Are you saying you don't need any more hp recovery at 20k hp?

When I thief I dont expect my battles to last more than 15 seconds. Mana shield would extend that time to 2mins, but I think its best effects will be seen in group play increasing the mortality time of a pure int nuker.

Its fun nonetheless to force players to choose which skill tree to take and how much of each. We'll start to see more variety in builds, and this will be even more apparent with a higher skill and cap.

As I see it at the moment you could raise defense or max nuke damage, or take advantage of ice imbue (if players start to disregard immunity by dropping fire) either way none of those decisions will be wrong, just make sure you stay focused in your goals.

The best decision would also depend on your server. Just for example, if you happen to be the only pure int nuker lvl80 in a server full of pure str glaives then maybe maximizing defense would cease to be relevant <.<.

So, let players experiment. The uncertainty is a welcomed change, and hopefully stimulate innovation back into the game :)

I really agree, the new skills will really bring a lot more varieity of builds, and now thiefing + hunting need more strategy now with the new update, it should be exciting.


For now Mana Shield seems like something we can speculate but can't touch, I guess we ahve to wait until it comes out
