Incidentally, I love the shadow-named talents like shadow dance and shadow step.<br /><br />On the other hand, maybe shadows, making stealth more difficult, would allow it to be more powerful.Klepsacovichttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07915576683657376929noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5462978744516866472.post-35865822736527073672010-06-25T10:21:47.704-05:002010-06-25T10:21:47.704-05:00I always played D&D Rogues as toolboxes; they ...I always played D&D Rogues as toolboxes; they had a lot of things they could do, not just be slight and sneaky backstabbity machines. I'd love to see some of that noncombat utility in MMOs... or even some expanded combat utility like your interrupt notion.<br /><br />I'd also like to see shadows being useful as a real environmental mechanic, like the Thief games... but that's perhaps asking too much for an MMO.Teshhttp://tishtoshtesh.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5462978744516866472.post-36743485164771007672010-06-23T12:58:14.161-05:002010-06-23T12:58:14.161-05:00@Dorgol: Maybe we haven't considered that the ...@Dorgol: Maybe we haven't considered that the mobs are using the same techniques to spot stealthed players as we use to spot black holes, including their distortion of everything near them. What I'm trying to say is you're fat.<br /><br />@Dwism: If you've played TF2, you might see that I'm trying to adapt a bit of how the spy works. In direct combat they are garbage, but they excel at disabling and destroying structures as well as backstabbing otherwise hard to kill enemies.Klepsacovichttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07915576683657376929noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5462978744516866472.post-15024286286904423002010-06-23T10:00:37.081-05:002010-06-23T10:00:37.081-05:00Sounds really cool to be honest.
