Dragon Skill Feedback

Well since the Dragon class has been accepted into being a base class.
I gotta get off my fat spartan ass and finish it's skills.
I have this skill in mind but before I cement the skill I want opinions on it.
I myself think I've balanced it out pretty well despite it's power.

Jikoku Zetsumei Dageki(Instant Death Strike):A very powerful strike using one's weapons and focusing all of it's energy on the tips of it's
weapons. This attack is given a 60/40 chance of instantly killing any monsters that are 2-3 levels above it's own. On bosses this skill changes to a 50/50 chance to instantly kill and against other players it becomes 30/70. The cost for such power is the user uses up all of it's sp and hp. Once the user becomes a Dragoon only the sp is used up along with $50 of the user's hp. The user also becomes unable to restore hp or sp automatically for 2 minutes(Lets say 4 posts) This skill is able to bleed into Dragon Revival.

I'm kind of unsure about instant kills. That's great in an actual game, but when you're roleplaying on a site, I don't think it's a good idea, since the other people you're playing with might feel like they didn't get to do much if one person just instant killed the enemy. At the very least, I don't think bosses should be able to be instant killed.

I like how you balanced it out, though! Not being able to recover SP and HP for a set amount of time is a good setback.

I might end up making it have a preset requirement in order to use.\
Dunno what to make the requirement though.

[Gretelle]

Maybe you can only use it if you've completed a specific quest? That's an idea, at least.

[Roen]

It's an interesting skill.

[Lein-A746]

I might work out whats pretty much a " Rage " gauge.
After so number of posts you can use the skill.
But after that it doubles.
So say for starts you just need two posts to do the skill.
After that it doubles to 4 posts..Then 8.
Pretty much it'd max out at say 12 posts.

Mmm if anything just change the name. Other wise it's fine, I just think with the current name people will assume that it means it will auto-kill. Which, isn't very fair.

especially to us waves ._.;

[Lein-A746]

I will.
But you also think that I balanced it's instant kill abilities fairly?

[Lineaux]

I'm not sure instant kill on bosses or players CAN be made fair. i mean, who cares if you lose half your health, the battle is still OVER, right?

[Lineaux]

Because of the fact that it's a base class, and no OTHER base class has a instant-kill spell, doesn't this overpower the skill in terms of all the other classes?

The move can be dodged.

Ah, well then it does balance out as far as that is concerned. I'm still concerned about this class being more powerful than the other classes.

Don't worry man.
It's my class.
It'll be fair.
I'll have it balanced.

[Lineaux]

:I alright.

Why do you need descriptions for your skills? Why make your skills so complex if it's a base class? All the other classes don't have them. What Beast Master class did was incorporate the Wave Sphere system w/o any added information. Just the name, the level, and SP I guess in the future.

Are we going to add additional information to other class skills as well? This class just seems like an expansion one irregardless.
