    Well I would love to summon a huge army of undead but that maybe a bit much. If I had to pick one that is "reasonable" I would like to summon a wight that could level up and equip gear.

    The dead do not squabble as this land’s rulers do. The dead have no desires, petty jealousies or ambitions. A world of the dead is a world at peace

    Yeah I was driving so couldn't do mine until now. For necromancer mine would be blood rain. A AoE that gives one of 3 random plagues. 1 Blood fever that causes that target to take x amount of damage and cause a bleed effect internally. 2 vommiting plague causing a target to be slowed and vomit in a cone and spreading the plague if struck by it and leaving a dot behind. Madness plague causing the target to attack the closet thing to them.

    I have this idea, where the bard is kind of like the Mesmer in GW1. Tons of debuffs like manaburn, stamina burn, crippling, daze and bleed

    Mage:

    Meteor Shower: For x duration, meteors fall from the sky on the selected area, causing AoE fear.

    Electric body: Turns the caster into electric charge, gives immunity against physical attacks and allowing the player to hide or travel at lightning speed through conductive objects, including the environment and other characters.




    In a serious note:
    It bothers me the fact that most mage skills in MMOs aren't involving the character itself. They just stand still and cast magic. At least that's what we've seen in Alpha 0.

    Earth/nature element should involve plants and weather as well, or even utilizing from the corpse of the dead. Just controlling the ground is boring.

    Light & Dark element should involve the stars as well, not only time and space.

    Black Desert and Dragon Nest managed to make mages very fun. Both are action combat, though.


    The Levitation magic in early AoC videos is a good example. want to see the torch too

    That is because of the overall fantasy of mages in d&d... Wizards are those that channel magic externally, through incantations and rituals, and lob fireballs through the air, while sorcerers are those that channel magic through their body.
    Channeling magic through your body would also mean that you yourself would be closer to the danger, and a melee mage with devastating magic is too op tbh.

    Even for a 10min cd, that is pretty strong xD. Make it so that people wont be able to interact with everything else and cant cast or attack during the duration and it would be kinda ok? :'D

    That would not really work in PvP though ;D (and it would be brokenly op as well xD)
    How about:
    Spell: Precognition
    Description: Caster sees through the veil of time, foreseeing the near future. Raises the dodgechance of the caster for 10sec by 100%. CD: 3min

    Yeah it's meant for PvE; it could be one of the special utility spells each class gets to predict guard/mob movement to sneak past areas. Just going for something a bit different than a buff/debuff/damage spell :)
