Smokescreen has lost some of its magic from before where it could be used as a Line of Sight break, playing into the "Tricky" nature of the class. Instead its just a very awkward to place line of smoke.
And I honestly never see someone actually use it, because of it.
My simple change to it would be:
3 Tile circle AoE. (or flexible AoE size with increased FP costs, but I think 3 is a good number, making bombs still the better option.)
And cause I feel ST should have way more tricky effects, maybe TRICKY: Sneak Status, when cast with you inside a smoketile/range.
Makes it also play into the Spellthief passive of +10% damage for being Sneaking.
I think this would be great for both PvP and PvE. if it needs to take a hit on the amount of hit it reduces, then that's fine too.
