Shukuchi - Suggested Change

[Vasquez]

Shukuchi is potentially a really useful ability, but currently, the user interface makes it slightly cumbersome to use properly.

Currently, if the user targets an area outside of the maximum range of Shukuchi, the targeting reticle becomes purple and it is unable to initiate Shukuchi.

The minor change in UI that I would humbly suggest is that the user's targeting cursor be rendered unable to select positions outside of the maximum range of shukuchi. And when the user's targeting cursor exceeds the limits of Shukuchi's range, the destination reticle for Shukuchi will remain in a position that is farthest from the player's character model as possible but still in the direction of the user's cursor.

For instance, if a Ninja wishes to use Shikuchi to move to the North 20 yalms. The Ninja may place his mouse cursor on a position 25 yalms to the North of his character model, but the targeting reticle will remain exactly 20 yalms North of his character model and remain usable.

I like this. Makes it where you can more quickly place it in the general direction you want to get over to and do it without fiddling with the "am I out of bounds" stuff.

Guild Wars 2 added a feature like this for all ground targetting abilities, it will always lock at the maximum range at which it can be used and not further even if you put your cursor further than the real range. It's extremely useful and one of the best ground targetting updates they did.

Also make the animation faster or be an instant teleport (i.e. Shoulder Tackle) so that I'm not at the mercy of server ticks if I happen to Shukuchi over a ground AoE.

Shoulder Tackle is not an instant teleport. Passing over or through area effects will still inflict harm. eg. tackling through t11 Hydra's shield during the add phase will kill you instantly, A3 tornado will DoT you for a split second, etc.

But it is certainly faster than Shukuchukucheekibreeki.

Personaly I would want from that is simply by pressing the skill we see the area/range we can teleport in...becouse sometimes based on camera angle its hard to tell the distance where I want to go. Since sometimes im wasting time by kinda searching how far I can teleport in a circle area of the "able to teleport in" would be nice.
