I know exactly what I'll be doin' about it, Son of Hellscream. I'll be watchin' as ya people slowly become aware of ya ineptitude. I'll laugh as dey grow ta despise ya as I do. And when tha time comes dat ya failure is complete and ya "power" is meaningless, I will be dere to end ya rule, swiftly and silently. Ya will spend ya reign glancin' over ya shoulda and fearin' tha shadows, for when tha time comes and ya blood be slowly drainin' out, ya will know exactly who fired da arrow dat pierced ya black heart.

Check out some of my other Hero Concepts and feel free to let me know your thoughts and opinions.
I appreciate it, Therrion. I have a few too many Concepts rolling at once however and I am trying to focus on finishing one at a time. Dranosh Saurfang is "Done" but I still have balancing to do then I possibly will finish Vol'jin before moving back to Th***arian and Koltira.
Combat Trait: Seems like it should have a longer cooldown, perhaps 4 seconds is my intial feel. I don't know why this is called Shadowhunter except for Vol'Jin being a Shadowhunter, but that has nothing to do with what this trait does (unless you have specific inspiration).
Q: Does insane amounts of damage. 905 at Lv. 20. On a 3 second cooldown. For perspective, a Verdant Sphered double Living Bomb does 840 not taking talents into perspective and has a 10 second cooldown. The cooldown on this needs increased to at least 8 seconds and a damage reduction.
W: This is an odd one. 4 second Hex is obviously ridiculous and needs toned down. A weaker vulnerability is iffy, the only bad part about this spell. The 2 second silence is really good as well, but at least it's balanced out by the 33% chance factor and all that. I'd make the Hex 2 seconds max, that being the best roll (as they are not only silenced but can't basic attack), silence 2 seconds is fine for the medium roll, and damage increase be the low roll.
E: Fine. Doesn't feel big but is certainly bad voodo.
R1: Completely out of place on an Assassin. Don't know the costs or cooldown on this, but putting Tranquility on an assassin is an odd decision. I guess it is one of the best ways to display Lukou in the kit, however.
R2: 1675 damage at Lv. 20 that happens very quickly. For comparison, Precision Strike from Nova does 1000 at this point, and doesn't silence. I imagine this isn't a global, but that's still a huge difference in power. I'd reduce the silence to 1.2s or so, and make the scaling down to around 45 OR make it a rather hard to hit, narrow skill shot. However, of the two options, I'd prefer an easier to confirm, solid damage spell than a hard to confirm nuke.
Final Verdict: Nice depiction of a Shadowhunter. Out of proportion numbers are the only real issue with the concept, which are easy to fix. Overall, nice job.
