Benchmark Trailer

Hmm, was that an AoE damage skill on Paladin? It also looked defensive too.. Defensive Damage :3?

Jealous of the gap closer but maybe that holy skill is pretty cool.

Bunch of other interesting things to note, and of course we have to wait but I just want to @lol for the Ninja skill XD. I want to level them just to be able to slap a toad around sometimes haha.

The work gone into making the settings easy to understand in the benchmark is pretty cool, I liked it was highlighting, exampling and stuff.

My first thought was an upgraded Flash or, more probably, a replacement for Flash if it becomes a Cross-Class skill rather than a Job/Class skill.

Yeah maybe, I would like to not touch flash that much but I do see it being useful for the other jobs to have still - especially for lower levels. Like running out of TP, circle radius grab, slight damage reduction, also we could consider making it unique over the other aoe damage enmity spells in that it might have even more radius - making it a really good first grabber skill for all levels, then use your damage aoe for holding and managing large group hate.

I'm not opposed to it existing, but not being able to spam an aoe damage spell like the other tanks makes me feel like a peasant lol.

Yeah, I agree. Though in all likelihood its probably a new 60-70 skill since those seemed to be what were being showcased in the video. Really curious to see if that BLM spell will be Burst or something else.

It looked like those eye attacks the enemies do - specifically Diablos's (well a little), so you have to make sure they're looking towards the center. It also looked a bit like a demi/gravity/ExDeath sort of thing. Burst would be more lightning aspected right?

Directional for mages... haha. Ss-s-s-STOP MOVING THE MONSTERS, FACE HIM TO MY EYE.. damn Paladin.. I don't actually think that is what it is but lol.. its what it looked like to me. If I had to make a less joke guess I'm going back to the demi/void/gravity stuff.

I'm curious how they'd fit in a new burst spell without it being a oGCD/its own longer cooldown. Maybe connected to thunder procs (but it doesn't look like lightning aspect to me)?
