The changes I propose improve both aspects of sm in both PvP and PvE. The first change concerns the two stigma branches of the charmer. Here are the changes I propose:

• Dot Branch

1.    Eliminate the skill Hand of Torpor and in its place insert the stigma Infernal Blight, because anyway that sleep for a charmer is useless, being the class based on fear and moreover this skill has a high cast time;
2. Last stigma of the branch is not infernal Blight but Sympathetic mind I.

• Spirit Branch

1. Replace the Enmity Swap I skill with the Spirit burn-to-Ashes/Explosion I skill;
2. Eliminate the skill spirit hypnosis and insert the stigma Spirit substitution for the same reasons as Hand of Torpor, and other obvious reasons. In PvE equally disadvantageous if we consider that the character loses buffs such as spirit armor of light / Darkness

These few changes make the character much more performing, but we see further changes that affect some skills in particular:

1. Elemental strike: I propose to remove cast time and make this skill instantaneous. Cost MP slightly increased;

2. Armor Spirit: I propose to increase the magic boost provided by the skill from 400 to 1000, being still a branch in which the spirit attacks, seeing that the few skills do a low damage nullifies both this branch in PvE, but also in PvP;

3. Spirit Armor of Light/Darkness max level: increase the magic boost from 700 to 1300 and make the buff instantaneous, in this way the spirit is more competitive in different situations;

4. Spirit Ruinous Offensive I: Insert the ethereal touch effect into the skill with each spirit and remove the slowing effect provided by the spirit of the earth. MP consumption increased from 200 to 700 and damage unchanged;

5. Enter the Elemental discharge skill order with particular modifications, the first that the spirit does not disappear and the second that stunna the surrounding enemies for 4 seconds. Instant cast and CD increased from 3 to 5m;

6. Elemental Disharge: The skill will have instant cast, increased MP consumption, the spirit does not disappear and stunna opponents for 4 seconds in range.

7. Soul Torrent I: Reduce the CD to 1 minute;

8. Duration of fear and sleep equal applied on the spirit equal to those of the player;

9. Cloaking Word I: Insert a second cast level as if it were a variation. The CD of this skill is unchanged. The first level of cast is intended to send an entire group invisible with the penalties known to us for the duration of 30 seconds, while the second level of cast whose time is 2 seconds, provides the effect of invisibility only for the charmer and for the spirit summoned. The duration of this second level is 1 minute and the cost in Mp of the second level is 2020 MP and the penalty on speed is less heavy than the first level being only for itself and is 20%;

10. Sympathetic Mind I: Being the last skill unlockable with the branch will have a slight modification or increases magic boost, magical accuracy and magic suppression respectively of 400, 400, 300.

Why create an imbalance with these edits? Now it plays well even without these changes, but they don’t appear in any way on PvP and PvE content.

Why create an imbalance with these edits? Now it plays well even without these changes, but they don’t appear in any way on PvP and PvE content.

The reasons are very simple. Surely the branch of the DoT works well, but an SM prefers to do the DoT branch up to the infernal Pain skill, so everyone and I say almost everyone excludes the infernal Blight skill, yet the latter can be very useful in battle and therefore to make it more accessible I thought of proposing this small change with an improvement of the Sympathetic mind I buff,   although not necessary, but at least you make me accessible Infernal Blight.

But if on the one hand the DoT branch is performing even with the current changes, the branch of the Spirit is completely nullified for equally obvious reasons and these reasons are:

The spirit even with the full equipment without skills reaches 1600 MB, a very low value considering that even a sorcerer and an sm with buff widely reach 2100 MSuppression, so the magic boost of the pet is completely nullified. With spirit armor things improve slightly but still the suppression of an enemy is so high that it does not feel any change.This reduces its use in battle. The only way to see a minimum increase in damage is to have the buff armor of light / darkness or even the same sympathetic mind in addition to the other buffs to reach values such as 2800, 2900 MB, but it is understood that in any case the gain of damage is minimal, not to mention the magical precision, which without doubles is so low that without armor of the spirit you have a high chance of making miss or resist. So as you can see the pet is nullified.

With this proposal I am going to characterize the character in two different styles of play. On the one hand it goes to strengthen the branch of the dispel and therefore a style of play based on damage to the second, while on the other hand it is based on the spirit which is then the reason why the class is called spiritmaster. To make the spirit more suitable for PvP use and therefore to make this branch more valid, I proposed these small changes without which it is really difficult to use in battle. Finally, since when you play with sm it happens very often to attract the surrounding mobs I have inserted a second level of cloacking word and let's say a particular gem of the sm. The invisibility in this circumstance is similar to that of the renger, but with a lower penalty on speed and you cast it for 2 second. In conclusion the increased value of magic boost of spirit armor and armor of light / darkness overall is 1200, for this value it is more preferable that it is increased by armor spirit, so if you really have to be specific, spirit armor must provide 1500 of magic boost and armor of darkness / light 800 at least for a correct balance in the use of the two branches. Finally to be specific spirit armor must be the last skill of the spirit branch that can be unlocked and therefore instead of armor spirit you have to put spirit substitution and instead of spirit hypnosis it takes armor spirit. The use of the spirit branch with these modifications is somewhat similar to that of the sorcerer, considering in fact an area skill and the ethereal touch with a single objective and to finish the 4-second group stun. It is more beautiful to look at and easier to use in many situations.

So let's say that the proposal needs to be revised like this to be specific:

The changes I propose improve both aspects of sm in both PvP and PvE. The first change concerns the two stigma branches of the charmer. Here are the changes I propose:

• Dot Branch

1.    Eliminate the skill Hand of Torpor and in its place insert the stigma Infernal Blight, because anyway that sleep for a charmer is useless, being the class based on fear and moreover this skill has a high cast time;
2. Last stigma of the branch is not infernal Blight but Sympathetic mind I.

• Spirit Branch

1. Replace the Enmity Swap I skill with the Spirit burn-to-Ashes/Explosion I skill;
2. Replace Armor Spirit I with Spirit Substitution I
3. Eliminate the skill spirit hypnosis and insert the stigma Armor Spirit for the same reasons as Hand of Torpor, and other obvious reasons. In PvE equally disadvantageous if we consider that the character loses buffs such as spirit armor of light / Darkness

These few changes make the character much more performing, but we see further changes that affect some skills in particular:

1. Elemental strike: I propose to remove cast time and make this skill instantaneous. Cost MP slightly increased;

2. Armor Spirit: I propose to increase the magic boost provided by the skill from 400 to 1500, being still a branch in which the spirit attacks, seeing that the few skills do a low damage nullifies both this branch in PvE, but also in PvP;

3. Spirit Armor of Light/Darkness max level: increase the magic boost from 700 to 800 and make the buff instantaneous, in this way the spirit is more competitive in different situations;

4. Spirit Ruinous Offensive I: Insert the ethereal touch effect into the skill with each spirit and remove the slowing effect provided by the spirit of the earth. MP consumption increased from 200 to 700 and damage unchanged;

5. Enter the Elemental discharge skill order with particular modifications, the first that the spirit does not disappear and the second that stunna the surrounding enemies for 4 seconds. Instant cast and CD increased from 3 to 5m;

7. Soul Torrent I: Reduce the CD to 1 minute;

8. Duration of fear and sleep equal applied on the spirit equal to those of the player;

9. Cloaking Word I: Insert a second cast level as if it were a variation. The CD of this skill is unchanged. The first level of cast is intended to send an entire group invisible with the penalties known to us for the duration of 30 seconds, while the second level of cast whose time is 2 seconds, provides the effect of invisibility only for the charmer and for the spirit summoned. The duration of this second level is 1 minute and the cost in Mp of the second level is 2020 MP and the penalty on speed is less heavy than the first level being only for itself and is 20%;

10. Sympathetic Mind I: Increase damage of 10% with ignite eather, Magic implosion, Infernal pain.

11. Separate Skill: Blade of Earth and Chain of Earth have separate CD

So in this way I am going to characterize the character in two different styles of play.

This is a 4.6 server this is how sm was if you dont like it reroll class simple

I forgot this, I'll add it now. Regarding the duration of sleep and fear on the spirit you can also remain unchanged, but you can find an alternative solution, for example replenish element, or the skill that takes care of the Hp of the spirit. Being the spirit linked to the spellcaster it is possible to insert the effect of removing fear and sleep within this skill, in this way if the charmer wants to remove these effects loses HP. But on the other hand you can make spirit burn to ashes / Esplosion with CD reduced from 3 to 1 minute.

why should I reroll class since I prefer the sm, only instead of using the dot branch I would prefer to use the Spirit branch. Obviously I tried to propose, because in any case in retail the classes are hyperbalanced, but in the classic and on Euro Aion you can make those small changes that make the game more beautiful.

use it then they aint gonna change anything about the class as it was how it was in 4.6 or did you just forget your playing on a 4.6 private server?

Just now, passthesauce said:

Usalo quindi non cambieranno nulla della classe come era in 4.6 o hai semplicemente dimenticato di giocare su un server privato 4.6?

I have not forgotten anything about the class, I only use the magic classes because they are the most suitable for my style of play, but the only one that really remains just like that is the spiritmaster maybe something can be reviewed that highlights this branch. Retail with all the changes made and the CDs too small is something unwatchable, so in these versions like a 4.6 revisited or a classic with certain changes it can be really nice.
