Death Spell

I think it'd make more sense to be instant-cast, and have a low-accuracy Doom effect that may or may not proc.

If it does proc, it should usually just wear off before the timer (maybe 3 tics) expires. The spell would be cast for damage, and it would be called Darkness or something and not just straight up Death or Doom. The added effect would just make it more interesting, not necessarily add much power to it.

Every now and then, the timer would go all the way down and result in a KO.

Best: A Darkness nuke with a chance of Death (Even if only via Trait or JA).
Worst: A Death spell with a crap activation rate on fodder, and immunity for NM's would be basically a wasted magic slot.

This couldve been already implemented for impact possibly. With that being said drk can even have a JA called "Sacrafice"

Job Ability - "Sacrafice" - instantly depletes 33% of the drk maximum HP in exchange for unbridled insidious spells of dark magic (under sacrafice the dark knight can be healed and can still be restored to 100% of it original HP)

Spells under Sacrifice
1) The bane of Stop - a spell that stops all actions of an enemy, the enemy have a -75% physical and magical reduction rate when under the effects of stop (damage accumulation does not effect the duration of this spell)
2) The bane of Confuse - a dark spell that occasionally causes the enemy to physically attack itself
3) The bane of Movement - absorbs the movement speed of an enemy and grants it to the drk.
4) The bane of Death - Causes instant KO on a enemy, moderately low success rate (no items are rewarded upon enemies inflicted with death)
5) The bane of Doom -employs a hideous countdown until the enemy falls. moderate success rate
6) The bane of Provoke - a dark based spell used to de-aggro an aggressive enemy
7) The bane of Scythe -occasionally reduces the amount of tp used after a weaponskill
8) The bane of Damage - A dark based spell that grants the ability to occasionally inflict double attack damage
9) The bane of TP - a defensive prowess dark based spell where the user gains 4x the TP from enemies attacks
10) The bane of Blood - a dark based spell that occasionally causes a melee hit to be fully absorbed as HP

I love all of this post right here ^
