What Pirate changes shall they be bringing to this arrrmazing class?

- Instead of having you wait till you charge all your bar little by little, then enable you to use energy attacks once your bar is full... you should just be able to use your energy right away. Basically imagine your Energy Bar is a new MP bar, or a "Ki Bar", which charges by the amount of hits you make on mobs. Then different skills like E.Drain/Blast/Orb would have different costs, depleting certain % of your Energy Bar when you use them. So if your bar is halfway full, you can use Drain/Blast/Orb with no problems, and it will drain your bar until it reaches zero.

I like this idea! It makes me think of druids in WoW. Say you start with your bar half filled, so then you're in "balance". Using certain skills make your bar go to the left (barrage, csb, SSK), some make it go to the left (charge blow, drain and energy orb, demolition). Left is the physical side, right the energy side. When you do nothing the bar slowly goes to the middle again.

When your bar reaches the right, you enter in the transformation state, which gives a bonus damage to the opposite side's skills (the physical ones) and also unlocking the skill demolition.
So charging it fully with energy, blast and orb get say a 25% damage increase for x seconds. While you use them the bar goes down till you reach the bottom, you enter another transformation state, and omg this could be the bubble!!! (everything's coming together!!!! :O :O :O)

That way, you're constantly alternating between the two different type of skills,

Since this system is (mostly) built in, a LOT of skills open up (2x transformation and charge open up) to more attacks. A new physical attack in 3th job instead of blast, maybe move barrage there, then in 4th job a new physical attack. It could be one with a CD like BaM's dark shock that you can use every 10 seconds and is either physical or energy sided- whichever is more beneficial That would even more add variation into training.


Total ripoff of WoW's lunar and solar balance system xD but it'll be fun.

Oh wth imma make a whole skilltree >

 Spoiler

[SIZE="5"]1st job:[/SIZE]
No changes, except that dash stacks with transformation and bubble to 170% speed, 123 jump.
SSK is physical-element.
Flash fist is -element. Changed animation to be more energy-y.

[SIZE="5"]2th job:[/SIZE]
Double uppercut replaced by a mobbing energy-elemented move like SSK. It could be something like a mini-boomerang skill, with half the range and damage ofcourse.

CSB is energy-element
BSB is physical-element.

SO FAR:
Physical-element
- SSK
- CSB
energy-element
- Flash fist
- New mob move
- BSB
Nothing:
- shark wave *me gusta*

This will get important at level 70 when you put one point in "Energy balance", and putting also one point in barrage means you'll have a mob move, single target and rushmove in both energy and physical element.

[SIZE="5"]3th job:[/SIZE]
- shockwave -> replaced by "some physical mob skill"
- Transformation removed, replaced by "some physical mob skill". To replace SSK, though max mobs hit is 4.
- Brawling mastery removed: 25% bonus damage from energy charge is which can (25%
- Energy charge replaced by "Energy balance" What I explained in the start of my post. The bubble and transformation state are now available when reaching max potential, both give the same bonusses as energy charge but twice as long duration (Accuracy: +100, Avoidability: +100, Weapon ATT: +20, Duration: 120 sec, Body Attack Damage: 350%, Knock-back Resistance Rate: 90%) and increased damage of opposite element 25%.

SO FAR:
Physical-element
- ssk
- CSB
- mini-boomerang
- Blast (only available in bubble)
energy-element
- Flash fist
- BSB
- new 2th job mob skill.
- Drain (only available in transformation)
Nothing:
- shark wave *me gusta*


Once you're charged up you'll be alternating shock/drain and blast and everything is cool, but when you log in you'll still have to be using 2th job skills, so more neutral skills are needed in 4th job.

Energy is 1v1-sided strong, physical is mob-strong. That is continued in 4th job:
[SIZE="5"]4th job:[/SIZE]
Barrage - physical attack: always available
DS: energyelement and always available
Demo - physical element only available in transform.
Energy orb: Energy element and only available in bubble.

This would mean you have a bossing strategy alternate barrage till transform then demo till bubble,
and when training you alternate orb and DS in the same way
