Here’s my hope for the new elite spec. After studying nature’s master of camouflage, and finding an ancient tome detailing the shadow-shifting abilities of long forgotten assassins, you have learned to infuse your weapons with shadow ink and hide/travel through it.
Initiative is now ink gauge, all attacks spread ink that lasts 5s and depletes the gauge.
F1 steal: same as before but refills ink gauge, leaves an ink trail and doesn’t give stolen bundles
F2 you’re a squid now!: toggle to allow quick movement through ink. You are invisible while hiding in ink, but can still be hit. Ink recharges faster while swimming through it.
Staff skills:
1 – strike your foe, leaves behind puddles of ink
2 – fling shadow ink at your foe, blinding them and leaving a trail of ink between you and your target (range 900)
3 – sweep at your targets legs, crippling them. If they are immobilized, causes knockdown
4 – whack your target in the head, causing vulnerability
5 – leap to your target bringing along a torrent of ink that damages and blinds all nearby enemies on landing (range 1200, uses all available ink, minimum 50%, damage proportional to ink consumed)
Traits:
Minors?
Major:
Identity crisis: cause aoe confusion when you switch forms (5s icd)
That’s all I got so far.
