virgowars Posted February 21, 2013 Share Posted February 21, 2013 (edited) I've seen some new abilites people have put out in video's for the level 55 cap. But what about these from one of their previews of the expansion? Showing an Assassin with a new saber spin ability that looks really nice Clip i'm specifically talking about is around the 30 second mark. I haven't seen this in any of the new ability previews, is available? Is it a new talent ability rather than a level ability? Please god don't let this have been cut, i've been leveling an Assassin just for this ability because it reminds me so much of one of my favorite SWG animations.

Altheran Posted February 21, 2013 Share Posted February 21, 2013 I understand you. I'd rather have the "Whirlwind Strikes" shown in the old preview video than the "ninja teleport" the PTS gives us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lionflash Posted February 21, 2013 Share Posted February 21, 2013 Probably just didn't make the cut. Every class got one (1) new ability. I wonder what other abilities BW was tossing around for each AC. A channelled AoE melee ability doesn't seem as useful/needed/cool factor as a teleport.

Phase Walk cool in PvP, and useless for PvE. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LordRahlik Posted February 22, 2013 Share Posted February 22, 2013 AoE melee ability can be useful in PvE/PvP. Phase Walk cool in PvP, and useless for PvE. No, you are wrong. It's a very similar ability to the Warlocks ability in WoW and when it was useful in PvE it was GOLDEN. But I agree with you that it's very few times it is useful in PvE, but when it is... oh boy.... it's the best ability EVAH! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chuixupu Posted February 22, 2013 Share Posted February 22, 2013 I can think of a lot of instances where the teleport would would be very useful, such as in cases where you are required to move away from an AOE (like Gharj's Pounce). Also in the Dreadguard fight on HM, you can place your mark right at your safe spot, dps your heart out until the time is almost up and instantly port yourself there. Also probably fun for running away from Kelsara. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
publicenemies Posted February 22, 2013 Share Posted February 22, 2013 I like how they took all this class feedback and only gave us 1 new skill lol. They wonder why this game lost 1 mill in players sigh... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
itsmymillertime Posted February 22, 2013 Share Posted February 22, 2013 I like how they took all this class feedback and only gave us 1 new skill lol. They wonder why this game lost 1 mill in players sigh... changing rotations too much would mess with the rebalancing they did for 2.0 and cause people to relearn their toon, not fun.

Alec_Fortescue Posted February 22, 2013 Share Posted February 22, 2013 0:36... Hood down. *cries* The ability Knight used looked like the old stuff. Inquisitor's was curious one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kortenleb Posted February 22, 2013 Share Posted February 22, 2013 Teleport is one of the reasons I wish my main was an assassin. It was amazing on my Lock. Even for the fight for Xeno: teleport to panels for example I can think of millions of use for it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SentinelDranoel Posted February 22, 2013 Share Posted February 22, 2013 The abilities in the PTS are LEVEL 51 abilities. That does not mean we will not see level 55 abilities later. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
