Just another classidea: Psyblade

[Fareeha]

I kinda bumped into this concept and fell in love with it, so I started thinking further, thought up some playstyles, some unique features to it, etc.
Rather than just retyping everything out here, I just copy-pasted it from the notepad I used for it. It's still raw, but I think this entire concept has potential.
Hope you enjoy. Thoughts and feedback welcome.
F.A.

Psychic Spellblade - Psyblade for short.

Main Theme: Controlling your weapon through Psychic prowess, wielding it seperate from your character, combined with several Psychic spells.

Main Weapon: Chained Spellblade
- Chain is wrapped around the main arm of the player (-> Prince of Persia is a good visual reference),
blade is thrown and swung around using the chain and controlled using psychic powers.

Main attribute: INT
- Psychic powers are its main focus, thus Intelligence.
(No auto-attacks at range)

Next part: Playstyle and Utility

[Fareeha]

Playstyle: Weaponskills and spells combined, (All INT).
1: Keep your distance to swing your blade around, so you can swing more freely and gain some speed before striking your foe.
2: Then reel yourself in with your chain, by attaching your weapon to your foe, and perform a meleerange burst.
3: Then create an illusion and disengage 15 yalms, by pushing yourself backwards with a psywave.
4: Manage your blades position correctly. You cannot change targets in the middle of a Weaponskillchain, without recalling your blade first.

Team utility:
- Directional damagemitigation, by weaving a wall with your chain and psychic powers, blocking X % of magic damage comming from the other side of the wall.
- Can paralyse lesser foes (random dmg reduction towards the tank)
- Mindburst: 3 sec root into 8 sec slow
- Mindbreak: reduces magic damage dealt by the target for 6 seconds (Disable, for magic damage only)
- Strangulate: silences target for 2 seconds
- Sleep

No thoughts went into the future of the class in comming expansions, since I have no idea what approach SE would like to take on the development of them. I just made this with the thought in mind 'Hey, wouldn't this be cool in the game?'
