  • Issue: Perma-Shadow Forming. Its broken, always has been, always will be. With a mere handful of skills that remove this, most of them impratical to carry except for this one skill, Perma-Shadow Forming is something that NEEDS to be removed from the game to preserve the balance. Shadow Form+ Deadly Paradox+ Arcane Echo= sin that is untouchable by the vast majority of skills/builds in use (and even those not in use)
  • Suggestion: Make it non-echoable, make Deadly Paradox not effect it, or change some functionalty of the skill to make it not possible to maintain for ridiculous durations, or change the recharge to 130 secs, or even reduce the duration of the skill.

  • Suggestion: 5/.25/10 "All your enchantments are removed. For 0..5 seconds you are enchanted with Shadow Form. If Shadow Form lasts it's full duration all your shadow arts skills are disabled for 10 seconds. While enchanted with Shadow Form spells against you fail and attacks against you miss. Shadow form ends prematurely if you use a skill or attack."
i see dervs using this

+20% enchant mod=6 sec duration, then skill removing for bonus, then recasting after recharge,Annoying And Deadly 03:15, 3 April 2008 (UTC)

  • Suggestion: " Make it a stance so that deadly paradox no longer works on it.Reduce recharge to 10 secunds as suggested by jigoku.Make it last 2..5...7.And remove the synergy with arcan echo and dwarven stance so it cant be kept up anymore.Drop the health loss but make shure that when this stance ends the players skills are disabled for 4 secunds.
no, then 1000s of players farming builds will be screwed, the point of this skill is to give sins a point of immortality in order to pull of a spike, when used like this, u have to put 16 in shadow arts to minimize death risk, that leaves 103 att points to put into your chain, its also used your elite slotAnnoying And Deadly 01:28, 24 March 2008 (UTC)

Pls like anyone prefers using a sin to farm over a monk,ele or just a warrior !,sins arent made for farming and they shouldnt have skills solely to use so you can abuse or farm with them.The idea is to balance it and if you drop the disabling it would be fine.Also continue this discussion on the TALK page.Lilondra 11:09, 27 March 2008 (UTC)

Annoying and deadly's issue

  • suggestion: 10/1/40 "For 5..17..21 seconds you are enchanted with shadow form, all attacks against you miss and all hostile spells targeted against you fail, when a spell fails you lose 5..3..2 energy or shadow form is disabled for an additional 10..5..4 seconds, when it ends you lose all but 15..70..80 health

that fixes most people problems with it, sure it can be done with only arcane echo but the energy drain will prevent most people from using it effectively against spell casters, this would be a buff and a nerf, requires rediculous energy lvls but is more forgiving if you cant maintain it

  • Suggestion

try dropping hp loss, shortening recharge to 15 sec duration to 1..10..12, and have it be skill, shadow step to target foe, for 1..10..12 seconds all attacks against you miss, and all spells fail, when shadow form ends, you return to you original location and lose all energy.
