This is my suggestion to make Ursan more balanced. This change makes grouping with more Ursans less effective and also makes it so that the player is not rewarded so much for grinding.


Ursan Itself[edit]

Elite Skill. For 140...156...160 seconds, you take on the aspect of the bear. Your armor is set to 80...88...90 and your health is set to 450...490...500. Bear attacks replace your skills. When this skill ends, you lose all energy and your attributes are set to 0 for 10 seconds.

This change makes it so that the user has to be more cautious than before. It also means that there will be more downtime and that every profession can use the skill to its full potential. Another change is that it can no longer by copied via Arcane Mimicry. Note: the skill begins recharging after it ends.




Ursan Strike[edit]

Skill. Target foe is affected by Ursan Strike. For 4 seconds, this skill does nothing. When this skill ends, target foe takes 120...144...150 damage.

This change makes it so that multiple Ursans cannot instant kill a target, meaning enemies will be around longer. It also has the damage in one packet, meaning the damage can be more easily reduced.





Ursan Rage[edit]

Hex Spell. All adjacent foes are affected by Ursan Rage for 5 seconds. When this hex ends, they are knocked down (maximum 2 seconds) and take 75...95...100 physical damage.

This is another change to make lots of Ursans grouping together less effective. It also does not favor the warrior profession any more.





Ursan Roar[edit]

Skill. For 8...13...14 seconds, target foe is Weakened and you deal +12...21...23 damage per attack. If that foe was using a skill, that foe's attributes are reduced by an additional 3 levels while weakened.

Weakness is one of the most powerful conditions in PvE. A team of Ursans could easily keep the entire group of enemies weakened whilst buffing the team with extra damage. This change makes it so that only one target is affected but with a larger duration and more powerful effect. It is also is slightly affected by player skill.




Ursan Force[edit]

Skill. For 4...6...6 seconds, you move 5...9...10% faster and adjacent enemies move 20...24...25% slower. While under the effects of Ursan Force, you can break wooden barricades.

This skill allowed Ursans to move around too quickly, letting them steamroll everything without the concern of Ursan ending. This change further increases the downtime Ursans will have while minimally affecting its performance in battle.
