Return of Reckoning

new Blackguard class mechanic
Guys, come on: When dropping below 30% you automatically use the highest level health potion in your inventory.

SwordMaster - Gusting Wind becomes Cyclonic Vortex

AOE punt -> AOE Pull. Same range. Can re-purpose a tactic (e.g. Bend the Winds) to switch the ability if want to keep the original one around.

That could be a good gear ability addition.

Yeah If you remove the ability to guard with a two handed weapon

What if guard was only half as effective?

I would be okay with that -if- they dont stack.

Here's an idea ...
Add in Crit talismans like we had on live. Everything is already there in the game.

Lore friendly ideas
WE/WH grp healing; AoE finishers heal for 100% of dam caused everyone in group. Lore friendly because WE's deal with potions and WH's are basic clerics.
The WE is already group/wb friendly, just need to find reasons to include WH's into grps/wb's

That has been tried already. It didn't work out well.

completing a plan/stance dance on a BO/SM should add a stacking short duration dmg boost

the player should be awarded with more dmg from cleverly using change plan/change stance to rapidly complete combos

this should be a mechanic on top of the plan/stance system instead of coming from a tactic

I could see tying this to the Blade Buffs that BO/SM use so they have multiple options. Stat Sealing Buff gives small Damage Boost. Wounds Boosting one grants small HoT. Resist Boosting one gives toughness? I dunno what buffs they should be but I feel like just having it be a damage boost on a tank seems a bit strange.
