Please give the Earth line an additional type of offensive spell (GTAoE or PbAoE or some type of power tap spell) to make earth more attractive to players.


A Theurgist without PBT is like a poor man's Wizard. Make the earth line more attractive so that Albion can get some PBT's.

"1- Automatic Pet Death Power Recycle -= when pet dies, a % of the mana comes back to the caster


OR


2- Put the pets on a Concentration System. The pets die, conc goes back up, wham, back in business."


Wow, I actually really like those ideas. Especially the concentration-based one, but the power-recycling one is probably more balanced.

"I think that Theurgs abilities all look good on paper."


No...Wardens and Runemasters look good on paper. (and most would argue that they look good in game too) Earth Theurgist spec HAS ALWAYS looked like crap on a stick, and plays like it too. Anyone who argues otherwise has a) never played the game, or b) blind as a bat.


Frankly, this nerf surprized me, as the uber-crap treatment of Theurgists left me expecting a fix...not another nerf.

Post-patch, a theurgist with PBT is like a poor man's wizard...but with less mana.


And a Theurgist with 6-second PBT is like a wizard's inept apprentice wearing a blindfold and perpetually out of mana.

Dead accurate and sadly true.


"Frankly, this nerf surprized me, as the uber-crap treatment of Theurgists left me expecting a fix...not another nerf."


Me, too, for as bad as theurgists have it I was expecting theurgs to finally get the love that they so badly need (their mez given the same range as everyone else's mez, pet costs lowered, earth spec being finally fixed so it isn't the worst spec line in the game) and instead Mythic nerfs PBT.


What are they thinking? Hey, Mythic! Pay attention! Theurgists need help BAD.

Well, the theurgist "love" was in the Albion patch. Honestly, it helped Air theurgists more than it helped Earth or Ice...which is very, very odd.
