vjek said:I'll call it "Windwalker" and it would be a combination of a movement speed buff and levitation. If I had to pick just one, that would probably be the most useful in a game with lots of water and exploration on foot.
Add superior vision and I/we call it Spirit of Eagle ;)
It's great to hear that SoW is already in the game. I'd like to see SoE as well. There were times where the levitation wasn't useful and we'd have to remove SoE and use SoW instead. For example, underwater exploration doesn't work well when you're stuck floating above the water. Maybe we could get some Spirit of Fish! Faster swimming with underwater breathing. Otherwise, I'll stick with Amulet of the Grey Wastes.
As a typical melee character though, haste was always something I wanted. I was constantly looking at upgrading handwraps or a silk sash and looking for a good enchanter for a speed boost to my swing. Taking down mobs as quickly as possible reduces their time to do much damage. Less damage means fewer heals. Fewer heals means more mana for the cleric. More mana for the cleric means more pulls. More pulls means more exp for all!

I would like to see a funny buff in game. Which you can use to change your appearance or the appearance of other players.
A buff which let the character randomly look like a different race. E. g. the goblin player will look like an elf or a human.
This would be funny and maybe even a little trick for PvP?
cannabilize....
...that is all.

Are we hijacking this thread to talk about buffs in general? If so, I'm totally okay with this and will be happy to contribute.
I don't have actual examples, but I'd love to see:
I'm all for that "Eagle Eye" idea, thats pretty awesome, or a sort of "Named Mob" tracking, like a bounty that you could pick up in the town, that would give you a general idea(but never a "HES HERE!!!") type thing where it say, lead you to a particular area, or zone, abd you'd have to flush him out or find him from there.
I forgot the best buff ever:
Most EQ spell buffs have already been mentioned, so wanted to create my own:
Cleric / Paladin - Mass of Purity single Greater Mass of Purity Group
Spell - Transforms a player(s) into a pure mass of illumination, allowing for 30% increase in movement speed, 30% light radius enhancement, 30% aggro reduction radius...
*aggro causes spell to wear off
*originally 15 minute duration but can be improved to 30 minutes with AA buff enhancements

Can o' Whoop Ass
How could I forget this? BRING BACK DRUNK KELETHIN RACES. Can o' Whoop Ass as the reward.
if i could get only one spell into pantheon it would have to be
Spiritual light http://everquest.allakhazam.com/db/spell.html?spell=2176
Personally I hated run speed with levitation attached...just give me one or the other and let them stack. Reason is it was horrible for me to do any fighting while levitating, and if you click off the levi you lost run speed as well. Always made me happy yet ticked off when a druid would do a drive by buffing of SoE...if the buff would show up as 2 diff icons that you can click off if needed I would be much happier.
Now, one buff I would like to see as a summoner is to have mass group fire shield buff (or the equivalent)...group buffs were so nice! And as a summoner with a bazillion spells to cast, any time saving ones were welcome.
Actually, thinking about it...perhaps the pets themselves could proc a group buff. So, maybe fire pets = fire dmg shield, water pets = ice dmg shield, earth pets= crystalline dmg shield, air pets= lightning dmg shield.
I seem to remember my mage in EQ2 could have her fire pet proc a group dmg shield...it was automatically done, and pet would keep track of timers and recast. So that would be amazingly nice to have :)

The EQ1 shaman spell line Focus of Spirit. Increases targets maximum HP, strength and dexterity.
But, for fun and giggles, targetable True North so when someone asks you where some place is and you say "go east until you see it" and they ask "well which way is east" you then cast True North and say "well that direction is north so figure it out from there".
