Well if you make that thread about the races I can make better suggestions on skills.
Okay, no problem. I said I'd do that on another thread, but I forgot. I also have a list of potential skill effects, which I'll include here.

I make these threads as much for my benefit as for others

Skills should be organised into categories, some of which are shared, one of which is race-specific. Some skills should be completely hidden until unlocked via a quest, etc.
Skills are limited by skill points -- you need skill points to learn the skills, but there are only a finite number of skill points to acquire. Alternatively, it could be possible to get skill points my spending points, or working really, really hard.
A complete skill reset should be possible via an Upgrade Centre option.
Skill ideas and notes (unorganised):
- Theft skill, to increase/enable the chance of stealing money from a user’s bank.
- Evade skill, to enable repeat attacks, decrease attack timeframe, etc.
- Enable repeat attacks against NPCs; reduce personal respawn time.
- Skill to block incoming negative skill casts.
- Skill to reduce/disable target receiving guild help during attacks.
- Skill to increase the drop chance of items on treasure lists (large cooldown).
- Add/remove from the base attributes (many combinations are possible).
- Skill to reduce/disable losing credits during incoming attacks? (akin to Honour skill).
- Skill to reduce the cooldown time of other skills?
- Skill to block the target from casting skills on themselves (and others)?
- Skill to block the target from joining any raids.
- Skill to block the target from collecting bounties.
- Skill to unequip all/some of the target’s equipped items.
- Skill to stop a player changing their equipped items.
- Skill to lower attack range (very long cooldown).
- Skill to block the target from attacking.
- Skill to protect the target from attacks by players over 20 levels above them?
- Skill to enable access to obstructed areas of maps (invulnerability to fire, etc.)

Thinking about a possible guild skill that increases the time for boss raids to say maybe 8-12 hours. Not sure on any other specific details ( nearly 5 am at the moment ), but that's the basic idea.
Interesting.
Guild skills are a grey area for me atm. I did have one skill idea noted down which reduced the turn cost of forming a raid, so I guess your idea is just as valid as that one is.
It would be cool if guilds could get their own skill-like feature that was bound to the guild, but that's probably a task for another day. For now though, it would be cool if players were head-hunted because they were able to create longer, cheaper raids for their guild (and take that privilege with them when they go).

[14:27] <@Sdiddy73> Ahhhh
the medic skill - when you get down to a certain percentage in health
there is a % chance of getting back half your health in battle
[14:33] <@Sdiddy73> I cant think of a name for it and quite frankly dont know if it has been brought up before but a skill that gives you a chance of hitting a player or npc 2 times in a row once per battle

Or a pa**ive skill that gives a % chance to steal a % of the damage you do to their hp and heal, like Bloodlust. (A vampire skill basically.) Though this skill could also be casted on you of course.
I think it's more reliable over a longer term, and it has a chance to make a roll to get hp back, but they could block and you would get no HP.
