song : soothing calm

Uses:
Rewards the person under the influence of the song with health from every successfull attack to the opponent.

Would be sweet to not rely on cleric or druid class to heal yourself...

why 'soothing calm'?

if you're gaining health from your attacks on the opponent, it sounds like some kind of vampiric affect

would be neat if it was only available to necro-bards, a cross class skill type thingie, necro bards make me think of michael jackson doing the thriller video with all the zombies in it, but i digress...

You're kidding, right? if you get that and combine it with spectral shield, killing any mob whatsoever = regen mode. Personally I think spectral shield is one of the most overpowered attributes in the game, but that's probably because I don't have it in my classo. hehe. This suggestion would come a very close second.

Here's an idea - let's just all have perma-max hp and mana and never have to regen at all, and heck, throw in perma-ethereal for good measure, you know, for completedness.

Oh, and remove the Warrior class, it would be completely redundant anyway.

Hmm lets think about this:

1 Successful attack = 1 hp

7 attacks possible per round

7 x 1 = Weasel's max hp?

:twisted:

No wonder Weasel's classo's redundant :lol:

would be sweet if thieves could run -11 with full damage and hit too. probably about as likely.
if it was a % (a very small one) of damage on a given % of hits it might be nice for newbies on valk to have, but giving warriors (or hell, thieves, we hit hard too) a free 100 hps/round at levels is a bit much.
Don't be stupid - we have politicians for that

Not if your druid... it's called "sleeping in an outdoor vault." :twisted:

80% of the time I'd rather sleep than have my hp turned into effective ma using spectral.

I think my hp regen is like 7 (s-e-v-e-n) when I stand up.

yes i was

its not the skill thats overpowered, its the proc thats poorly written.
the easy fix would be to get rid of all the storm giant procs and replace them with mage procs that have a realistic amount of mana they can cast.
i imagine most people would find that undesirable however.
