[QUOTE="DeJoker, post: 7226982, member: 6907519"] Hmmm well that is an interesting endeavor but is it needed ?? Most of that, because its a true RPG, gets handled in the down time situations where your heal over time will not be any better than a clerics ability to heal over time in a downtime situation because those are often fast-forwarded over. Thus the heal over time would be of minimal use in a normal game setting -- where in an online MMOPG (there is so little role in that it is not worth applying the R) it can be useful. You need to step back and understand the game as a whole before designing a class for it. K.I.S.S. is a very important concept, I know as I have gone down the road of too much too many times. Basically what you are doing is creating another form of "magic" even though you are not calling it that and what the system definitely does not need is more magic systems with different rules to make it even more complex.
