What the skill would do is basically use the same effects as strip shield....but with Range. See, this way a wiz/prof/priest (I don't quite suggest ninja) isn't totally at the mercy of luck the ENTIRE time. Say an LK with GTB or maya attacks. Try strip, run, strip, run, strip, run, etc. until it works.
But with regular strip shield? Strip, half health gone, if not more, strip, dead. This could kinda solve the problem, unless I'm missing something. |
A ranged strip shield skill sounds pretty good, but then you have to see that it would mega screw the paladin class over, seeing as a ton of their defensive skills as well as their offensive skills rely on having a shield equipped. Running into melee to do strip shield at least gives the paladin a chance to react before being taken out of commission.
If it was ranged at all, it would have to be a mega short range...like...3 squares or something.
Also, one thing we continue to forget is Full Chemical Protect.
Rather than go into making custom skills and the like to balance GTB, and making a new card (i.e. melee variant of GTB) to "balance" things out, a simple coding edit of the effect of GTB could be made to satisfy everyone.
So, rather than discuss new skills or cards, lets post some new effects we would like to see on the GTB to make it more balanced. I'll start with a couple ideas...
-Damage redux of 75-90%, this would allow damage to go through, cause the damage flinch animation to go off, and allow magical effects to go into effect. This seems to be the generic fix for most other servers.
-Perhaps increase the physical damage taken when wearing a GTB by a percentage.
-Make the wearer more susceptible to elemental attacks. (i.e. Someone uses a converter or some other.)
-Lessen the wearer's physical/ranged damage output by a percentage.
-Incur a maximum health penalty.
-Deactivate natural SP regeneration while equipped.
Now I know not all of these ideas are good ideas, i'm just wanting to break the ice and put something out there. So yes, lets come up with something better.
I don't mean for all of these effects to happen at the same time, but perhaps mix and match some for the desired effect.

I second this idea, it's amazing, and it fixes like all the problems. Awesome card, great idea Ezk. Now, time to run before someone gets me for bringing something so stupid in here.  |
I actually was knocked out of my chair from the tidal wave of dumb that jumped out and slapped me in the face.
Dear god...what?

Seph: That was already suggested and no conclusion was reached. Strafe n' I made the thread with the melee counter part.

Or we could do as the OFFICIAL RO Servers did and just get rid of the card alltogether because its so broken......
But I can settle with a 70% Damage reduction. |

Dread: That was also reached with no conclusion.
Seph: Wrong thread. Here is the thread I'm referring to.

If shield idea was only equippable by magic, I am sure if a magic class is taking damage from a pally, the pally wouldn't be too concerned if he lost his shield to a mage. I know I wouldn't be.
I like several of those suggestions, some which were my ideas, but I won't point them out cause I don't wanna start a shitstorm.

We dont need a new card, we dont want to edit the card, the whole idea is to stray from making new things. Equips that give a skill dont matter, why? cuase we have tons of them already its nothing new its an essence of Ragnarök to have things of said nature. Do you people really think that this stuff hasnt been said suggested and done before. It has and it was rejected or ignored. Luzz's way of thinking is to not change the basic things. So unless you have one idea that doesnt over power or underpower something it wont work.
This thread is for simple make the full chemical shield buff be dispellable, and make a donate that allows use of strip shield level 1. This makes the gtb haters happy, and it doesnt hardly change shit. =l. Why becuase something can strip shield level 1 a paladin, if your a good paladin youl kill it anyways, why? Run and gospel. Range and sacri, It doesnt hardly effect anything. Lets please stick to what i said in the first post. and vote on it solely
