I've been reading the thread on archers being squishy and wizzards doing more damage so i thought what if we do this.
Ability name: ?????
function: the archer casts a temporary shield that lasts for 2 seconds blocking 1 single hit without repercussions
give it a nice cd and almost 0 cast time so it's likle a reactive thing.
leveling.
Level 0 30 sec cd
Level 1 25 sec cd
Level 2 20 sec cd
Level 3 15 sec cd

this make archers able to survive sticky situations at certain moments whilst not turning invincible at all. also against a player whom does many succesive attakcs it can help atleast reduce some burst.
for example blocking an assassination attempt from an assassin.
blocking a fs from a warrior
a close range wizzard casting FF or dodge a sigle hit on blizzard to run out before the damage kicks in
against a tao you can use it to deny a knockback to run away or a mitigation tool.


Please think about this i think it'd be a really good addition to the game.

just no place for archers with this sun pot issue.

they need a way to survive.

we need to toe to toe to even do damage. (arrow barrage)

Call me crazy, but...
What if Attuned Body didn't ONLY regenerate HP?
Maybe Attuned Body could temporarily increase HP?
Maybe Attuned Body could decrease damage taken by a % OR a flat number, e.g. All hits are reduced by 10/20/30/40 damage.
Maybe Attuned body could have a Protection Ring effect? % of the damage archer takes is taken as MP.

I'm sure Fireshot does 200+ damage from right across the screen?

I don't think shields are very archer-ish, leave them to the wizards.

What about each globe is like a Sun potion (instant health heal of 150-200hp) ,

when you cast the spell you start with 3 globes, when you get hit, it heals you and removes a globe, put the spell on a cooldown of a minute or so.

This would prevent Archers being burst down so easy.

I thought it did MP?

Attuned Mind does MP. every Archer has this.
Attuned Body is a higher lvl archer spell that I haven't seen yet. This spell recovers HP over time, as it currently stands.
