Current one, unchanged.

+4 AS and +5 DMG when moving 4 spaces or more.

+2 AS and +3 DMG on Player Phase, with additional +2 AS and +2 DMG when moving 4 spaces or more.

+1 AS and +1.5 DMG for each space moved up to 4 spaces.

Current one but AS bonus is converted to DR from the end of the Player Phase until the next one.

I don't know but I want to see the results.

...Actually. That gives me an idea. I've talked a bit about abilities that help only one character, but it might be nice to have characters that directly help out their allies rather than just gib their enemies.

The entire Performer Tree, The priest tree, any magic promote with a staff, Commanders, and Nomad Healers all do that.

[birdy51]

Yes, yes, I know. But what about applying that concept to other areas as well?

For instance, take the Fighter and Forest Walk for instance. What if his ability also made it so that anyone who followed in his footsteps didn't have to take the MOV penalty? Essentially, what he's doing is clearing a path and allowing his allies to get the front line just as fast as he is.

[Solymr]

I think that's too complicated. GMs dun like to change maps too much.
There are more ally helping abilities: Sentinel gives 5 DEF to adjacent people, etc

[Solymr]

Let's recap the ideas since the yes has a good lead:
So far the only two ideas was Overwatch/Called Shot and the bonus hit when attacking the same guy at range.
Any more ideas?

[birdy51]

I think those two ideas are good. Let's explore them a bit more and poll it up.

Spoiler: On the Laguz Front (click to show/hide)

On the Laguz Front, I have began working with the Bird Tribe and what they needed to have Ability wise. I've created little "Satori Trees" if you will; different evolution paths that change how a character is played. For instance, the Heron can effectively played as either a Bard and a Priest, but will not be able to do both well. Ravens can be played as Roguish Thieves who break luck and steal your stuff or they can go a more of a debuffing route with Rend, which passively gives them ability to harm an enemy character's DEF at random. Hawks currently have the ability to be hot-blooded maniacs who are willing to put pressure on the enemy, even when they aren't transformed. Then they can transform faster than usual. They also have access to Rend, but are liable to use it less often than the Ravens.

Why do people want a new special for Archers but not Fighters? :x
Changing poll.

[Blade Master Model 42]

I guess the Fighter Special is useful outdoors, whereas archers get ballistae and that's it, and since ballistae very seldom show up, they get easily outshined by the Nomad class.

Why do people want a new special for Archers but not Fighters? :x

Fighters are, if not balanced, then reasonably close to balanced against their peers, the bandits and pirates.
Archers don't have a prayer of keeping up with Nomads.

[SeriousConcentrate]

This, especially since Sniper was changed to no longer have a range advantage special. With a high enough skill, you don't really need Sure Shot; without enough skill, you end up like Efa in FEF2 who rarely ever hits since she was built with having that skill in the end game and is useless until then.

[Blade Master Model 42]

I think the Sniper class skill should be changed to just extra range.

[SeriousConcentrate]

Like it originally was, you mean?

[Blade Master Model 42]

Like it originally was, you mean?

Well, originally they also got bonus hit and damage based on the terrain they were on. But I think extra range is powerful enough alone.

[Solymr]

We'll see when we get to promoted classes, but I'd like at least the Warrior to get a new special >_>

[SeriousConcentrate]

@Blade: Yeah, but that part was worded so poorly I figured it would just be ignored. And the one extra space of range is good enough really.

[Blade Master Model 42]

Warrior, both Wyvern promotes, and at least one I can't think of right now I'm sure.
