Mage gameplay float/barrier skill augment combinations

ArchivedUser

In the mage gameplay video start around 45 secs in you see the mage drag an ability and use the skill to levitate or float in mid air. Later this skill is used when she falls down a hole and protect her self from falling rocks and seems that this skill is augmented to also be a barrier.
I believe this mage's secondary class is tank; which would explain the other barrier type skill she uses to block a monster's attack. What other secondary class augments combinations do you think will be added to this float skill? For example a Rogue augment added to this "float" skill couldtake away the barrier but when you float you would appear to be invisible or stealth for the duration.

I was wondering about the floating in mid air barrier skill from the vid. as well. To me it looks like a cutscene when this all takes place, so i'm thinking it might just be part of the cutscene for the dungeon and not an active skill. I'm hoping not ofc.

There could be a number of things really. There could be "augments" for traveling (flying or speed), DPS (explosions maybe?), tank, group defense (dropping shields for your group members), etc.

Traveling/group defense would be active skills and the others I imagine would be passive with a cooldown possibly.

Would not be the best idea to show an ability in a cutscene that an actual character could not perform in the game :)
