Ok guys, this is my first attempt at creating a concept class. It's pretty incomplete right now, and can use a lot of work, but I wanted to know what you guys thought.  It's similar to the ranger and ritualist combo from gw1.
Also, the numbers I used for damage are pretty much just place holders with "1" being a standard or base damage.

Spoiler

Sage
Class Mechanic:
Splinters:
Weapon Splinters: weapon skills that splinter off for AoE damage and bleeding
Sage Bar: As splinter weapon skills cause damage, the Sage Bar begins to fill up (similar to the Warrior’s Adrenaline, or the Necromancer’s Life Force).  Once the bar is full 2 options may be chosen by F1 and F2, the bar offers no passive effects.
Offensive Splinter: The Sage explodes with power gaining 5 stacks of fury and might for 5s, and causes AoE splinter damage to all nearby foes.
Defensive Meditation: The Sage shields itself in a protective ward for 3s gaining 10s regeneration and 5s protection.

your off to a good start, the "traits" become a mind r**e at times, i designed the concept class friar: http://www.guildwars...pt-class-friar/

so you may find you'll become a broken record for some part, re-explaining a few things.
also, i highly suggest to keep your original plan/what you like, then add a 2nd part of the class the forum's helped come up with, like i done, as for being concept, this is our own little art work, were not suggesting it to be added etc., so basically dont over care about people saying "it needs this, etc."....like in my post, i highlighted the fact i hadn't add damage/healing/range/radius numbers, and still read "it's to OP at healing" LMAO, just a few tips/heads up
