Skill tree idea:Battlemage

if you guys have additional ideas for magic devices comment them below

 

Hello, you called? Seems like others are making skill trees too XD I just released another one today.
I wouldnt mind making the actual skill tree graphic for this, makes it look even more convincing if you make it right to fool people

But yeah, I like it, I wouldnt mind having this added if there were a balance patch later.

 

finally some main MD exclusive skills
(they should get something like crusher skills in the future. hopefully they will do something about it when they are done with guard/evasion and tier 4 side skills)

here's some more to make use of the MD's physical capabilities:

Gear Shift (active buff)
enhance magic power based on atk

Accelerate (passive)
charge up by using auto-attacks (max 30). increase movement speed.
the effect resets when taking damage. unavailable with Slow or Stop.
(for faster positioning and avoiding AoEs. you are flying, so why shouldn't you be quicker than those who walk?)

Mana Overdrive (active buff)
uses up all mp and increases charge stack based on mp used (max 20).
increase normal attack power, aspd and ampr of the next 10 auto-attacks. the effect scales with the charge count.
unable to use magic attack skills while in effect.

 

making a visual tree for this would be nice but I have absolutely no idea how to go about that so I just worried about the main skills, but yeah a visual representation would sell it alot more xD
