Your going to have to modify that poll to reflect properly on all sides or no ones gonna be happy try this.

1. Keep it as it is
2. Can only cast it on your own nation
3. Give it a Cool down timer
4. Can be blocked by SFD

Dont even add take it out the game as no ones going to go for that. SS keeps priests alive as tanks befor lvl 100.

fair enough point.

thinking sfd counter is best because it only really has pk implications. for use only in nation would just mean people would use it to defend stones. and a cooldown timer would have to be longer than it would take for it to run out to have any effect, which would spoil it for tanking.

i'm being stupid. sumthing like a 60sec cooldown wouldnt stop people from self casting but it would stop people from spamming it at war....duh! any way, i still think sfd counter is better coz it would promote team work in war

a timer is bad becouse early game ss last nothing,and sfd blocking it isnt either a good option, ss is a great help for those that need to go afk for a couple of min or get traped by npc and since sfd is by default the shield they will be using you get the idea of what is wil happend next, olso the fact that there are other shields types,so my vote goes to Can only cast it on your own nation.

2. there's no need to keep it only casteable on own nations, cuz some ppl seem to think it can be usefull to use on enemies
3. cooldown isnt something that will help that much, it would help the spamming, but priests (espeacially as lower lvl) use it a lot for lvling purpose
4. same like curses, i think ss should be preventable when using pro or sfd. i think this would be the best solution
5. self cast onyl wont work at lower lvls i think... sometimes priests ss another player so he can tank easyer (when it's a warrior with max parry already for example)

man last option shouldnt of been sfd, should of been blocked by all protections, like lets say i have ice shield on, or lightning shield, or maybe protection from a wizard, then SS could not be casted on me just like, sfd cant be casted on a wizards with dragon scale,

all protection not just sfd

Can just transfer or make a priest in the opposing nation and SS people. "I'm just trying to help them! U KENT WEPOWT ME".

Protection is the most efficient way to do it imo.
