MOP: Putting the "heroic" into heroic leap.

[shokter]

Pretty great idea. I like Heroic Leap in its current state, and rarely experience problems with it, but this is one surefire way to improve it. Maybe even make the 'carrying' of a friendly or enemy target be a choice in a glyph if being able to transport either is deemed too OP. It's different enough from DG/LG in that the warrior would need to get to them first and not apply the transportation affect from range. Very, very good idea (and I think 99% of player made ability ideas/tweaks I see on MMOchamp are stupid or ridiculously OP).

I also approve this idea. I do like my warrior, but I feel he's lacking. Playing a barbarian in D3, it does seem like there is more Blizzard can do with certain spells. Glyphs/new talents is nice, but really customizing what a skill does is great. I'd love a Heroic Leap talent that lets you bring your target with you... or instead give you a buff when using... or instead, i don't know, give you more distance or something.

Heroic Leap is not only an offensive tool, and can be used defensively.
With your change, most of the times you will escape AND bring your future killer with you.
No, thanks.

End paragraph original post. I said make it a glyph or a level 75 talent, so that if you don't like it, you don't get it. Also can untarget player, or just not face them. Maybe when your playing defensive instead of just saving your own butt, you can grab your pocket healer on the way out. Not a move for duels or soloing, its for group situations.

As for it being annoying aka another life grip, from another post, well people flamed about life grip before it came out and it wasn't exploited like others thought it would be. But still you could add another restriction to heroic leap. Like....for "blah blah" seconds after charge/intervene... puts a buff on friendly player saying "able to heroic leap", click it off or macro it off.

As for diablo, I think it would be a slippery slope if blizzard started implementing those moves into wow. Rogues and hunters will want demon hunter moves, mages will want wizards moves and so on.... In Diablo your supposed to be this one man army. What I was trying to think up is a utility move. Not something that makes you a god. Something that you bring to the party that helps one another out. Do I want this dk or warrior, what can a warrior do that a dk can't ? That kind of thing.

Hardest part would be to implement the graphics of the move. Would you both just float across? Could blizzard make it an actual hold, how would a gnome look heroic leaping a tauren?

If you are skilled you are not bringing your future killer with you, instead you are bringing your future victim. But hey, I'm a glass half-full kind of guy. That or I actually have confidence.
Yes, please.

Oh you're so right, it's everytime a matter of skill! Ever heard of smokebombs? Keep staying in those, boss, you'll be fine. oh please.

Clear your target before you leap.

Ye, I forgot that it was about your target, not just the nearest enemy.
At that point, self-targeting could be more safe than clearing it.

Ok, I'm up for it :P

Plan before using it. Make sure smoke bomb is not a problem by understanding your strategy, problem? Oh please, being good at something does have to do with skill. Don't be so butthurt.

Heroic leap PvP nerf in the new build. They should really stop tweaking abilities for PvP when PvP gear or max level isn't even available yet.

Where does it say heroic leap gets nerfed? all i saw was the buff to the glyph, increasing dmg by 100%.

Ofcourse being good does have to do with skills.

But saying "hey, i would never heroic leap to avoid death, i'm too pro" isn't.

Using Heroic Leap as a defensive tool it's btw something that kinda be needed sometimes, and if you don't you're nerfing yourself, but that's fine for me.
