i think acolytes should be able to have some kind of small aoe skill because were the only class without one and we only have 1 main attack so i think it would be cool if we could have an aoe attack.

Yea we do need an aoe >.< since our only aoe skill is major heal. [Whice wont work at all if you tried to aoe]
And all we can use to figth is IQ ghost steel and Oblivion.[even thouge those are more for stronger enemies and stuns]
Plus for some aco like me when we get bored like me we somthimes make a fun litil train of mobs doing 1 damage ^.^ then someone kills theme -.-

Technically, Acolytes (Clerics) get Major Heal which is considered AoE but you're obviously speaking of an attacking AoE. I personally don't think they should because they're the supporter class. The only possible use I can see is a really short ranged one to defend themselves from a mob or something.

Edit: Uhh... I posted too late.

Well I understand the Support class bit, but a stun Aoe, like an AoE spirit would be good. (And would keep us alive too.)

Aco's are designed to be absolutely the weakest class.
I don't think aco's need AoE attacking skills... aco's are supposed to stress purely on supporting other people in their party. Though we are awfully weak and fragile, we are still highly appreciated. I'm happy with that fact.

I second that. Too many times have I been aggroed by more than one mob.XD

I think it would be cool to have a little AOE skill, but have it obtained at a high lvl so a partyless aco can still have a chance to gain some exp. Acos are a supportive class, but they lvl up the slowest. An aoe could help lessen that.

i agree with night ^^
an aoe attack COULD be fun, or maybe undead monsters.. but a aoe spirit would help ALOT~

The only reason I'll agree is because of the AoE Spirit idea. o.O

AoE Spirit would be cool. Maybe they can even fix it so it IS "Spirit" and not "Sprit" whatever that is... But, we'd need a cool name for the skill. I'm not jumpin around sayin "AoE Sprit !!!" It should be somethin like Soul Drain. AoE Quake would be nice too... It's be cool to see a group of poyos run by and say "Fissure !!!" Then an imaginary rockslide come down.

what about a defencive aoe attack like apprentices frost? hmm im not sure o.o maybe that would be good but normally in parties if you need to use it the tank will aoe breaking it or if not attacking them all might that might make them attack you so
. . . . not so sure i just kno i dont think we need it but might be nice

Like I said, I get the whole support class bit, but an AoE Spirit would be a great skill for us guys. It would help us to run away if we ever got mobbed, or if we having an AoE duo with a squire, or rogue, we could probably help gathering mobs while they went off for a repot. (The latter is assuming you can tank, and have very, very good gears.)

Aoe spirit, that sounds better than aoe attack. I remember when major heal didn't wanna work (oh god what a nightmare >_>) and I had to spam it like crazy...but a Aoe spirit migh have come in handy.

I agree with the AoE Spirit idea... it'd save a lot of aco/cleric lives in situations like tank getting dc or unexperienced aoer or one not used to the speed that +6 shoes give (like me) and sometimes lose the mob.... also *cough*DoT Skill for templars*cough* xD

Adios!

I highly disagree with an Offensive (damaging) AoE, as they are a healer class and aren't supposed to AoE themselves anyways...

However, a mass binding spell (Frost and Brambleway and etc...) i would agree to. Like alot of members said, like a mass spirit stun with no dmg. That will be good when all too often the AoEr suddenly dies and all the mobs go for the poor aco trying to run away like there is no tomorrow. A mass Spirit would increase the likeness of a Aco to surive an onslaught like that.

If that will be implanted, im saying at lv71 or lv66, where most ppl get their AoE spells.

^Agreed
Aoe buff, that's asking for too much now:p Even though buffing gets irritating in huge parties and your the only cleric ._. But I think we can handle the buffing. And I'm not even sure if they(Outspark) will listen us >.<

i want stun aoe more than the ability to heal, it'll mean we live longer ^^

So are we all cool with the fact that an AoE spirit would be good for acos and not damage game balance or class balance?

Kairi13
08-30-2008, 01:25 PM
yeah but does it matter its not like there going to give us new skills it wouldnt be fair

I'm so tired of dieing all the time and not being able to lvl up as fast as the other classes just bc acos r used for healing (wat some ppl think). we acos need atleast 1 aoeing skill ;>_>

Kairi13
08-30-2008, 02:23 PM
or go disc cause its probably not gonna happen i dont think xenepic for acos has an aoe skill so i dont think we will either =/

Nights_Fang
08-31-2008, 02:09 AM
Well I think in Xenepic Acos are capable of soloing and not completely lame **** party dependant. So the lack of an AoE skill may not necessarily be a bother. (correct me if I'm wrong)

What if we can aoe n support? PPL can we have both?

Well I think the spirit aoe is a good idea, How about an aoe version of howling for a support aoe?
