Got a few, thread is long so most have probably already been said.
Last Stand After taking a lethal hit, your HP is instead set at 1 and you become invulnerable for a few seconds. Health must be restored fully before Last Stand can activate again. Horde Decreases damage done by 25%. Increases damage done by 25% for each party member, up to a maximum of x%. Ashen Skin Causes burning to heal you. Cannot resist cold. Lightningrod Shock increases damage done. Cannot resist fire. Ice Heart Chill grants damage protection. Immune to freeze. Cannot resist lightning. Wide Sweeps Decreases damage done by x%. Attack hits up to three targets in front of you. Energy Rush When your Energy Shield is depleted, your Mana will be restored by an amount equal to your maximum Energy Shield. Energy Surge When your Energy Shield is depleted, all enemies around you will be hit for x-y lightning damage. Overwhelming Converts all damage done by you into physical damage. Brute Force Ability damage is increased by x%. Can't use Support Gems. Jinxed Doubles the critical hit chance of you and your enemies. Assault All attacks done by you and to you will land with 100% accuracy. Charge Burner Ignores the effects of all charges. Charge Distortion Reverses the effects of all charges. Dirty Fighter Reduces damage done by x%. Increases damage done by y% and critical hit chance by 100% when attacking stunned targets. Discord Gives your attacks a -1x - 3x damage modifier (your attacks may heal the enemy.) Veil of Steel Increases armor by 300%. Can't resist elemental or chaos damage. Unburdened Cannot wear body armor. Allows you to wear x additional ring(s) and y additional amulet(s). Divine Intervention Upon taking a lethal hit, has x% of restoring your Health and Energy Shield to their maximum, and increasing your movement speed by y% and damage by z%. Mana Shield Disables Energy Shield. Damage against you is depleted from your mana pool. When your mana is depleted, damage will be drawn from your health instead. |

Bloodthirsty:
40% slower recovery from health flasks [40% slower recovery from mana flasks] 40% less life regeneration [40% less mana regeneration] 50% faster health regeneration from leech effects [50% faster mana regeneration from leech effects] Numbers can be tweaked, modifiers in braces are optional. Overall this may be hard to balance due to instantaneous flask mods. In that case, another option would be to reduce the amount of health gained from flasks — which probably makes a lot more sense anyway. "Quality over quantity dude. MANY of those are absolutely TERRIBLE. This actually applies to many people here, not just him. Think of some good passives people! Don't just spit them out like you getting paid for a job where there's no quality control. Fresh cakes for all occasions.

" This is an important part of the brainstorming process to understand. While there needs to be a little more quality control because of the thread setup and because it is the internet, it is inherently valuable to have a large number of ideas that are failures such that the fragments of those ideas that are successful can be built upon one-another. Even if any specific idea was poor, the idea that you have stat-scaling passives can be expanded upon. Several examples were given to give a framework to work upon. Same with weighted elemental resistances. Same with Auras. Same with packaged weapon/armor kit keystones. Even if any specific idea is poor, the existence of those ideas to further understanding of what is possible cannot be denied. Admittedly, it is almost worth it to have a 'good' thread, where people quote specific keystone proposals from other people that they liked, but that is besides this point. Blunt Initiative When using a mace, you always stun enemies at 100% health. You never stun them otherwise. Elemental Blows When using a mace, you no longer deal physical damage. All elemental damage you deal is increased 50%. Ornamental Weapon You no longer deal Weapon damage when making attacks. Attack skills have +100% Attack speed, duration, and -50% mana cost. Indirect Spellcraft Your spells no longer deal their base damage. Spells gain a +100% chance of ignite, shock, and freeze effects. Blood to Power Whenever you would recover health by flask or health-leach you instead recover mana. Gain 1% health regen per second. Fell-Blade Your attacks deal 200% damage if it would kill the enemy, otherwise they deal 50% damage. Burst-Casting Any time you would first cast a spell, you are immobilized for 3 seconds. At the end of this 3 seconds, all spells cast within the duration are finished simultaneously. +50% armor and evasion during this period. |

Double edged shield
Your blocks don't prevent any damage but reflect it to the attacker. Best defense is offense xD Cautious technique -25% attack speed, always hit. An alternative to resolute technique, I would put it somewhere in the templar area. Adrenaline Evading provides 1 frenzy charge, frenzy charge duration reduced by 75%. An alternative to blood rage for melee rangers and something to do with evasion. Strategist -50% life -50% es +50% minion life You go fight while I hide ! xD Build of the week #2 : http://tinyurl.com/ce75gf4 Last edited by zriL#4590 on Feb 16, 2012, 11:41:57 AM
