Runes of Magic US / AU

Current M/R 35 elite skill is :

Distract: Distracts the target, so that it loses its focus on you. You get the lowest place in the aggro table for 10.0 seconds.


In PvP this skill does nothing. In PvE this skill has no use, as it is not possible for a M/R class to ever take aggro over other classes as it can not do damage no where near as other combos. With the amount of ways to lower aggro in the game, this skill is redundant and useless.


Few suggestions for skill.


1. Distract: Creates a shadow on caster lowering incoming damage by 10% for 10 secs with a 2m Cooldown.


2. Distract: Creates a shadow copy of caster (within 50m distance) that absorbs the next attack within 10 secs. 2m cooldown (ability/ timer is canceled if user is more then 50m away from shadow copy.


Both suggestion 1-2 are improvements to the skill and class without giving it a strong improvement to avoid skill being unbalanced. This simply takes away a unless skill and gives the combo something that can be used without being a game changer.


I may add more ideas later, however i am not very hopeful for my class combo.. i could also come out with more interesting ideas however i thought simple would be best for RW.


Am i SoL for wanting more out of my combo? let me know.

it's not a bad class, and it does have one of the highest magic damage weapons when using wand+dagger, but that's not for the cheap of heart players.

I do run around with around 80k or so hp, by no means am i a strong player, i do use some very out dated gear. I always wondered if i should try honor gear, but feared that what little damage i already do would be even lower just so i can go from getting killed by 1 hit to 2 hit.

In dungeons that combo is not worth using, and while it is decent in PVP for players who do take the time to gear it and learn to play it, that same effort would be better invested in other combos hence why very few m/r combos are out there. so just wanted to add something to lower the gap in power.

Would love to see a day where most combos are close to each other, however i can't suggest improvements to things i am not familiar with.
