Does this 100% increased damage in PvP to anyone using Mana-Forged Barrier seem like one of the devs got wrecked in pvp by someone using it, and decided to give everyone that used it a big middle finger? Because that's what that is...

Can we please get a keybind for "Target Next Enemy"? I'm assuming it was removed for some reason... maybe you all don't like tab targeting... but I do. Without Target Next Enemy, you can't cycle through targets, and it's quite cumbersome, and, dare I say, clunky.

Anyone know of an addon like moveanything (or a version of the actual moveanything) that is capable of moving the LFG window? The one I found works with a lot of windows but not the LFG window, as it appears to be a custom ascension LFG window.

I know this is probably a fruitless venture on my part, but any way we could get the above mentioned skills (at least the two shield slam abilities: SS, & SoR) without the requirement of having to use their respective stances? (i.e. Defensive Stance & Righteous Fury, respectively)

I'd just like to have a little more shield viability with Mana Forged Barrier, and honestly the two slam abilities seem like they would work perfectly with the Battlemage talent capstone ability, from the arcane mage tree.

@Nevaduck Yeah that's cool too. (I've seen at least one other ability that said "requires defensive stance or righteous fury," so I don't see why that would be an issue) I was specifically referring to Mana Forged Barrier though, since the ability to weave melee attacks in between your spellcasts with Battlemage capstone ability seems like it would go very well together. (at least for those mage tanks that are using a shield) Always wanted a mage tank that used a shield when I played wow, but the shield in Project Ascension as far as I can tell, is only there for xtra armor, and being able to passively block attacks when using Mana Forged Barrier as your tanking stance. Allowing shield slam and shield of the righteous to be used in conjunction with MFB & Battlemage Capstone would just make it a little better imho.

(I would say Shield Block from warrior Prot tree too but I feel like I'm pushing it with just Slam and Righteousness)

@Gulron Could always go int main stat and stack a fair amount of str via gear. I don't even understand why the skills are so limited. It's kind of frustrating, when you have in mind that you're going to be able to mix and match all the different skills and talents. I like a lot of stuff they've done with synergies. But a lot of the limiting stuff seems arbitrary to me.

Yeah I'm not sure if this should be posted here or in the bugtracker... but why is this mob so tiny? He looks like a noncombat pet. When I initially tamed him I thought the game had bugged out and he had disappeared... he's so tiny.... like, ashamedly tiny. TOO. Tiny. I get it, you had people complaining that pets were too big... but this is just overkill. Damn thing would be hard pressed to kill a mouse.

EDIT: Rereading this I see that I may have come off as a douchebag. That was unintentional. I was merely attempting to convey my observations.

@BW4RE

These are just guesses, but I had wanted to experiment with something similar. I have an Arcane Gunslinger, so I might do just that soon. But here are some talents I was looking at.
(Also, keep in mind that Arcane Gunslinger relies heavily on spell damage)

I'm going to list talents that buff Arcane Shot, because there is an enchant called Arcane Infusion that allows Arcane Shot to trigger Missile Barrage, imho it's a must have for A.G.

This might be too much to handle, but these are just the talents, and some skills, I wanted to experiment with while Intellect was chosen as primary stat. You obviously can't choose them all, so take a gander and see what you can come up with. This isn't a list of every viable talent, or skill. Just sharing my thoughts on the subject. Hope it helps.

Some Intellect/Agility based talents I wanted to mess around with:
[Combat Experience]
[Hunting Party]
[Thundering Strikes]
[Demonic Pact] - If you're using a Demon pet
[Demonic Knowledge] - Same as above, & points might be better spent elsewhere
(honestly, I'll probably not post anymore pet related talents, as there are many pros and cons with all of them)
[Enlightenment] - maybe
[Lunar Guidance]
[Mental Strength]
[Mind Mastery]

Arcane Based Talents:
[Missile Barrage] - A must have
[Arcane Empowerment]
[Arcane Flows] - If using Arcane Power or Arcane Orb skill. Arcane Orb is a 100% chance to proc your Missile Barrage with 3 points in M.B. talent, which is an essential proc for A.G.
[Arcane Instability]
[Arcane Meditation]
[Arcane Mind]
[Arcane Concentration] + [Arcane Potency] - (wouldn't use one without the other for A.G. build)
[Arcane Stability] - Chance to hit, mana reduction, reduced pushback
[Arcane Subtlety] - PvE (reduced mana, threat, increased range)
[Cobra Strikes] - Meh, not unless you're going for pet based, probably not recommended
[Ferocious Inspiration]
[Furor]
[Hunting Party] - Mentioned above
[Improved Arcane Shot]
[Improved Insect Swarm] - Increases arcane dmg vs targets w/Moonfire (Moonfire can also trigger Missile Barrage)
[Improved Steady Shot] - Def this talent, and Steady Shot skill
[Incineration] - If using Arcane Blast
[Lethal Shots]
[Lock And Load] - If using Black Arrow, or any traps mentioned in talent
[Marked For Death] - If using Hunter's Mark
[Netherwind Presence]
[Piercing Shots] - Reduced healing + bleed on target
[Rapid Killing]
[Spell Impact]
[Spell Power]
[Survival Instincts]
[Thrill Of The Hunt]
[Torment The Weak] - Dmg bonus to target afflicted by movement impairment

@Zyxxel Honestly, as far as I've seen 4-5k dps at 65 ilvl is pretty good lol. But yeah I'd just suggest finding a legendary enchant you like and going with that as far as a build. Before committing to it though, if you're on Area 52 I'd check and see if it's fully implemented. I made that mistake with Wind Rager, unfortunately. It's supposed to be fully implemented after the season or something... truthfully I can't see any reason it isn't fully implemented now... but them's the breaks I guess.

@Rakzar Honestly, I don't think "Free Pick" is free pick enough... it's more like constrained pick.

@Eatmyswords Alot of that stuff has ways to be gotten around though, including stunlock, but only up to a point. Stunlock, and fear chain, especially without diminishing returns, (and even with really, because of the way damage scales here diminishing returns doesn't really do anything unless you're a tank class) are pvp killers. Meaning, it just makes pvp not fun for anyone who doesn't use them, leading to cookie cutter classes, and 90% of the skills being unviable in pvp.

Anyone know of an addon like moveanything (or a version of the actual moveanything) that is capable of moving the LFG window? The one I found works with a lot of windows but not the LFG window, as it appears to be a custom ascension LFG window.

I was checking my enchants page in hopes it contained within it's depths, a cool epic enchant that might change Flametongue Weapon into something similar to Earthliving Weapon, (but fiery!) that might go well with my Cauterizing Flames build. But, alas! My venture was fruitless. It would be a lot cooler if it did. (pretend I posted a picture of Matthew McConaughey wearing sunglasses and looking glib)

Just an idea.

@Taliesin Ah, I gotcha. Yeah I wasn't around for that. I had taken an extended hiatus.

@Taliesin Yeah I don't really understand it either. Unless it's to hamper the player for some kind of monetary reason.

As far as I can remember when Ascension first came out, it was PvP mandatory, with no real way to turn it off. Maybe they just hate PvEr's?

This mob is a rare spawn at the Wizard Row location in Netherstorm. Untamable, though he is an exact replica of the Mana Seekers that roam the immediate vicinity, with a slight color difference. Would be cool to be able to tame him.

(There are SOOO many elementals I wish we could tame that are unable to be tamed, but this one seems like a no brainer)
