I played a while as a mage now and i begin to annoy myself about the enormous skill misses. Since mages depend on there skills, shouldnt there be a skill or lix to decrease the skill missses? well let me know what you think about this

Firestorm and ice blast should really be non-miss, at least for the target you cast it on.

Casting these skills is like throwing bombs, and the explosion radius is 6 meters for firestorm and 8 meters for ice blast. A 6-8 meter radius blast is huge; it should be impossible to miss your target.

...Or deflected. Even if you are a 35 ft tall warlock or dragon, there is no way you can deflect 5 "grenades" coming at you at once.

Yes, common sense dictates that the larger your target, the easier it should be to hit it.

But in CH, the larger your target, the higher its defense and skill evasions are. :)

nice thoughts swan about the non-misses. But i was more thinking about a skill to cast on urself. like steady aim does to rangers. A similar skill as steady aim would be worth it for mage

Yeah rogues get it instead-- expose weakness.
Not too many I know willing to sacrifice dps for it.

ik, that's why it is a good skill in my opinion. It doesn't make the mage class op and it will solve alot of complains from people
