Gul'dan [WIP]

Darkness Incarnate

Gul'dan, a former orcish shaman, abandoned his ways and became the first orc warlock, betraying his people and ultimately making them fall to demonic enslavement. He joined the Nexus seeking powers beyond anyone's control, and perhaps a challenge.

Combat Trait

1
Create Healthstone
Gul'dan channels this ability for 3 seconds, and creates a healthstone. Sucessfuly casting replaces this trait with <Consume Healthstone> until the healthstone is used. Only one healthstone can be usable/created at a time. 

No cost.
2
Consume Healthstone
Activatable after using <Create Healthstone>, Gul'dan's trait can now be reactivated to heal Gul'dan for 200 (+20 per level) health. Can only have one healthstone at a time. When the healthstone is consumed, the trait will revert back to <Create Healthstone>, and will be instantly put on a 35 second cooldown.
No cost.
3
Fel Burning Embers (PASSIVE TRAIT)
A secondary resource spent on Gul'dan's heroic abilities. <Fel Burning Embers> has a cap of 20 embers. Embers are built whenever Gul'dan lands one of his fel fire-based abilities (not including <Rain of Fel Fire>) on an enemy. Embers will decay if Gul'dan hasn't landed an ability for 15 seconds. After this initial 15 seconds, embers will decay at a rate of 1 ember every 2 seconds.

Primary Abilities

1
Fel Incinerate
Gul'dan instantly casts a fel-infused fire bolt traveling in a line, dealing 150 (+10 per level) damage to the first enemy hit. If fel incinerate hits a target with the <Backdraft> debuff applied to them, <Fel Incinerate>'s cooldown is reduced 2 seconds, and 10 (+1.5 per level) mana is refunded. Generates 1 fel burning ember.

Cooldown: 8 seconds
Cost: 70 mana
2
Fear
Gul'dan casts for .75 seconds and fears target enemy for 1 second, causing target enemy to walk slowly in a direction for the duration of the fear. If <Fear> is cast on an enemy with the <Backdraft> debuff, target will be feared for an additional 1 second.

Cooldown: 20 seconds
Cost: 75 mana
3
Fel Conflagrate
Gul'dan instantly inflicts 50 (+15 per level) damage to target enemy. <Fel Conflagrate> burns for an additional 10 (+.5 per level) damage every .5 seconds for 2 seconds (4 ticks) after it is first applied. <Fel Conflagrate> applies <Backdraft> debuff on target enemy, slowing them by 25% for  2 seconds. <Backdraft> debuff is consumed when another ability is cast on top of it, however the slow will carry out it's full 2 second duration. Generates 2 fel burning embers.

Cost: 45 mana

2
Rain of Fel Fire
Gul'dan instantly casts an AoE rain of fel-infused molten lava at target location, dealing 125 (+8 per level) every second to anyone in <Rain of Fel Fire>'s AoE until Gul'dan toggles <Rain of Fel Fire> off, or Gul'dan runs out of resources (Mana or fel burning embers). If an enemy with the <Backdraft> debuff is standing inside <Rain of Fel Fire>'s AoE, the enemy will be slowed for 35%, this slow persists as long as the enemy is within <Rain of Fel Fire>'s AoE, the enemy will also become vulnerable, increasing all damage taken by 50%. Vulnerability also persists as long as the enemy is within <Rain of Fel Fire>'s AoE.

Cooldown: 16 seconds.
Cost: 3 fel burning embers per second and 15 mana per second.

THIS CONCEPT IS A WORK IN PROGRESS

I will be constantly updating this page with balance changes, new ideas, and more as long as it relates to my concept. Feel free to suggest things or give your opinions on certain things. I'm very open-minded and willing to listen to what everyone has to say. :)
