Lost Soul

[Eldrylars]

Lost Soul will be a little rough but it looks like it will be fun.

One obvious note but I am pretty sure it's intentional is the 50% mana use of Fireball,

The other is Strike, is it intentioned to be a Mana skill? Seems like it should consume 50% stam, instead of mana?

EDIT: Just tested, and it's stam lol...

It was definitely a rough ride, but it was possible. I'm thinking maybe adding a base equipment weight is necessary though. Leveling with no armor was brutal. I went full endurance build too, lol.

Definitely captivates the hard mode nature of Herocraft. I could have mastered in 2 days though (Going hard, nothing else) had I not taken a break. I agree with Delf too, but only because the skele buff tbh. The combo is nice, will say though that the first 5-10 or so levels are a bitch without any skills.

Not a huge fan of lost soul immediately branching into all 16 specs once you master. Are paths still up for consideration?

Lost soul wasnt much of a trouble for me as it was trying to find mobs. A lot of people are like go 10-10-10-10 (Str/Con/Edur/Int) which I think is silly.

I played my lost soul like a warrior path; big STr, some Con and like a Medium amount of Endurance. Once I stopped mistaking Creepers for zombies; I was okay.

Also I understand where Kain is going into being able to go any spec; I mean; Who wants to waste time leveling a Healer class after they've already mastered wizard all because they want to be a cleric now?

Sidin with Rumble on this one. It just seems silly to force players to play a worthless class just so that they can fit nicely in to an archetype. Not to mention the constraints archetypes have on class design. I know we don't really follow those rules anyways, but let's face it. The current Disciple does not belong in the Healer tree, and the Bard / Runeblade don't belong in the rogue tree. It just all felt a bit too silly, imo.

On that note, how do we all feel with replacing kick with sneak for Lost Soul? I feel its more rogue-like and I won't lie, lost soul's burst scares me a bit.

Eh, I thought about it. Honestly though, the excessive stam costs and lack of stamina regen really puts lost-soul in it's place. A spec'd class above level 15-20 should have no problems dealing with a lost soul in any form of PvP.
