ToME: the Tales of Maj'Eyal

You could give them a short range charge (3-4 spaces max) that shoves enemies away and gives a one turn damage bonus. Give it a middling to low cooldown, and I think that would help them with casters, summoners, and high threat enemies in packs without being overcomplicated or not thematic.

C: People don't really like Light Armor not being a competitive choice with Heavy Armor. (C-2: It's not meant to be. Mages are not all meant to have good passive defenses. Period. It's meant to be a flaw-they're entirely active, don't screw up or you're paste. Light Armor and Robes don't have a dif...

I think the concept of antimagic could be expanded beyond just one class tree. Some sort of dedicated antimagic class, like a witch hunter or inquisitor, focused on manaburn damage and spell disruption.

Do light armor users even rely on their armor for survivability anymore? It seems to me like they use either range or some other mitigation mechanic that kinda makes their armor kinda irrelevant. Defense seems inferior to armor since it works on the same system as saves and can be unreliable. If we'...

since combat veteran got pulled into the discussion, we could have fast metabolism do heal mod and life% (may have to rename it, though), have the stamina talent do something extra (maybe a bonus to saves with high stamina), do something interesting with the other two talents and make it a con scali...

If you turn the equilibrium based mindstar mastery into some sort of nature flagellism type skill, thorn grab will actually make more sense.

I think that mindstars should be decoupled from equilibrium for its mastery. You're making PSIblades not some sort of nature blade. This may require that oozemancers get some of their talents changed, or some new ones added.

Why can't psionic focuses just grant a mindpower or mindspeed bonus per tier when in the TK slot? That way mindstars and focus weapons have a benefit to them that can help most of the mindslayer talents without making them that hard to balance.

One thing: Do all of the breaths have to function the same? Say if flame breath functioned like the typical breath weapon, but sand breath was a channeled ability that does damage, blind and pushback while leaving you immobile. What if acid breath was a large slow-moving "projectile" cloud...

Honestly, It may be best to just have some will trees and some strength trees, and let higher be a hybrid tree. Fire, lightning, and acid should be willpower trees, but fire would need to be reworked since half of it isn't fire based. Bellowing roar and wing buffet could be moved into a tree focused...

Honestly, it would make sense for the more general masteries to be on the generic side, while more specific ones to be class skills. For example you could have Weapon Mastery (bows, swords, axes, maces, and tridents) and Finesse Mastery (slings, daggers, and whips) on the generic side, while you cou...

It would be cool if it focused on lots of DOTs with very few direct damage skills. Couple that with lots of slows and pins, maybe add additional punishment to enemies under one of your debuffs, and you could have a very fun class. Watching enemies crawl, bleeding and helpless, only to die at your fe...
