Forgive my usage of "T" and other shortened words... "T" usually means Tier_1-3

I should also mention this uses the "Embermage" charge bar and is designed to rely on "No Mana-Cost" full charge bonus.

That's why the mana-costs can be high.

However that's why there are 2 skills that specialize in gaining 1-15% charge between ranks 1-15 so at full investment that would mean 7 hits gains a full bar.

@steffire3, ok, there's a couple elements in there that I might be able to work with! Thanks for posting this! I especially like the idea of skills being able to proc special events on hit, like the skills in your third tree. I've seen plenty of POE class builds that revolve around that idea, it would be neat to incorporate that into Torchlight. I'm also considering making the Wizard into something else besides a Wizard, I'll have to check POE builds to get some more inspiration there. Just a fair warning though, when I'm making a class, usually I want there to be a variety of different skills that have different mechanics, it seems like the trees that you made all revolve around one type of ability, like the first tree seems to be all about breath weapon attacks. While that sounds really cool, it doesn't match the style of the other classes that I've made. I hope you understand. By the way, have you ever considered learning how to mod? You seem to have a lot of unique ideas, maybe you should learn how to mod just to get these ideas flowing!

Also, the Embermage charge bar idea sound cool. I can work that into the class as well. Or maybe I'll incorporate that into the Monk a little more than what he already has.

It's a work in progress class that I'm planning... also forgive the obvious blandness of using the same attack skill too many times...

that is simply because I wanted to focus on the "effect" early in my planning then later I would write unique attack-skills to make them different.

In fact I was hoping to write the finished version but when you mentioned scrapping the 7th Class I felt I had to give you the "alpha" phase "laugh-out-loud".

Creatively: In fact I feel I have the opposite problem: too many ideas and no experience in "Guts"... On my smartphone I've already written a document containing all the info for 10 classes and the theme.

Minus the skills for the other 9 classes- I need to theory-craft the skills next and I'll take my time getting ideas-

I want my skills to be balanced for TL2's original numbers like 535 stat points and 132 skill points... also 1-15% to summon attack effects have proven to be a nice balance for me when I use the unique vanilla weapons with their special affixes.
