Undaunted Ability Trapping Webs needs a Rework and I....

ElderSmitter

Have the Perfect Solution. Give it Major Breech. I rarely ever see it being used and would be a nice Option. It could Read like this " Hurl Webs to ensnare your foes reducing their movement Speed by 50% and Applying Major Breech to everything within 4 meters and dealing X Amount of Damage. After 10 Seconds the Web explodes dealing an additional X amount of Poison Damage to the enemy and Extending Major Breech by 6 seconds if an Ally does not activate the Synergy."

That'd just make them go from a gimmick to a worse version of razor caltrops due to the decreased radius and the effects you're suggesting basically being the exsact same, minus the damage burst, which isn't really the point of this skill.

how about instead increasing the radius and making it so that targets it "lands" on are immobilized and slapped with a sticky poison dot, with the tangling webs being changed to also snare the enemy, and just like that you made it into a useful tool for tanks to allow them to wrangle mobs.

Caltrops does not offer a unique synergy but either way i would love for them to rework it. I never see it used and it is not really worth using at the moment.

Major Breach is far too common of a debuff to make it worthwhile. Funnily enough, Minor Breach would have more appeal.

Make it aoe pull?

This ability is nothing but a synergy source and most a pre buff source for damage dealers. I think it can stay as is now.

As a web skill they should make it a nasty root plus a debuff and a synergy would be nice. The OP is right tho no one uses it whatsoever.

Trapping Webs is already a powerful ability, it's just largely unusable because of the synergy. If they eased up the restrictions for the synergy to appear and/or let you use the synergy yourself it would be fine.

Aside from some sweeping general changes and unintended bugs, I feels like the Undaunted skill line is always forgotten though. To this day it is the only combat skill line which did not receive an ultimate and this is many years after Fighters' Guild, Mages' Guild, and weapons received their ultimates.

Greetings,

After further review we have decided to move this thread to a category we think is more appropriate for this topic, as it's a skill.

Thank you for your understanding

This skill obviously needs some love. And 4 meters is simply too small for any ability. It needs to be buffed to be at least 6.

After that, the weird range restriction needs to go away on the synergy. It is unusable in basically all content. Make it a standard synergy that activates when you are within its AOE and call it a day.

I wouldn't mind adding another effect but the items listed above need to happen so that the skill has a basic level of utility again.

funny thing is i am using it while i'm waiting for orbs. I will swap it out for orbs as soon as i hit level 5. Would be nice if it got some love. It's not useless, there are just better options. for a toon you are leveling up, why not use it until you get orbs?
