So I'm a little late with this, but I guess we're supposed to have a thread for some ideas as far as the spell consolidation goes. Personally, I don't know of many spells that really can be consolidated without messing something else up.

I suppose one idea would be the consolidation of all our 1 minute recast CAs, but that poses a problem because if something like that were to happen we would have to end up with a single 1 minute recast bow attack that does 12k+ damage. I wouldn't want this because of the loss of procs and such, as well as ruining any synergy between focus aim and our 1 minute abilities. I would love for things to be consolidated if it led to us being less reliant on 1 minute recasts and some shitty short recast CAs. What I would really want is to have some of our abilities be +damage and consume an autoattack, or something similar. But, that won't ever happen.

Asismii

honed and instinct? maybe...

ummm

some kind of crazy longblade/ranger blade combo..... like.. does dmg, puts into stealth, for 0.25s.. applies ranger blade on termination doing dmg

maybe hawk dive and a (less crappy) stream shot idea

primal agility and cloak would be nice, but i dont always want my hate reducer on.. so not sure about that one.. can also throw in pathfinding perhaps...

thats all i can think of atm

ya that long blade/ranger blade idea would be nice

Crychtonn - Bylar

The only ones I can see being combined in a useful way would be:

Cloak buffs added to offensive stance
Cloak buffs added to defensive stance
Defense debuff and snare combined

I wouldn't want Primal combined as there are times you don't want it on.

Asismii

yea i dont either, but it was an idea...

not sure if i would like my snare attached to devitalizing arrow, because then i wouldnt be able to use it on the run, and would make it a bit harder to kite. unless it was leg shot and devit arrow, then it wouldnt really matter

Not snare and devitalizing arrow. Snare and our defensive debuff (sorry I forget the name).

Skaer

Triple Shot and Precise shot, and Lunging Joust and the Melee dot which I can't remember the name.

I also don't think they're putting buffs into consideration, this spell consolidation is so that players can be lazy and still preform. Fuck SOE.

well if they include aa ca's in this new set up intox and poison combionation(or whichever the one is u cast for the poison debuff if the mobs is poisoned) would be a nice consolidation
also would like to see focus and killer instinc combined with killer instant duration.. but that will probley never happen

Cover Fire and Vines would be nice combined, and Arrow Rip + Mortal Reminder would work a little nicer than Mortal + lunging, that way the dot can tick longer and wont screw with the root duration.
Shocking Thrust also could be consolidated to maybe ember strike or something, I rarely can work both of them into a rotation.

I'm really hesitant about changing any ranged CA's tho, IMO there arent enough of em as it is. But Amazing Shot + Devitalizing would be the only 2 I could see combining. The damage on either one is just so low for their reuse time.
Focus aim is just fine too, I love it as it is. (except that it waits till its done to count down its reuse ).
