  Yeah sorry, wind blast is ususally only a temporary escape, working on 1 enemy only. If you get 2 aggros on you, its pretty much useless. Use it 3 times and its out for a cool down, don't treat it as a godly move.
  
  Also, I'm not here to argue about how elves have this or that, because to be honest I don't care what elves can do. I'm kind of confused where you people got the strange idea that I was trying to bash elves. I'm just really annoyed when I have the pleasure of chasing around badguys as they run in circles to land a smash.
  
  I'm not saying make humans faster then elves, I'm saying make humans faster then monsters in this game. I mean really, humans can only outrun zombies.

  
  
  Instead of speeding up humans, how about slowing down monsters?
  
  ...Anybody?

  elves wouldn't need to run faster than humans if everything is slowed down.

  Ability to use mag against Blinkers in mid-flight.

  Humans wouldn't need more defense/prot then cause they would be able to run away from stuff, so might as well make that even with elves as well.

  nah, elves still want to attack from a distance and not get hit.

  There's humans that want to attack from a distance, i.e. mage, alchemist and archer humans.

  Hide is basically useless. You have 30 seconds from the last time either you got hit or you hit the mob to be able to use it.

  Fix'd for you.~

  Hide was nerfed. Now it's only really useful for running completely away from combat, or for avoiding it altogether.
  
  In other words, that's irrelevant.

  Speaking of...Why CAN'T you use magic/ranged/similar alchemy against all flying enemies? Isn't that one of the points for ranged attacks? o_O

  Selfish humans.

  Here is one.
  :+:Relocation:+:
  [Magic Tab]
  
  Relocation will allow you to transport your body to a different location on the screen. This skill requires heavy concentration so it is mainly used
  by skilled Wizards and druids.
  
  Basically you need to be in a state of concentration so the skill works by activation, similar to Mana shield and Meditation. As the skill is activated you will lose 2 MP and 1 SP per second. In order for you to "relocate" you need to be knocked back (knocked back via smash, windmill, firebolt etc etc) this will allow you to click elsewhere on your field of vision and "teleport" to that location. The higher your skill rank the longer distance you can travel, however you will drain more Mana and SP per second.
  Requires Teleport Staff to use.

  
  
  this looks like a cool idea, also think that this skill should require Meditation to be activated for use(Meditation also boosts it's effects?)

  Wouldn't it make more sense to be the other way around?
  The enemies you're focused on do less damage, but others do more...?
  
  I can't say I really understand the point in this skill. :l
  
  
  

  
  the point of that skill I think has to do with how you're focused completely on 1 enemy so you ignore the other ones, in a sense it could be used for Multiaggro situations
  
  that wand mastery/staff mastery idea is good cause it helps lower the costs of repairs
  
  I don't really remember if I posted in this thread before but
  ideas that would be nice are (without comming up with names or anything or maybe I will if it's not hard) also didn't check if anyone else had the same idea so just throwing it out there
  
  a skill that increases running speed Sprint maybe? drains Stamina by a certain amount with use, all races will be equal in speed while using this skill (it should work like Meditation/Chain Cylinder/Mana Shield and it quits when you run out of stam)
  
  Magic Infusion: Casting magic and I guess, "enchanting" it onto a weapon so that it recieve it's element temporarily and recieves certain affects such as
  Firebolt making the weapon knockback with 1 hit
  Lightning Bolt multiples the stun duration on that weapon
  Ice Bolt increases weapon attack speed
  also animations to go with the effects
  
  and random thought, that I think Trinity Staff might eventually be used for "Inter/Adv Magic Fusion" if we get to the point of needing that kind of damage possibly
