Issue

Doesn't really make Air Eles more viable when anyone can spec 5 to make it work.

Suggestion

Scale the KD duration with Air Magic Attribute level, only reaching a 3 second knockdown at 13 Air Magic, otherwise has a 2 second KD.

We can't scale KD durations they all have to be hardcoded. Izzy @-'---- 18:35, 27 March 2008 (UTC)

Issue

This skill has been nerfed repeatedly because of secondary class abuse.

Suggestion

Increase the requirement from 5 Air Magic to 9. Increase the knockdown duration to 3 seconds. Possibly increase the recharge, but only if it starts being abused again.

The KD issue wasn't just because of secondaries, it was because of how powerful it is to take a character out of the game for 3 seconds. Ranged 3s KD's are something we needed to nerf. Izzy @-'---- 18:36, 27 March 2008 (UTC)
