I present to you my first long term four game! All of the other RPGs I have made up to this point you can consider those just a test! To see what types of fourm games I like and which ones I abandoned. Now with that research in mind I can create an RPG that will be fun for both me and my players. Now I want this too be a long term RPG. Thats means I will not abandon this RPG but I need players that are really interested and won't get bored of this RPG I know you don't know what its about yet but we are almost there in fact I will explain now!

This RPG is a sequel to one of my favorite RPGs! It will have many! And I mean many Classes it will be free roam and medieval. it will have a stat based battle system but absolutely no luck (At least for the most part). Anyway that raps up the description (If you want more just tell me what you want like storyline or char sheet) now we get into what I need you for!

Having so many classes has a down side I need an in-depth skill tree for all of them! I just need you to suggest skills for them and I will put it into a skill tree. To give you an idea of power and cost the weakest skill could cost 1 mana or energy and have a power of 3 while the strongest could cost 50 mana or energy and deal 50 damage. Format is like this:
[power, mana or energy cost , special effects (below)]

Damage over time effects:

Burn:
Corresponding element: Fire
High damage over time Includes armor
5 tiers

Drown:
Corresponding element: water
low-high damage over time gets stronger as it goes. Ignores armor.
5 tiers

Poison:
Corresponding element: Poison
Mid damage over time ignores armor
5 tiers

Cut: (Suggestions needed)
Corresponding element: Metal
5 tiers

Shock: (Belongs to 2 categories)
Corresponding element: Lightning
Very low damage over time also slows.
5 tiers

Slowing effects:

Shock: (Belongs to 2 categories)
Corresponding element: Lightning
Very low damage over time also slows.
5 tiers

Freeze:
Corresponding element: Ice
Slows (Better slowing than shock)
5 tiers

Other effects:

Heal:
Heals nothing much more to say
Corresponding element: Life and Light
5 tiers

Life drain:
Heals depending on how much damage is dealt
Corresponding element: Death
5 tiers

Fear:
Makes enemies unwilling to fight
Corresponding element: Shadows
5 tiers

Everything above this text you must specify how long the effect happens.

AoE: (T1 effects 2 targets, T2 effects 3, T3 effects 4, T4 effects 5, T5 effects all)
Corresponding element: None
5 tiers

Always open for more suggestions on effects! Please suggest what you think bleed and knockback should do!

I'd suggest changing up ALL the melee classes weapons,among other stuff.

Instead of having class-specific melee weapons,just throw them all into a "Melee weapons"category,though do restrict some weapons form certan classes(I.E:berserker unable to weild lance).Paladins are sometimes depicted weilding swords,other types of clubs,and even axes sometimes.A knight would be very vulnerable if he dropped his lace or fell off his horse if he has no backup weapon.

Next:Change "cut" to "Bleed" status effect.It wold deal dmg over time,ignoring armour,only applying on hits on direct flesh or light armour.The element would be...Normal?Something like that.Make it so that it wears off if you drink a healing potion,are affected by a healing spell,or untill you die.

Last:Shouldn't "Beast tamer' have a "Beast tamer" Tree?It wouldn't make sense to have a hip if you can't use it to order anything around.

Fire should instead, do mid damage but eats armor over time, so it takes more damage from other stuff.
Cut, see danwar.

Knight needs swords.
Berserker needs twin wielded sword.

Beast tamer needs a Beast Connection skill tree, like danwar suggested.

Necromancers should be just one.

I'm guessing priest also works as a healer. If not, add healer.

Rogue, Speed should be renamed agility and remove daggers and put the skills into poison and agility.

Firstly I have added some weapons to knight, berserker and paladin. (don't like the idea of just a melee weapons thing but I added some)

Next i'm using your idea for bleed (I meant to call it bleed I guess I just typed cut on accident) thank you and its element is already metal.

Beast tamer does have a beast taming tree did I not put one? I'l fix that in an update below.

Changed fire.

added weapons.

See what I said with danwar.

Which "necromancers" are you talking about? There is only 1 necromancer.

Priest, druid and paladin have healing magic.

Renamed speed, if I take away the daggers tree they won't be able to use them

This makes no sense.Monks don't use spears/pikes,they use FISTS!Please edit that out.make them weild staves instead.

Also,make the higher teirs of "Freeze" prevent the affected creature to move at ALL.

Additionally,i have a question;Why not have the "Melee weapons"skill tree?

I was sort of styling it of the monk from dungeon defenders which uses spears. I'l add gauntlets so it can use fists. And for freeze that's what I was planning. and for melee weapons I think it would be too complicated to have just melee weapons I would have to do a TON of exceptions for rogue and a good amount for everything else. Any suggestions forknockback?

New stuff: (bolded) (Stuff that replaced something else will be italics and in parentheses will be the old thing"

Oh and forgot to do burn in the last "new stuff"

Burn:

By that, i mean the mancers. Frigid mancer etc. They're basically the same.

Daggers should just be in the other three classes, and add dagger skills.
Like:
Poison stab in poison, Multi-stab in agility, and shadow stab in stealth, etc.

so there should be one class that does all types of magic? I think there should be more than one magic class. Oh I see ok yah i'l do that!

Yes. It's like an elemental that specializes in summoning.

I'd prefer nothing, or either poison or stealth. As long as it could use daggers, it's fine because it doesn't specialize in it.

Well the only 2 hat summon a lot are necromancer and warlock the other ones just have 2 or 3 summoning spells. So combine those?

Add daggers to archer.

No it would add another skill tree that I have to do and no one is suggesting skills ):

To all: Anyone have a suggestion for knock back or a different effect for wind?

How about this for a wind effect?

Spin
chance to make the target dizzy and attack a random target. At higher tiers it changes to attack any ally or self.
