3. Turn Illusory Allies and Spellshield into spells worth spending hotbar space on. I don't care how.

4. More CC abilities without making it overpowered.

5. Shift main focus from DPS to CC(+Support).

I hate how useless spellshield is in PvE. PvP it's like one of the best spells, but having it work on only up to lvl 70 spells is retarded when even trash you fight in epic encounters is at least lvl 72.

That's not exactly how Spellshield works in PvE. It just scales down for mobs higher level than you, and scales up for those who are lower level. Meaning with M1 you get 91% vs. Level 70, probably 88% vs. Level 71, and so on that way, while you get 94% vs. Level 69, and so on. If you are Level 70 that is of course. I know it works similar to this because it works against Wuoshi's spells.

But hrm, yah power drains definitely need changing.

thanks for the info, I honestly had no idea it worked that way.

In addition to actually working on wuoshi's and others spells, back in DoF when we first got the spell, every time we leveled you'd see the % decrease. And this continued all the way up until 70 later on, and actually only fairly recently got changed to scale with level.

I miss the ability to power drain epics tbh.

I was thinking about an item that could cap your power at a certain amount, but I really can't see it going in considering it's one aa line for 2 classes. Maybe have it a weird quest item and instead of costing power, make it lower your crit% by 1 or 2
