ReinVI -> New ranged primary attacks for mages~ (2/15/2013 5:44:15)
|
NOTE~ this is a purely cosmetic suggestion and in no way affects balance in any way shape or form ok let's face it the only mage that would realistically be wailing on a opponent with a staff would be a BM ( since there insane/ beserkers ) but why would a techmage do it? there a master of energy spells and more.. why would they do something as "brutish" as hit someone with a staff? ( aside from it sometimes being funny ) why don't they make the primary attack for mages look something like overload except the source of the bolt is the staff ( use plasma bolt animation where you point the staff forward ) and the bolt comes out and strikes the intended target or something like that? this of course still can be blocked etc it just makes sense that a mage maintains range.. at least from a "realistic" stand point and it would make mages seem more magey if they did this. PS. for those who possibly still don't understand this does not make it a ranged attack ( like side/ aux ) it's still a *strike* so can be blocked and does strike damage no more no less
