Justice Adventurer Thieves

What changes would you make to Shadowers?

Basically, make your own revamp, because I'm sure we all disagree on at least [i]some[/i] of the changes Justice is going to cram down our throats. Obviously, this isn't going to make a difference, but hey, we can dream (and also, I'm bored).

[url=http://www.southperry.net/showthread.php?t=51790]Here are the actual Justice changes in case your name is Patrick, you're a starfish, and you live under a rock.[/url]

[header]Beginner.[/header]

No changes to skills already present.

[b]Add:[/b] Ultimate Stealth [Link Skill] [Max Level: 10]
Level 1: +5% Dodge chance. Upon successful dodge, +5% Critical rate for one second.

Link Skill is attainable upon job advancement to Chief Bandit at level 70. The Link Skill can be shared at level 150.

[header]First job.[/header]

[b]Remove:[/b] Nimble Body

[b]Justice changes:[/b] Dark Sight, Lucky Seven, Double Stab, Haste

[b]Add:[/b] Diversion [Active] [Max Level: 10]
Call upon your faithful allies to distract a group of monsters. If the de-aggro fails, this skill will still not re-aggro any monsters.
Level 1: 10% chance to de-aggro, 1 monster, 10% damage.
Level 5: 50% chance to de-aggro, 2 monsters, 50% damage.
Level 10: 100% chance to de-aggro, 3 monsters, 100% damage.

[header]Second job.[/header]

[b]Justice changes:[/b] Everything.

[header]Third job.[/header]

[b]Add:[/b] Assaulter [Active] [Max Level: 20]
Attacks a single monster 4 times with incredible power and speed, possibly Stunning the monster. Ignores 100% PDR.
Level 1: MP -14, Damage: 198%, Stun Chance: 23%, Stun Duration: 2 sec
Level 10: MP -18, Damage: 218%, Stun Chance: 50%, Stun Duration: 3 sec
Level 20: MP -24, Damage: 240%, Stun Chance: 80%, Stun Duration: 4 sec; Stun Chance on Bosses: 3%, Stun Duration on Bosses: 2 seconds.
Assaulter's teleport effect can now be used without a monster if you tap the skill key twice.

No, that is not a typo on 3%. It would have to be small to avoid being OP, especially if you have more than one Shadower on a boss run, but I think it would be a nice perk for Assaulter.

[b]Add:[/b] Band of Thieves [Active] [Max Level: 20]
Summons allies to attack multiple monsters nearby. Each ally attacks twice. Animation renewed to reflect each thief attacking twice, although the actual thieves are the same. Vertical range has been increased, horizontal range stays the same.
Level 1: MP -20, Damage: 220%, Max Monsters Hit: 4
Level 10: MP -24, Damage: 240%, Max Monsters Hit: 5
Level 20: MP -30, Damage: 260%, Max Monsters Hit: 6

Reason for increasing the number of hits is twofold; 1) more coin generation, and 2) it's harder to hit cap with.

[b]Add:[/b] Aggravate [Active] [Max Level: 10]
Aggravate a group of monsters by throwing a pebble at them, causing them to speed up greatly and chase you. Tapping the skill key twice will negate Aggravate's effect on all monsters you cast Aggravate on within the map. (That means that if another Shadower is in the map, you won't cancel Aggravate's effects if another Shadower cast it.)
Level 1: Damage: 100%, Max Monsters Hit: 3, speed of monster increased by 40% for 5 seconds.
Level 3: Damage: 100%, Max Monsters Hit: 4, speed of monster increased by 120% for 5 seconds.
Level 5: Damage: 100%, Max Monsters Hit: 5, speed of monster increased by 200% for 5 seconds.
Level 7: Damage: 100%, Max Monsters Hit: 6, speed of monster increased by 280% for 5 seconds.
Level 9: Damage: 100%, Max Monsters Hit: 7, speed of monster increased by 360% for 5 seconds.
Level 10: Damage: 100%, Max Monsters hit: 10, speed of monster increased by 400% for 5 seconds.

[b]Add:[/b] Chakra [Active] [Max Level: 10]
Uses MP to recover HP and provide a small buff. Cast time has been cut by two-thirds (buh-bye awfully long animation), and you can now use it any time you want to, not only when you're under 50% HP. Cooldown 10 seconds.
Level 1: MP -90, heals 35%-65% HP, +500 DEF and M. DEF.
Level 10: MP -30, heals 80%-100% HP, +1000 DEF and M. DEF.

[b]Change:[/b] Pickpocket
Everything remains the same except a small addition. You can choose the color of the mesos that are dropped when [b]you[/b] attack. There are twelve color choices [brown, gold, orange, red, blue, green, pink, purple, dark grey, light grey, black, silver] and you can only explode mesos of the color you chose. If there is more than one Shadower with the same color chosen in the same map, then colors will be randomised.
Your personal color will [b]always[/b] be displayed in the outline of Pickpocket's buff. The mesos with your chosen or randomised color will always be displayed on top of other mesos for enhanced visibility.

[b]Change:[/b] Meso Explosion
Everything remains the same except you only explode mesos in front of you, and monsters get knocked back in the direction you're facing.

[b]Remove:[/b] Dark Flare, Edge Carnival, Muspellheim

[b]Justice Changes:[/b] Shadow Partner, Greed, Venom, Radical Darkness

I've never believed Shadowers should have a Rush skill, and I'll stand by that belief. Aggravate will serve as a means of getting the mob to you.

[header]Fourth job.[/header]

[b]Change:[/b] Assassinate [Active] [Max Level: 30]
Attack an enemy's vital spots four times, dealing massive damage. The final hit is guaranteed to be a critical hit. When used during Dark Sight, Assassinate will do bonus damage. When five Killing Points are available, Assassinate will deal extra damage.
Everything remains the same except a five-second cooldown is added, and Shadow Partner's hits deal exactly the same damage as the hits they clone. Damage cap increased to 1,999,999 for Assassinate only. 20% chance for the final hit to break [i]that[/i] cap as well and hit up to 2,499,999.

Reason for the cooldown is because in this hypothetical revamp, both Assaulter and Savage Blow have been buffed, so there's really no need to have a spammable Assassinate.

[b]Change:[/b] Shadow Shifter [Passive] [Max Level: 30]
Grants a chance to summon a wooden doll to take damage in your place.
Everything remains the same except you can now choose the face/emotion to display upon a successful Shadow Shift. (yeah, you can get your f3, Phil)

[b]Change:[/b] Dagger Expert [Passive] [Max Level: 30]
After a long period of time of wielding a dagger, you have learned every secret there is behind using one, giving you ultimate control over the weapon. +% bonuses are multiplicative. Range bonus to Savage Blow upon one point in the skill.
Savage Blow range: [url=http://www.southperry.net/maplerange.php?ltx=-130&lty=-100&rbx=0&rby=0&size=1024]130%.[/url]
Level 1: Dagger Mastery: 56%, Weapon ATT: +1, Accuracy: +1%, Avoidability: +1%, +1 hit to Savage Blow, +3% damage to Savage Blow, +2% damage to Assaulter
Level 30: Dagger Mastery: 70%, Weapon ATT: +30, Accuracy: +15%, Avoidability: +15%, +2 hits to Savage Blow, +30% damage to Savage Blow, +15% damage to Assaulter

[b]Add:[/b] Trusted Leadership [Passive] [Max level: 20]
All that training with your band of thieves has paid off, as their potency has increased. +% bonuses are multiplicative. Renews animation of BoT when this skill reaches level 10; new animation retains the same thieves but they look more battle-hardened and professional. Steal effect does not work on bosses. Increases range of BoT upon level 1.
Range: [url=http://www.southperry.net/maplerange.php?ltx=-300&lty=-120&rbx=150&rby=50&size=1024]300%.[/url]
Level 1: BoT +1% damage, Shadow Partner hits 1% more damage when used with BoT, 1% chance to Steal.
Level 20: BoT +20% damage, Shadow Partner hits 10% more damage when used with BoT, 40% chance to Steal, Band of Thieves can now activate Venom.

[b]Add:[/b] Ninja Ambush [Passive] [Max Level: 10]
The individual members of your band of thieves also have friends. Every time you use Band of Thieves, there is a chance that a group of these friends will pop out of nowhere and hit the closest monsters within a large area of effect. Does not stack with itself, but does stack with Venom and other DoTs. Animation renewed so the attackers aren't midgets.
Range: [url=http://www.southperry.net/maplerange.php?ltx=-400&lty=-350&rbx=400&rby=250&size=1024]400%.[/url]
Level 1: 10% proc rate, 100% damage on up to 3 monsters for 5 seconds.
Level 3: 14% proc rate, 120% damage on up to 4 monsters for 6 seconds.
Level 5: 18% proc rate, 140% damage on up to 5 monsters for 7 seconds.
Level 7: 22% proc rate, 160% damage on up to 6 monsters for 8 seconds.
Level 9: 26% proc rate, 180% damage on up to 7 monsters for 9 seconds.
