Skill Gems - Create one!

Just want to see what kind of ideas people have for skills.

Doing any skill type there is: Red, blue, green and white.

Since there's a white gem, maybe there should be a black skill gem too :P



Ring of fire (blue):

Casts a ring of fire with increased chance to ignite.

Thunderbolt (blue):

Summons a thunderbolt

Wisdom gem (black):

ID's an item
Leaves are falling all around, It's time I was on my way.
Thanks to you, I'm much obliged for such a pleasant stay.
But now it's time for me to go.
The autumn moon lights my way.
For now I smell the rain, and with it pain, and it's headed my way.

Spell Corridor (blue):
Creates an energy tunnel in which projectile spells gain +100% speed.
Disregard witches, aquire currency.
Perhaps a red and green crowd control skill similar to frost wall.


Green would probably be a net of some sort that temporarily immobilizes mobs.

Red could summon some boulders to come up through the ground, but that would maybe be to similar to frost wall.
" ... to let them know the game isn’t going to be very fair from here on out."
- Qarl
self destruct, does damage based on current hp and brings u to 1 hp in an aoe around yourself
ign = ultrahiangle
32STR / 24DEX "Heavy string" Support gem. (Red)

20% slower attack speed
30% increased bow dmg.
+20 Increased knockback on projectiles.

knockback increases by 5 per gem level.
Dmg increases by 2% every 2 levels.
___________

It will allow a person to gain knockback easier then using the skill tree & provides a dmg increase at the cost of spd.

I’m sure this was already considered because so many other games work this way, but what about a type of gem that is not skill or skill augmenting? Maybe even not a gem, but could use the gem slots to modify (and level up like the gems) the item its socketed into?

Would probably have to be pretty rare or high level, the bonus could be damage type added only to a weapon – defense only in armor, run speed only on boots, etc.

Would have to be somewhat low bonuses as not to overpower, but at high levels most people make use of every slot they can get anyhow so they would have to sacrifice something to use them. Seems like one of these would go well in an item with 6 sockets but 5 linked – these would go in the orphan spot.
30 str-20 int gem(with requirement progession 3str-2int)

"Granitic form"

Covers you with thick granite for X second, in the meantime you dont get damaged by anything, and you can't do actions expet drinking flasks.
The form breaks before the time set if it receives too much damage.
After the form, the user is slowed by X% for X seconds
DPS BLAST

DEALS DAMAGE EQUAL TO YOUR DPS TO TARGET ENEMY
Blue: Chain Lightning. Lightning arcs from the caster to the target, and jumps at 30% and 60% reduced strength to two nearby monsters.
Open beta is still BETA.
Frozen Orb would be really great.

It would also be nice to have some auras that have negative effects on enemies instead of buffing allies.
