Stoneskin II

[Lyrinn]

...what we're asking for is probably too resource intensive for a QoL change such as this.

I don't see how it would be resource intensive, just make it cross class like ... every other crossed skill in the game.

Then people would start complaining "OMG IT TAKES ANOTHER CROSS CLASS SPOT!" =p

[EDIT] To be fair though, what Lyrinn would be the path of least resistance.

WHMs get Stoneskin AND Stoneskin II at 34, both cross classable.

Give Graniteskin II trait at the same level you get Graniteskin.

Problem solved.

What I was directing my original post towards is the desire for players to want an elaborate way to make Stoneskin AoE outside of combat so they can maintain only using one cross class, as has been discussed somewhere in the Healer's Forum.

Yeah, I wouldn't give up a cross-class slot for it. *shrug*

No, I don't have any skills cc'd I would want to part with. Just give sch their own stoneskin 2.

A better idea would be to make stoneskin have an aoe effect outside of battle and lose that effect in battle.

Stoneskin II is just for a slightly quicker means of applying stoneskin TO START.

This is exactly why white mage wanted it. This is exactly why scholar wants it.

I'm just kinda... aghast at how this thread spiraled like this for one simple request @.@

Funny how you managed to miss the post I made two replies before the one you quoted in regards to just that. I agree that making the change to SS soe it AoEs outside of combat is the best idea, but I don't think it's as "easy" to program as everyone thinks it is.
