Negate Magic is one of the best utility Ultimates in the entire game...

There are so many better things to be looking at "fixing".

if u think its boring youre nuts. absorption field morph is so good in so many ways and is unique in its properties.

just think of something as simple and laughable as vet spindle. boss drops standard, I drop abs.field. bye bye standard and now we have his adds stunned too?? for almost 12 full seconds. that's the fight baby! done.

anytime theres junk on the ground or stunnable/silence-able mobs around, blammo!!

my sorc is only v3 but this ability is a stong contender for atronach imo. just depends if we need more dps or more utility for the situation.

No for a simple reason, all projectiles work with hitchecks and can't be slowed down in this game. So your idea couldn't work unless they redesign the game so that projectiles actualy have collision boxes instead of hitchecks.

And also another no, because Negate Magic has already unique fonctions in game. It remove lingering magical effects and buffs in the area of effect, it heals you every second with Blood Magic and the Synergy with Exploitation from Dark Magic and Ruffian from dual wield just makes this ability awesome on its own.

oh, that is unfortunate.
it is not really unique, well, maybe in this game yes but overall quite common and boring.
game is lacking spectacular looking abilities or ones that let you enjoy the gameplay with its unique perks. it is all about dmg this dmg that, less dmg this and less damage that.

First, you are going to edit what you just wrote, because our own minds might actualy surprise you, mind you.

Secondly if you understand this paragraph, right above, wich you completly ignored, you will also understand why your idea won't work unless the devs completly redesign the game mechanics, wich won't happen!

What you propose isn't unique either because those mechanics you are speaking about have been used several times in games before, so what's your point?

I do not get surprised easily.

I have not ignored it. 'oh, that is unfortunate' is my comment on it. but you are probably right and they will not redesign it. but they should do it.

hm I can only think of diablo 3. definately much more interesting idea of morph than the ones we have currently in the game. dome that would serve as pillar with risk attached to it.
this thread came to be because I want some interesting, funny abilities that will create new great gameplay opportunities. there is no need for it to be necessesarily negate magic morph but: a) it fits b) I wanted to add to currently existing abilities to avoid 'new ability idea'

I'd rather just have them raise the target cap.

Or else add back the damage like it had in Beta.

it sounds good, second option that is.
