Abilities you would like to see

[Uriahnool]

Just wondering, seems like there are so many ideas out there for how roles should be played. What role do you play in-game and what abilities would you like to see for that role? I've heard things like "haste for WHM" or "drain for BLM." What would you like to see on your class/role as an ability?

I for one would like a combo move for WAR that dealt a blow with a 5% chance to reduce HP by 1/2 on trash mobs. I just think it would be much more epic to deal some critical or fatal blows now and then.

A support class.

Bard DPS Limit Break

And please tell us how this combo move would be balanced against the other DD classes, if bosses take 5 mins longer with a WAR stack but the run to the boss takes 10 mins less, then a WAR stack with this combo would be much preferred over any DD class, you just really broke the game for a lot of people.

A support class.

A support role would hurt other classes and mess up group make-ups.

Having support skills spread among all the jobs keeps everyone employed. DRG buffs piercing attacks, Monks have mantra, Bards boost magic dmg, etc.

A support class could take a DD spot no problem therefore not messing up group make-ups (because you would use them to increase damage) and as long as the classes buffs were balanced it would not hurt other classes, class balancing is the key to all this in MMOs.

I'd like to see an enhanced 'Cover' for PLD. Maybe one that covers up to 3 people within 15y.

[Shuon]

someone mentioned time mage with abilities to 'reverse' damage received/debuffs i.e. a healer of some sort. i thought it was a really neat idea.

I am asking for abilities you would like to see, not why every suggestion would break the game.

"Strive To Live" - Warrior skill
If your HP is overhealed by a self-heal ability, you gain a shield equal to 30% of your HP. 40s Cooldown

An ability along those lines for Warriors would be great
