Hi everyone, I was trying to make a prestige class(probably around 3 levels or so) that revolved around the aura abilities that reid gets in tales of destiny 2(tales of eternia) after passing those trials. If you have no idea what I'm talking about, I have some ideas for abilities and when they would be gained(I'm thinking each level has a increasing amount of prerequisites, with each one requiring one of those trials, so that the character gains levels in the prc at certain intervals)

Something that revolvs around using spell slots to use a few powerful abilities, maybe like this:

1st: Aura wall: cause nockback to a certain radius, deal damage, and stun(maybe gain around level 5-9 or so)

2nd: Aura sword: use spell slots to make (energy?) attacks on one person who was effected by aura wall(level 10-12)

3rd: Infinity revive(I think thats what it was called, don't remember): acts like emerald immolation(from the jade pheonix mage), except only use it when the character is reduced to 0 hp or below or something like that.(level 15 and up)

Also, a certain batch of class skills would be helpful too(so far I have knowledge and spellcraft, but thats it)

I refuse to help you on general principle because the way you write fills me with rage akin to the burning fires of a thousand suns, each of which is made out of other, lesser suns. That burn. With flames.

The flames are also on fire.





Which is a shame, because I really liked that game. For the record, it's Tales of Eternia (it was localized as "Destiny 2" because America hadn't seen any other Tales game at that point except for a fan-translated rom of Phantasia; this frustrates Tales fans to no end because there actually is a proper sequel to Tales of Destiny called Tales of Destiny 2...), the word is AURORA (it's RIGHT THERE IN THE FREAKIN' MENU... not to mention a huge part of the game's plot involves it, right from the very beginning), and the third skill is Aurora Wave (although depending on how you use it, the battle prompt displays it as Eternal Infinity, Undulation of the Whirling Light, or Infinity Revival; even in Eternia it's essentially a plot device rather than a special move as it did whatever you needed it to in very, very limited circumstances. It's actually quite easy to utterly forget about that move from the moment you get it until the moment you need it, or even longer than that if you leave Reid to the computer when it should be used (that's right, Darkness of the Outer Limits won't show up unless Reid's being controlled by a human. So if you feel like going nuts with Max or Farah, feel free, although Eternal Finality will own you if you leave Reid out of the battle altogether.).).

If someone else is more inclined to help you, I can at least show people what you're talking about (http://youtube.com/watch?v=GK5B3bXImC8). A higher-quality recording of it is here (http://youtube.com/watch?v=oYdVtBxr9YY) at roughly 45 seconds in (Ignore the repetitive tactics; if he didn't spam Rising Phoenix/Burning Phoenix, he'd have been hit by Arche (the spellcaster), and that video's all about not being hit. A somewhat less-skilled player would have wound up like this (http://youtube.com/watch?v=xbtI0-d8COU) instead.).

First, I am sorry that the way I write is insulting to you:P

2nd, I did know about the tales of eternia/tales of destiny 2 name thing, I just forgot about it when I posted and didn't get the chance to change it. About the name of the techniques, I haven't played the game in a while so I couldn't remember it correctly.

3rd, I mainly posted just to get some ideas on how I could mimic the abilities, and how people felt about the idea. And thanks for the links, but I will probably postpone this prc for a while until I can really focus on it.
