So I'd like to make a map where there arent Warrios, Priests, Mages or so on. Something special.

Well I've already made out Berserker, that works kinda like warrior, but is better on dealing damage than tanking. Also I was thinking about Witch Doctor that could have worked as a healer and casting negative buffs/curses on enemies, but I were very unsure about it. So yeah, say some difference RPG classes.

Here is 3 spell ideas for the Soul Binder that X.e.r.e.X came with =)

Soul Binder

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

Drain Soul:

Its like Drain Life, it drains X hitpoints every second and tranfers it to the caster, but make a Intenger Variables that increases every second while draining in triggers by X. The Intenger value is "Soul Power" that increases next spells damage by X.


Soul Blast:

Based on any instant damage spell, but deals 2 x Intilligence + Soul Power damage. Pretty simple =) So the Drain Soul increases the damage on this spell.

Soul Terror:

Terrorizes the target enemy units Soul, dealing "Soul Power" per second over X seconds + 0.5 intilligence, when the effect is gone, the target unit will be stunned for X seconds and the "Soul Power" will increase by X.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

Note:
I like spells that supports other spells VERY much =D Just like:
Drunken Haze + Fire Breath = Slow + DOT = IMBA
Drain Soul + Soul Terror/Soul Blast = More DMG = PWNAGE

=D Hope this helped =)

Unleash Rage

OOH OOH OOH ME GOTS IDEAS

How about an RPG where you... are... EVIL! And instead of helping rid the world of some crazy ass motherfucking demon infestation that wants to suck out your soul through your urethra (whatever the fuck that is, I think it's the piss tube), you have to help a demon overlord conquer a world full of humans and turn it into your own personal paradise in a quest for ultimate greed :mwahaha:
