shot would complete Mabinogi's combat triangle while giving Archers more flexibility.
  5. Arrow Rain would also increase ranged flexibility while providing some insurance.
  6. Several skills face balance issues.
  
  All/r1,
  
  Rain of Thunder
  Damage: (Equal to player's Thunder rank x 0.7)
  Range: 2000
  Area of Effect: 800

  Requires: Trinity Staff
  
  Rain of Thunder summons a number of Thunderbolts which drop from the sky randomly within a 800 unit radius.
  
  The damage, hit-count and splash is equal to the number of charges and the rank of the skill. Each Thunderbolt and it's rank parallel the skill Thunder.
  
  If the skill used while the player is underneath a summoned rain cloud, maximum damage is increased by 50%.
  
  Meteor Storm
  Damage: 600-800
  Range: 2500
  Splash Radius: 1200

  Requires: Trinity Staff
  
  Summons a series of meteors which land randomly within a 1200 radius. Unlike Rain of Thunder, the meteors splash range is entirely contained within the splash range of the skill.
  
  Bow Mastery
  Additional Max Damage: 30
  Additional Min Damage: 10
  Additional Dexterity: 22
  Required AP: 112
  
  Passively improves status when wielding Bows.
  
  Crossbow Mastery
  Additional Max Damage: 20
  Additional Critical(%): 15
  Additional Will: 18
  Required AP: 112
  
  Passively improves status while wielding Crossbows.
  
  Sacrifice of Light
  Damage: Remaining HP x 2.5
  Stun Duration(sec): 3.5
  Area of Effect: 800
  Party Healing: 120
  Party Invulnerability(sec): 5.2
  Mana Cost: 40
  Load Time: 0.1

  Light Sword
  Damage(%): 55
  Area of Effect: 500
  Sword Count: 10
  Load Time(sec): 2
  Cooldown Duration(sec): 15
  
  Summons multiple swords which automatically attack foes within range. The skill inflicts damage equal to 55% of your current melee damage.
  
  Silence Shot

  Knockdown multiplier: 4
  Success Rate: Intelligence/10
  Silence Duration(sec): 12
  Load Time(sec): 0.5
  Additional Dex: 19
  Required AP: 213
  
  Silence Shot loads quickly and has no effect on the opponents down gauge (no stun, etc). If the skill is used against a player that is either loading a magic-based skill or has loaded a magic-based skill (with the exception of Natural Shield) the oppent will be knocked down and will receive additional damage. The silenced status prevents the use of magic-based skills.
  
  Arrow Rain
  Damage(%): 85
  Area of Effect: 600
  Arrow Count: 40
  Duration(sec): 2
  Load Time(sec): 0.5

  Arrow Rain is a fast-loading, delayed, area-of-effect, ranged attack. The player fires an arrow directly above an enemy. After ten seconds, a shower of projectiles strikes all targets within range a total of 40 times over two seconds.
  
  Arrow Rain has a maximum accuracy of 25%. Each projectile's accuracy is calculated independently. The skill's maximum accuracy can be improved by wielding handcrafted projectiles. Maximum accuracy is not influenced by the opponent's mobility status. However, the aim speed is negatively affected by the opponent's mobility status.
  
  Standing: 100% (Equal to Magnum Shot)
  Walking: 75%
  Running: 50%
  
  Arrow Rain ignores the opponent's defense stat but not the effects of passive defense or protection.
  
  Magnum Shot
  Crossbow Multiplier: 600%
  
  Down Attack
  Two-handed Multiplier: 300%
  
  Spirit Weapon Awakening
  Damage Formula: Base Damage x Energy / 100

  Mana Withdrawal
  
  Withdraw the mana contained in the wand back into yourself for later usage. A 10-second skill that drains your mana every second, but when you switch off your wand, will add the mana withdrawn back to your mp pool. Maybe start it off at 5 mp per second at rF up to 50 at r1. Oh and have it give mp as a an additional stat, because everyone loves having more mp.
  
  I just noticed there would be no point to limiting it to 10 seconds unless it had a cooldown or a mana/stamina cost. So yeah, pretend I suggested one of those or pretend I didn't say it only lasts 10 seconds.

  Falcon Punch
  
  giant only skill
  
  
  
  
  
  joking aside
  
  I did have ideas, but it applies to current skills (passive)
  like Magic Mastery, or Combat Mastery
  I was thinking the casting/combat animations would change by ranks (abit clumsy looking at the start etc) but after awhile I don't think that's quite as good of an idea xD
  
  and charge attack being able to block, Icebolt/Lightningbolt (the lightning bolt one is a maybe)
  
  
  another one would be when using bolt magic with weapons
  such as a sword
  the element casted would encase the weapon, and shoot out from it instead of the usual hand casting xD
  
  now a "friend" just interupted my train of thought, I'll come back to this later

  Healing Mastery- Magic Skill; Passive; Lowers MP cost by %, raises healing amount by % and grants passive wound healing to healing based on a %
  
  Soul Drain- Alchemy; Active; Drains MP from enemies and works like life drain as far as knockback is concerned. Uses a Soul Drain Crystal.
  
  Healing Aura- Magic Skill; Active; Healing over Time spell. Gains AoE at rank 9+. Ticks every second.
  
  Wand Mastery- Magic Skill; Passive; Decreases MP cost of spells when using a wand. Lowers Evaporation. (Increase spell effects?) Gives MP and int as it's ranked.
  
  Shield Mastery- Combat Skill; Passive; Increases def and prot when using a shield. Increases Charge damage when using a shield. (Grants Passive PD?)
  
  Bow/Crossbow Mastery- Combat Skill; Passive; Increases Max damage and crit for cross/bows. (Increases range? Increase aim speed? Increase Arrow capacity?)
  
  Cylinder Mastery- Alchemy Skill; Passive; Increases alchemy-based damage. Lowers SP cost when using cylinder. (Increase Range? Decrease set-up time/Sp usage of Tower Cylinder?)
  
  Botany- Life Skill; Active/Passive; Grows Personal Herb patches and grind herbs into seeds to replant. Types of grow-able/grindable herbs increase with rank. Buy seeds for green/red/blue/yellow herbs from Greenhouse Manager. Seeds for all herbs can be obtained from the herbs themselves using a new life-skill equip, the mortar and pestle. Success rate for seed-grinding is based on Botany rank.
  Lease land from the Greenhouse Manager. Land is leased for 24 real hours. Land is 3x3 square plots of land. Each square can hold 1 herb patch. Train the skill by planting seeds, picking from your herb patch, and grinding seeds out of herbs. Any un-picked herb patches on your plot when the lease expires are mailed back to you.
  Herbs take differing times to grow from 1~5 in-game days based on the herb. Growing time is reduced based on Botany rank. You don't need to be there for the herbs to grow. (You'll recieve a message when your herbs have finished growing?)

  Shield Bash.
  
  Basically Charge, but at close range. However, it can be only be activated while you are being Melee'd by an opponent.
  
  Pushes your opponent backwards a set distance.
  
  Ranks N-A ~ 1 uses per cooldown
  Ranks 9-6 ~ 2 uses per cooldown
  Ranks 5-1 ~ 3 uses per cooldown
  
  Cooldown: 1 min.
  
  
  Sorta like a last-minute Counter/Heavy Stander hybrid with cooldown. Can only be used while equipped with a Shield.

• User495 wrote on 2010-10-23 21:46
  these skills I haven't put an extensive amount of thought into how to balance it so I'm just putting down a concept xD
  
  Melee Combat Mastery {Combat}
  -only affects your damage when you have no weapons equiped (doesn't count the ones on 2ndary slot)
  -passive skill like combat mastery
  increases damage of barehand damage (and balance/crit rate of)
  increases Str and Dex
  animation changes at r9
  allows for 4 strikes at r1
  
  Will of Fire {Magic}
  -encases yourself in a dome of fire (similiar affect to the firebolt glitch cept more like an inferno?)
  -can also damage the user (more damage at lower ranks/ can be negated by fire elemental sets)
  -drains mana every second it's on (higher ranks increase mana efficiency)
  -inflicts enemies that make contact with it/causes them to flinch (unless they are of fire elements, Hellhounds/Ifrit etc)
  -blocks fire elemental attacks from the outside (completely or lowers damage)
  -increases firebolt/heat buster/flame burst damage that comes from inside the dome
  (you can move while using the skill)
  
  
  
  Will of Ice {Magic}
  -encases yourself in a dome of ice (like an ice wall)
  -slows the user down gradually (specially at lower ranks, may cause a frozen affect if used too long)
  -protects from projectiles(can't defend against firebolt or lightning bolt, lowers damage of adv magic, only by alittle, and when adv magic is casted on it it gets canceled)
  -increases Ice elemental attacks that travels through the dome (from the inside)
  -blocks ice elemental attacks from the outside (either blocks completely or just lowers the damage)
  
  --these repair owner and other people's items (repairing other people's items will be similiar to the elite magic powder menu)
  can only repair if required materials are in the inventory
  also can repair max dura
  Weapon Repair Mastery {Life}
  
  -each rank increases success rate
  
  Armor Repair Mastery {Life}
  
  -each rank increases success rate
  
  Clothing Repair Mastery {Life}
  
  -each rank increases success rate
