As for feed back, I'm curious if:
Buff enhancer ( boost buffs by 15 levels @ level 150) will stack with brute strength ( boost enchant and fury berserk buffs by 30 levels @ 150)
Ie:
Would certain buffs be boosted by 45 levels? Making them level 220?
Also how would an increase to fury caster ( buff master II ) work into the equation? Would it boost skills even further as well?
I love the pvp related buffs especially defense and armor booster, except for the idea that when there is 0 xp loss a player can't be bountied.( 23: Artful Bandit )
A PvP hit is a PvP hit, bountyable ( in my opinion)
7. Defence booster : +0.05% per point to your Defense for each complete set equipped.
8. Armor booster : +0.05% per point to your armor for each complete set equipped.
34. Shield Wall :+0.1% per point to your defense for each complete set equipped.
Two of the same buffs there
LOVE the SE bonus boost and the precision buffs.
Vitality seems interesting if It's calculated after SC? But before wither and ageless
Edit: Also If fury and berserk buffs can be boosted by 30 levels couldnt other *level point* related buffs as well? Rage, rockskin, AOP, etc etc?

19. Heavy Weight : Adds 0.1% Damage per point when having a certain amount of gold in hand. (suggest 1000g per level).
5000g per level :!:

Or either put it as a fair minimum required level or as potion would be my suggestion

Big no to these new titan buffs (imobilize and titan status reducer) if you guys are planning on releasing them only for the End of Content dudes
Or either put it as a fair minimum required level or as potion would be my suggestion
Some of these will be potion only.

5000g per level :!:
Yeah that might be better - we're still tweaking the numbers as we implement and test them

1. Buff enhancer: Potion Only
5. Pride : Cute, but only useful to a very small amount of user.
7. Defence booster : Good, but overlaps with Coord Defense.
8. Armor booster : Good, but overlaps with Coord Defense
Probably Not Needed:
4. Trendy : Does not look good. Breaks Smashing Hammer, Coord Att, and Coord Def. And would also breaks new buffs like Defence Booster and Armor Booster.
6. Block : Overlaps with Force Shield. Doesn't look needed.
18. Allied Frenzy : Useless unless Assist gets a much higher activation chance.
19. Heavy Weight : This is a double-edge sword. It could encourage people to sell their gold at higher rate to reduce their gold fast after each hit.
23. Artful Bandit : So you're saying with this buff, attackers not only get 3 times more gold but also a chance to escape bounties? If it does, I would have to disagree with this buff.
24. Quick Attack : Overlaps with Swift Strike. First Strike is already strong as it is.
34. Shield Wall : Looks like a clone of Defense Booster.
39. Precision Strike: Looks useless. Complete opposite of the concept of hunting in FS, which is gets as much damage as you can. It probably support only Arterial Strike, but breaks all damage enhancing buffs.
The rests looks fine to me.

You know that when you get to 1600 - it means you'll hold 8 mil for that ?
....why not %tage the amount ? :
if i have 50% of that gold - i have 50% of the entitled damage ?

Hi there Everyone.
We now have a list of upcoming buffs that we'll be adding to the game. Some of these will be for the Skill Trees but others will be potion specific.
The list is as follows :
1. Buff enhancer: for every 50 points in the skill it adds 5 points to the buffs cast after. Would not work with Merchant or Treasure Hunter. (Potion only maybe?)
Yes potion would be cool(Not Inventable)
2. Armored Strike : 0.1% per point chance that your armor stat is reduced to zero and your damage is double
Nope because there's no entrench cast-able buff like nightmare visage and it will give big advantage for defensive setups too much. unless you make this buff only for creatures NOT PvP.
3. Brute Strength : For every 50 points allocated in this skill, your enchant item abilities, fury and berserk buffs are increased by 10 levels.
Not bad one maybe include Rage buff with these?
4. Trendy : +0.03% per point to all stats for each common item worn
.03% seems low maybe .05 could work.
5. Pride : Add duration epic potion every medal in player's bio.
Good one but make it for all potions .. as epic potions mostly for leveling..
6. Block : small chance that a player will take 0 damage in a combat round
Please No more pvp buffs work by chance
8. Armor booster : +0.05% per point to your armor for each complete set equipped.
Great
9. Gold foot : 0.05% per point Chance to consume 1000 gold instead of 1 stamina while moving.
hehe this buff i suggested i like it
10. Encouraging talk : 0.2% per point increase in mercenary stats when hired.
Not sure about this .. Its already easy to solo super elites.
11. Warcry : 0.2% per points increase in group stats. (Only PvE)
Same as above but could be helpful for poor low level players guilds
12. Immobilise Titan : +0.1% per point chance for titan not to move.
Great
13. Buff Master II: Increases the maximum percentage (above 100%) of the Fury Caster enhancement by .1% per point for half an hour.
Good
14. Swift Strike : .1% chance to strike first when another player initiated the fight (pvp)
Good buff for defender but make it long duration
15. Perfection : buff to give a chance of a craftable item being crafted perfect when invented.
Good
16. Deft Hands : At level 175, has a 10% chance on doubling the effects of the thievery enhancement. Master thief will not be affected by this. (pvp only)
Seems very little chance but good for double stolen gold
18. Allied Frenzy : (Assist really needs some tweaking) .A chance Assist will work with a player within +/-100 levels from you.
Don't know about this maybe tweak Assist buff we have already.
19. Heavy Weight : Adds 0.1% Damage per point when having a certain amount of gold in hand. (suggest 1000g per level).
I like this but why everything bonus damage ? i'd say .05% to all stats
20. Lady Luck : chance for a double roll on RNG for an item drop. Does not fire if conserve or death wish activates. Does not mean 2 drops are possible. Just an extra chance at getting a drop.
Great
21. Divine Glory : Holy Flame style buff for demon classed creatures.
Not needed Creatures already easy to kill
22. Short Circuit : Ignite or Holy flame style buff for Mechanical and Golem classed creatures.
same as above
23. Artful Bandit : PvP buff for the attacker, 3x gold stolen if MT does not fire, 2/3rd reduction of normal xp loss to target chance of causing no xp loss. Always fires when cast, annotated in log message to the target. If the target does not lose xp they may not bounty the hit. Chance of the no xp loss is based on level of buff.
Cool buff
24. Quick Attack : Increases the maximum percentage (above 100%) of the First Strike enhancement by +0.2% per point.
Not needed if we got Swift Strike buff
25. Greed : Increases the maximum percentage (above 100%) of the Master Thief enhancement by +0.1% per point.
Good
26. Hardened : 0.05% per point chance to prevent your opponent activating Shatter Armor.
Its already very little chance to active shatter armor.. no need for this i'd say.
27. Anchored : 0.05% per point Damage is added to HP.
Good
28. Guild Berserker : Increase the effectiveness of first strike, nullify or etc enhancements in GvG only.
Maybe make structure for this better.
29. Guild Saboteur : Decreases the effectiveness of the deflect, last ditch or etc buffs in GvG only.
Same as above
30. Croak : 0.2% increase to max green skin slayer enhancement
I Don't like buffs increase certain enhancements for pve or pvp.. it just increase randomness
31. Cloudy Inventor : Increases the maximum percentage (above 100%) of the Master Inventor enhancement by +0.2% per point.
No please that will kill value of everything inventable..
32. Cloud Crafter : Increases the maximum percentage (above 100%) of the Master Crafter enhancement by +0.2% per point.
Not bad
33. Epic Craft : +0.5% per point increase to Craft stat bonuses.
Good one
34. Shield Wall :+0.1% per point to your defense for each complete set equipped.
Why Armor booster bonus+0.05% per point?? you must be in love with defensive sets ? No please for this
35. Guild Buffer : x% of chance to spend 50% stamina buffing guild members.
Good
36. All For One : 0.1% per point increase to the SE set bonus stats.
Great this one i suggested too
37. Titan Slayer : +0.2% per point reduction of damage, attack, defence and armor to Titans.
They are easy to kill already maybe .1% could be fine
38. Vitality : +0.1% per point added to your HP for each complete set equipped.
Cool
39. Precision Strike - grants an 0.1% increase per point in XP gained when the hit that kills a monster is less than 10% more than what was needed. Rewards precise tuning of gear to monster.
Not bad
40. Precision Hit - grants a 0.1% increase per point in gold stolen when the hit that defeats the target player is less than 10% more than what was needed. Same general idea.
Seems complicated general idea and waste of skill tree?

34. Shield Wall :+0.1% per point to your defense for each complete set equipped.
Wonder if 1 of them were supposed to be for epics?
Many people asked for that type of buff including myself. Would make epics offline more useful besides stamina gain.

Its duplicate.. but would be cool if he remove shield Wall and kept Defence booster7. Defence booster : +0.05% per point to your Defense for each complete set equipped.

My prime concern is for the IMMOBILIZER TITAN BUFF, and to a lesser degree the buff reducing a titan's stats.
If this "immobilizer" is made a very low level buff, then okay or if a comment from Hoof in this thread is definite and that this will be a potion.
If not, here are my concerns:
a) Guilds could easily decide to not apply this buff outside their guild when they are titan hunting. That is their right - it's individual choice, but we've never had a buff that truly could decide the outcome of a titan hunt.
We have also never had a buff that could create discord amongst players, nor one that makes people feel less able to compete with others.
All of this can also in a sense be said of the titan stat reducer buff, but we can at least battle that with other buffs and pots, so as I think on it, I guess that's okay, and this is only really an issue when you're pushing your personal level limits on a titan.
It appears these buffs are ready to go and the immobilizer buff, but I sincerely hope HCS reconsiders this particular buff. I look at this buff and see it as one that was put forth for selfish motives only. Sorry to ramble, but I feel strongly on this.
On somewhat similar note, in regards to the ARTFUL BANDIT buff, I don't think it fits our fair play/sportsmanship to say that a 3x gold hit is not a bounty-able hit.

If you want to keep the level/skill reward thing going, stagger the skill points available over level increments. 0-100 = 150 skill points, 100-300 = 155, 300-500 = 160, 500-700 = 165, 700-900 = 170, 900-1100 = 175, etc., capping at say 200. Anyway, this is just an example, don't read too much into it as there are so many other factors that come in to play.
I dunno, maybe I've played too many other games over the years, and I shouldn't be comparing....but to me the current skill tree isn't right....one of the reasons I didn't level in 2012. Getting back into it now, I'd like to see a change but I doubt it can happen at this point.....
