    Default Warmage Project {Sorcerer tree}

    Greetings DDO Players,

    I am a member of the Player's Council 2014, acting completely independently from the Developers in this thread which a continuation of the a thread found inside the Player's Council forums.

    Up front I want to make several things clear, I have no idea when a new "third" Sorcerer tree will be made if ever. New Sorcerer trees are not on the current NDA list.

    This tree is result my brainstorming for new ideas for a possible new class for 2015 onward. The Warmage tree was a suggestion for possible new classes, yet as I looked it over, I found it would fit much better into a Sorcerer tree which is needed than its own class.

    A new class needs have its own distinctive traits, and Warmage is simply a more powerful arcane that is limited in focus. Hence I chose to convert it to an enhancement tree rather than directly compete with the Wizard and the Sorcerer. The design of this tree is expected to compliment the existing Savant trees and provide cherry picking as well as be a stand alone tree.

    I have received PC feedback and improvements on this already.

    Hopefully we can continue sorting thru and create one or more new sample trees, sticking close if possible to 3rd edition roots.

    As a member of the Player's Council, I am allowed to present my own personal projects and vision for the future of DDO.

    When we are done here, there will be a permanent placement of our theories and ideas into the Player's Council Forums, and I will encourage and press the Developer to work towards adding a "third" Sorcerer tree. Even if these don't not take place until after I leave the Player's Council at the end of the year, those ideas will still remain behind to inspire the Developers.

    Thank you for your help and feedback, it is appreciated and a link to this thread will be included in that final report to the developers.

    Default Current tree ~ round 15

    Round 15 Draconic Warmage tree for Sorcerers
    {ap cost 6+15+14+12+13+13 = 73 total for tree}

    Fluff:

    In the beginning there were Sorcerers. Then eventually two ancient schools of thought developed. Those who viewed Sorcery as an art and an expression of elemental power, and those who viewed Sorcery as a tool for war. Those who viewed Sorcery as an art gather centers of knowledge near their elemental climates. Those who viewed Sorcery as a tool where employed as mercenaries for the Houses. In time these two schools began facing each other in duals of magic as politics and wars pushed them out of the towers of knowledge unto the battlefields. The feud grew and in time, the Savants distanced themselves from the Warmage not allowing them to study at their centers of knowledge anymore. So the Warmage turned to the Dragons as their foundation of knowledge and admiration.

Those who viewed Sorcery as an art gather centers of knowledge near their elemental climates. Those who viewed Sorcery as a tool where employed as mercenaries for the Houses. In time these two schools began facing each other in duals of magic as politics and wars pushed them out of the towers of knowledge unto the battlefields. The feud grew and in time, the Savants distanced themselves from the Warmage not allowing them to study at their centers of knowledge anymore...

    Warmage Round 7


    A literal interpretation and conversion of the Warmage class to DDO:


    The Warmage Class

    A militant spellcaster whose training focuses on battlefield magic.


    Hit die d6

    Skill points 2 + Int

    Class Features

    Weapon and Armor Proficiency: Warmages are proficient with all simple weapons, light armor, and light shields. There is no ASF associated with these.


    At 8th level, a warmage gains proficiency with medium armor (see Armored Mage, below). There is no ASF associated with these.

    Spell Casting ~ Charisma based ; Spells learned are the same as a Sorcerer.

    Warmage Edge (Ex): A warmage is specialized in dealing damage with his spells. Whenever a warmage casts a spell that deals hit point damage, he adds his Intelligence bonus (if any) to the amount of damage dealt. For instance, if a 1st-level warmage with 17 Intelligence casts magic missile, he deals
    1d4+1 points of damage normally, plus an extra 3 points of damage due to his Intelligence bonus. The bonus from the warmage edge special ability applies only to spells that he casts as a warmage, not to those he might have by virtue of levels in another class.

    A single spell can never gain this extra damage more than once per casting. For instance, a fireball deals the extra damage to all creatures in the area it affects. However, if a 3rd-level warmage casts magic missile and produces two missiles, only one of them (of the warmage's choice) gains the extra damage, even if both missiles are directed at the same target. If a spell deals damage for more than 1 round, it deals this extra damage in each round.

    Magic Items used by a warmage do not gain any benefit from warmage edge.

    Sudden Empower: At 7th level, a warmage gains Sudden Empower as an Action Boost. The Sudden Metamagic Action Boosts reduced the sp cost of that particular metamagic to zero.

    Sudden Enlarge: At 10th level, a warmage gains Sudden Enlarge as an Action Boost. The Sudden Metamagic Action Boosts reduced the sp cost of that particular metamagic to zero.

    Sudden Maximize: At 20th level, a warmage gains Sudden Maximize as an Action Boost. The Sudden Metamagic Action Boosts reduced the sp cost of that particular metamagic to zero.

    Warmage round 6

    It looks like Warmage as either a Sorcerer or a Wizard tree would prove too competitive with the Savant and Archmage trees respectively. They would either be less powerful than them and hence be wasted coding or they would be more powerful and would outdate existing coding thereby either way promoting wasteful coding time by the Devs.


    To convert Warmage into own class will be the discussion of round 7, however the Warlock class may be preferable as a new class over the Warmage, although the Warmage could eaiser to convert.

    The same rule could very well apply to classes as well as trees, that classes that are too similar and competitive with others will result in wasted coding time as they might underperform compared to or obsolete existing classes.


    However, there may be useful ideas to steal scattered about this thread for other projects.

    Very nice work! The thing that jumps out at me is that you would be giving a sorc arguably the best divine spell (blade barrier) and the best druid spell (earthquake).

    Obviously what a sorc is going to do is take 5 tiers of this tree and 4 tiers for their main element and this basically amps up their crits for their main element while giving them great crits for force as well. Blade Barrier and Earthquake would almost always be selected because they are just so good. Would the evocation crits apply to epic destiny SLAs?

    I love the concept, but this seems like a huge power boost for sorcs which already perform well in EE content.

    The T1 HP enhancement is twice as strong as EK. Granted, that's about the only thing in EK other than W&S mastery worth taking. Assuming that it is ever fixed. I would probably drop it for something else. Maybe a working W&S Mastery, and just dump EK in the trash entirely (IMO, the melee mage archetype needs it's own basic class, not a PrE in Wiz/Sorc).

    Maybe add a Spell Power action boost clicky.

    A tree that didn't suck utterly and gives USP is what Sorc needs. I would probably ditch Savant entirely, or just hit Air for Wind Dance. Personally, I'd also push for a DC-based option as well. Maybe just a retool of Archmage.

    Giving Sorcerers access to some of the best non-arcane spells is probably too powerful. I'd at least restrict it to level 6 and below, and probably just give them additional arcane slots, not Druid or Divine spells as options. There's not as many 7-9 spells anyway, but 6 and 4 are very tight levels. Simply giving them the ability to add additional L4, 5 and 6 Arcane spells would be powerful enough.

    The Evo/Conj crit boosts could probably just be 1 enhancement, as a multi-select option. TBH, I think most of us would just take Evo boosts since there's more Evo spells in common use. You could give additional SP as a multi-select option, either 3 USP or more for specific types, to replace the other enhancement.

    I don't see any T5's I would take over Wind Dance, Heat Death, Earthgrab, or Prison, SLA, or Awaken Weakness. Edge makes little sense, and the minor boost isn't worth the lost mobility. There are not enough stave clickies in the game to bother boosting them, and what few there are are generally Heroic level. Evo focus is available in Savants and again, 99.9% of what is going to be taken. Basically, the only thing I see is Ready For Action's boost to the earlier core abilities.
    Anyone who disagrees is a Terrorist...

    Removed the Heal/Blade Barrier granted spells from round 6 and replaced them with Discentegrate and Polar Ray.
    Thereby offering more spell slots since all the spells picked as quality ones that most sorcerers would choose, but avoiding the power creep of divine spells. The only divine spells introduced here are nimbus of light and searing light as combat SLAs.


    Hmm...dropping from 1 USP per point to 0.5 USP per point may have done the trick.

    The SLA metamagic does free up feat slots without overpowering things, because you cannot get any higher power by retaking the metamagics whereas if they offered plain spell power you could.

    The SLA overload totals 7 offensive SLAs and 1 defensive SLA compared to Druid offering 6 offensive SLAs and 1 healing SLA.


    Maybe, just maybe we got something here?!?

    Spam that heightened maximized empowered quickened enlarges Ice Lance!

    (No seriously I rather like the tree, and it synergizes with Savants without overshadowing them I think)

    They're basically the same enhancement. They're both in tier 5 so a player will feel like spending APs on the same enhancement twice (for twice the bonus of course).

    I suggest to change Battlefield Instinct to something else for two reasons:
    - it's less powerful than warmage edge
    - it could be hard to code

    I spent some time thinking about how to replace Battlefield Instinct, but with no results

    You have a point there.

    I guess we could, make Warmage Edge read Charisma Score instead of Charisma Modifier?
    That would mollify those not liking the 0.5 usp per point spent.
    Then we could add another SLA there in tier 5.
    Then we could have core 20 grant blade barrier.

    Yes.
    (Yes.)
    Oh very much yes.
    Totes awesome.

    I would like to point out that a warmage with that tree is getting 5 free feats as long as they stick to SLA (which isn't going to be hard) for their offensive spells. So goodbye feat starvation. The SP in tree is a lot higher than it looks because of that.

    Giving the tree one last once-over I realized it's got magic missile spells. Are there more multi-selector potential spells that could go in those places? Perhaps duplicates for the other multiselectors in those tiers? So you can have more than one elemental SLA set.

    a) Because multiselectors rock.
    b) Because 41 WM, XX Savant, XX Savant will be a thing.
    c) Because SLAs have longer CD than sorc casting by default (or should).
    d) Because when I put together a potential EK tree it involved magic missile mastery (and you may pitch that rework + warmage tree).
    e) All of the above.

    Not to be too egocentric or whatever.

    Round 9 is up!


    Changes:

    Warmage edge is now Charisma Score.
    There is no longer a choice to use charisma for spellcraft.

    The SLAs have been reshuffled to give more choices and variety as well as more tier 5 power.

    Cores 12, 18, and capstone have changed
    12 ~ Disintegrate as a level 6 known spell
    18 ~ Sunbeam as a level 7 known spell
    20 ~ Blade Barrier as a level 8 known spell



    Be back next week, thanks very much for all the feedback, you folks are great!

    OK - the more and more that I look at this thread, do the math, and figure the different permutations of this as a 20 Sorcerer, the more I realize that this simply will NOT work as a Sorcerer Tree - taking this tree and dipping into any Savant will simply make this far too powerful. The ONLY way to make this work is to lock out ALL savant trees when the first core enhancement is taken.

    On the other hand, lets look at making this a class. I don't think Silverleafeon's translation into a class quite works - too much similarity with Sorcerer. I will work on translating this to a Class (with multiple trees) over the weekend

    I am of the opinion that it looking too powerful has more to do with the fact that focused builds kinda suck, and that generally speaking other trees aren't powerful enough. I would however like to know what about the tree makes you feel that it is too powerful for savants.

    I really like the style of divine disciple, so trying to work in that direction...

    I feel like this is really missing depth and theme, so what if warmage rerolled and see what happens?

    Default Round 15 is up.

    Drawing from the 5th edition core rules, I see Sorcerer getting bonus metamagics and being tied deeply with dragons.
    So....


    Changes shown below.


    Round 15 Draconic Warmage tree for Sorcerers
    {ap cost 6+15+14+12+13+13 = 73 total for tree}

    Fluff:

    In the beginning there were Sorcerers. Then eventually two ancient schools of thought developed. Those who viewed Sorcery as an art and an expression of elemental power, and those who viewed Sorcery as a tool for war. Those who viewed Sorcery as an art gather centers of knowledge near their elemental climates. Those who viewed Sorcery as a tool where employed as mercenaries for the Houses. In time these two schools began facing each other in duals of magic as politics and wars pushed them out of the towers of knowledge unto the battlefields. The feud grew and in time, the Savants distanced themselves from the Warmage not allowing them to study at their centers of knowledge anymore. So the Warmage turned to the Dragons as their foundation of knowledge and admiration.
