Sirens of Aphrodites (Discussion)

The Sirens of Aphrodites use the power of suggestion to control the enemies actions for a short period of time forcing them to attack thier own team mates or Heal/Buff thier enemies team. They also have skills like "Love Drunk" which actually makes the enemy highly intoxicated which can disorent them. The SoA class can summon and control thier own minions called Cupids much like a ranger has a pet but the cupid doesnt not have to be captured. The Cupid fires arrows at the enemy and has varies skills likes the rangers Beast mastery skills. The SoA have the lowest armor and the lowest physical attack of all the classes and are easisly killed so they must stay far back in battle.

Why this is a good idea

Why it may not work out

•  The class sounds boring to play. All you would do is summon a pet and control that, while mind controlling enemies. It sounds like you would just use a few abilities to manipulate enemies, instead of just attacking them and finishing them off. As a support class, MAYBE. But even then, it's iffy. I cannot see this class contributing to gameplay at all. It seems like a weaker necromancer, in some ways.
•  Mind control skills would be useless in PVP.
