About the increased range on level - I found a way  ^-^
I turned Marksmanship into a self-only toggled skill aura with 16 levels, called Hawk's Eye. Each level is linked to a separate weapon enchantment file with no effect attached, instead the 16 weapon enchant files link to 16 different projectile files. Each projectile file has increased distance profile than the previous. With maxed Hawk's Eye you can hit the target on 35 meters. Neat.

Drafted some ideas for new weapon types:

Spoiler for Hiden:

Base Dmg - Physical / Elemental means % of base physical damage is converted, similar to piercing weapons.

New offhands (all use Shield Template):
Melee Offhands – Serve as shields with lower block and absorbtion, instead have a chance for additional damage. Dex/Str Requirements. Dual wield is not needed to use.
Quiver Offhands – Cannot block, add % attack speed and other bonuses to bow and thrown users. Dex requirements.
Magic Offhands – Cannot block, add % cast speed, energy regen and other bonuses to mage users. Int requirements. Work with staffs.

I bet the templates will send this idea also to the scrap, but I'll try to do it first.

Dude nice thinking there! Sounds like a mean skill and am liking the chosen name for it too  8)

As they are in the drafts right now, Dionysus - has satyrs, maenad, silen, briar ward, and the maenad can summon a fox and 3 wine sprites.

Update on the class names (many names are changed, added explanations on some of the words):

Spoiler for Hiden:
Apollo = Seer
Ares = Warrior
Artemis = Hunter
Athena = Defender 
Dionysus = Bacchant (the common name of a priest of follower of Dionysus)
Hecate = Sorcerer (since Hecate use many types of magical skills, I chose this instead of Theurgist or Necromancer)
Hephaestus = Artificer (the follower of Hephaistos is much more than a simple blacksmith)
Hermes = Rogue
Zeus = Priest (I moved Stormcaller to Poseidon + Zeus)

Seer + Warrior = Harbinger
Seer + Hunter = Haruspex (in Ancient Rome - a priest, who practices divination by looking the entrails of animals)
Seer + Defender = Templar
Seer + Bacchant = Ritualist
Seer + Sorcerer = Hierophant (a priest who interprets the sacred mysteries. He was the leader of Eleusinian Mysteries, connected to the underwold, Persephone and Hecate)
Seer + Artificer = Pyromancer (literally "fire-diviner". I put it here, as both classes are fire-based)
Seer + Rogue = Minstrel (the original greek words are "aoidos" or "rhapsode" used for a wandering poem singer in Classical Greece)
Seer + Priest = Oracle (a seer-priest who connects with a deity to receive advice or prophetic visions)

Warrior + Hunter = Slayer
Warrior + Defender = Warlord (both Athena and Ares are related to war, and combined they should make the perfect commander)
Warrior + Bacchant = Zealot (frenzied and ecstatic fighter, no better name I think)
Warrior + Sorcerer = Warlock (I imagine this one similar to Geralt from the Witcher series)
Warrior + Artificer = Battlesmith (Both skilled warrior and craftsman)
Warrior + Rogue = Wardancer (a swift and agile fighter, mostly dual wield. The word "Assassin" is arabic and doesn't fit much in Ancient Greece imo)
Warrior + Priest = Warpriest (self-explanatory)

Hunter + Defender = Sentinel (I used Warden elsewhere)
Hunter + Bacchant = Wanderer ("Ranger" always made me think of Lord of the Rings)
Hunter + Sorcerer = Demonhunter (A hunter of evil spirits, I never liked "Bone Charmer" tbh)
Hunter + Artificer = Trapsmith (a hunter-mechanist)
Hunter + Rogue = Brigand
Hunter + Priest = Augur (a roman or greek priest, who practices ornithomancy - seeking omens in the flight of birds; "bird-diviner")

Defender + Bacchant = Warden (a forest protector, i think Warden sounds more forest-based than Guardian)
Defender + Sorcerer = Soulkeeper
Defender + Artificer = Armourer (both masteries will buff armor, another name for a tanker :P)
Defender + Rogue =  Vindicator (means defender of justice or liberator)
Defender + Priest = Palatine (an older word for paladin, from the time of the Roman Empire)

Bacchant + Sorcerer = Shaman (nature + spirits + using drugs and alcohol :P - it fits imo)
Bacchant + Artificer = Conjurer (word is closer to crafting than Summoner)
Bacchant + Rogue = Enchanter (more relater with charming than Illusionist)
Bacchant + Priest = Thaumaturgist (means "wonder-worker")

Sorcerer + Artificer = Alchemist (I think if fits well both masteries)
Sorcerer + Rogue = Dreamwalker (both Hermes and Hecate can travel between the physical and the spirit world)
Sorcerer + Priest = Theurgist (means "divine-worker", a sorcerer who connects with greater spirits and deities for power) 

Artificer + Rogue = Saboteur (trapper/bomber, a more fantasy Odysseus with his Trojan Horse)
Artificer + Priest = Thundersmith (The Elder Cyclopes are all Thundersmiths, forging Zeus' thunderbolts)

Rogue + Priest = Apostle (I imagine it something like wandering sage and preacher)

----

Changes:
Seer + Rogue = Minstrel (changed from Chanter, the latter sings only psalms)
Hunter + Sorcerer = Demonhunter (changed from Shaman)
Hunter + Artificer = Trapsmith (changed from Flameslinger)
Defender + Sorcerer = Soulkeeper (changed from Soulbinder)
Defender + Artificer = Armourer (changed from Fortifier)
Bacchant + Sorcerer = Shaman (changed from Sacrificer)
Bacchant + Rogue = Enchanter (changed from Trickster)
Sorcerer + Rogue = Dreamwalker (changed from Planewalker)

Also changes in Poseidon classes (I put them last because I'm not sure if this mastery will be included):
Poseidon = Seаwalker
Seawalker + Warrior = Corsair
Seawalker + Hunter = Krakenhunter
Seawalker + Artificer = Earth-shaker (an epithet of Poseidon as bringer of earthquakes)
Seawalker + Defender = Sea Warden
Seawalker + Rogue = Argonaut (alt is Swashbuckler)
Seawalker + Bacchant = Wavespeaker (like a sea druid)
Seawalker + Sorcerer = Sea Sorcerer
Seawalker + Priest = Stormcaller
Seawalker + Seer = Forecaster (foretells sea storms and the future as general)

If you don't like any of the class names or have a suggestion for better ones, let me know.

New stuff:
1. Mastery description for Dionysus is done.

2. Ares' Dual Wied tree is replaced with one-hand spear/sword tree. Animations are done, skills need some tweaking.
3. Dragon has returned  >:D His breath attack now hits multiple targets (before it hit only one, which was useless). It does fire, burn, venom (instant poison) and slow poison damage. Remains to buff his bite and hand swipe attacks to be more useful too.
4. The whole Ares Mastery is back to 24 skills total (i'm still importing the old skills).
5. Battle Rage tree will also be reworked to a permanent excusive aura (Battle Trance, Trance of Wrath or something like that). As I said before, in Deities all the masteries will have their own exclusive aura.
A little video to show the changes:

I'll leave Poseidon for last. If it's included at all, his pets hill be 2 melee Ichthians and 1 caster Triton Priest. But for now Poseidon gives me most trouble when I try to balance weapon bonuses, damage types and other things in the drafts. Will see how it goes.

Today's progress - I'm trying to finalize Ares mastery, to have first of the three masteries complete for the alpha release. New stuff:
- Dragon's basic attack is buffed to hit multiple targets (up to 3) and does % Health Reduction
- Improved texture for War Banner
- Sown Warriors have less epic looking equipment at lower levels and spawn with different shields for more variety.
- All Spear/Sword proc skills work as intended now.
- Battle Rage is renamed to Trance of Wrath - a toggled party aura. The icon and the effect are done, remains to tweak the skills bonuses.
- Battle Prowess skill bonus is changed. Before it gave +OA and bonuses vs Beastmen; now the +OA is removed and it has bonus vs Beastmen and Giants.
- Vanilla War Wind is reworked to Shield Ram, a skill similar to Shield charge.
- Updated some of the icons in the mastery screen.

The first three Masteries for alpha release will be Ares, Artemis and Hecate. I'll focus on finishing them, and add more Masteries one by one after that.
