EQ by - anyone apart from mage/cleric/druid/zerk
What it does:
Has a [your dex] % chance of reflecting any spell cast at you back on the caster. So if i was on Chiquita:
You raise your hand out creating a devastating blast, injuring Beatrix for 75 points of damage.
You raise your hand out creating a devastating blast, injuring Beatrix for 74 points of damage.
You raise your hand out creating a devastating blast, but Beatrix's Mirror Shield reflected it back on you for 76 points of damage.
You raise your hand out creating a devastating blast, injuring Beatrix for 75 points of damage.
You raise your hand out creating a devastating blast, but Beatrix's Mirror Shield reflected it back on you for 76 points of damage.
Figures would probably need tweaking.
Supported.

pallys can beat mages/druids 1v1 already if pallys had this it would just make them overpowered

As a note- by <3 Doggy I also meant that I think this is ridiculous.
Yes but you don't really play properly.
I only posted this because I fought a fighter in the final of 1-alt PT with Chiquita. Honestly, it was embarrassing. I drank like 1 pot and used a couple of crystals and then it was over. I'd rather that there was a chance of things being fair. This seems to be a good, balanced way of doing it.
And yeah, I guess pallys don't really need it.

I think I've played just fine for plenty long.
Fighters are just not the class to use in a 1v1 against a mage or druid because they have too much armor. Just because they are out-classed in that case they should be given some magical ability to counter spells?
I think not.
I don't want to have it turn around and be like- O, zerks have no armor so they should have melee ability to counter-attack people. That is basically what this is, but for a different class, and it is ridiculous in my opinion.

OK so have it your way. It just means that anyone who actually wants to stand a realistic chance of winning 1-alt PT has to enter on a mage/zerker/druid. Which is a sorry state of affairs.
And anyway. It's not an ability, it's an item - using said item causes you to lose base AC, making you more vulnerable to rangers/fighters etc, but giving you that bonus against mages/druids.

remove stoneform/thorn shield so druid only can cast gaea's blessing?
that would solve the problem.

Fighters and rangers are weak against mages, druids, clerics, and pallys.
Mages and druids are well off on their own, but can randomly be killed by beserkers.
Beserkers are poor to use against fighters...
So really to win, you just have to hope that the class you are weak against loses or doesn't fight you.

Or maybe the winner would be determained by who is the more skilled dueler or who has the better equipped character.....like...it...should..be.
I'll find a link to my post where I suggested alternatives for balancing classes.
EDIT: Forget it, no point even contemplating ideas like these, as no one cares enough to actually implement them!
