Title: Stone skin

Replace protective shield with stoneskin.
Make stoneskin something like
res bash 15
no bash
some AC

And there will be 1 more class with a spell different from pro_shield and the spell will be useful.

Err why exactly do you say protective shield is not useful? Or do you say stoneskin is not useful? AC is useful you know, even if a bunch of people believe it isn't...

Err... trans has ironskin so no need to have stoneskin.
Just replace protective shield with stoneskin as i described

Do not care, even if no res bash. Just combine 2 into 1

yeah, save mana! Same could be said about razospine - make it do something useful or completely remove it.

- agree about razorspine...perhaps make stoneskin castable after ironskin shatters..and it just replaces 4 or 2 more hits..without any of old stoneskin ac etc.  then it is in cooldown period as normal.

Ironskin is one of the strongest protective spells transmuters get, another 4 hits is a crazy idea. This game isn't all about being a hero or higher level, stoneskin is there for lower levels as it should be, its not useless by any means.

- this is perhaps true...maybe must have ironskin cast first then...ironskin cast on top of it...absorbs the rock and forms iron.  Give one extra block for the inconvience  :)

My idea was to replace pro shield with stoneskin spell.
Let the stoneskin spell protect from bashes and give some AC. No hits protection and even no resistances.  I see no overpower in such combination.

No but you would lose a good spell for low ranks... Thing is if your one of those people that breezes past those low ranks and finds the spell useless, you can just not practice it...
