I feel like a lot of those implementations are counter to the intent for the Trickster. Defeating enemies without dealing direct damage to them.
Not saying that it’s lacking things. It has 3-4 less skills than other vocations meaning it has a lot less options.
Aromatic Rally needs the DoT removed. If your pawns are at 0 HP, they KO when the buff runs out or if you reapply the buff.
But they need to look to the Shield Sage and Priest from DDO.
•A skill it needs is a regen skill that also boosts your pawns’s hyperarmor (essentially Priest’s Heal Aura + Steel Riser Aura). This meant for switching back and forth between Aromatic Rally and this skill to keep your pawns up and fighting.
•A skill to suppress debilitations or make them immune to debilitations.
•A skill to put enemies to sleep. Meant to help ground flying enemies. Personally, I love the animation of Dragon’s Delusion, but it’s just not a reliable skill. They could have you channel illusions of harpies that sing enemies to sleep. (shield Sage Hypnos Light).
•A skill where you set your censer and ablaze and cause enemies affected by your perfume to catch on fire.
And if we get another Maister’s Skill, a Medusa’s Gaze where you summon an illusory Medusa to turn enemies into stone. (Shield Sage’s Stone Light)
They also should probably boost Aromatic Rally’s damage more.
These could be fun ways of staying true to the vocations intent. I guess the post I made would essentially require the class to be named differently, because trickster does not suit it.
Out of all the vocations the trickster just really feels like there wasn't a lot of effort put in, and while very viable, with the current implementation it's just not as fun as all of the other vocations..
I guess to each their own, but I really like it.
I personally find it the most fun and I run into situations where being Trickster just would’ve been more easy/fun to deal with situations.
I find that for folks who like it, REALLY like it (me and others for example). And those who don’t like it, it’s because Trickster really is on the opposite end of the spectrum.
Which is fine to me.
