Dual 1+ Shield changes

[täisdibla]

The only thing I have to complain on this update is the fact that ss is now Self-casting. B4 i get 200 people bitching on me let me speak my mind. I SUPPORT SS BEING SELF CAST thinking of war scenario.. people casting ss on the the other nations ranks and people just having to look at the priests WAS LAME, BUT, I think it should be able to AT LEAST cast on you allies/nations and only NOT DURING war time. These changes are being made to appeal new players and balance the game, but most people forget how important ss is when your lvlin in a party and u guys are low lvl noobs.. I dont know about all players but I've always lvled my first lvls in Ice dun with some low lvl warrior or priest tanking with ss while mage noob blasts and etc.. I was using it until recently, SS'n the warrior that was tanking on Minos so he didn't have to burn more pots that he had..

All I am trying to say is that I think the ss being self-casting doesnt need to be removed, just altered a bit.. because it balanced the PVP a little, but removed almost completly the PVM purpose of the the spell, that was a great feature.

its more efficient to ss the priest and let warrior splash, just because of the huge buff to splash dmg warriors recieved

That is true, if I have a SS tank for my warrior he blasts faster than 5 tile lightning, but it's still sometimes needed to SS party members

not always true. If there's only 1 priest in the party, it's better to ss the warrior because if the party doesn't damage to kill the mobs before ss runs out, the warrior will die and the priest won't and will be able to res. If the priest dies, the party needs to wait for the priest to run back to town to res. It might be a bit slower but it's safer.

Plus now that you can only cast miracle of recovery on yourself, priests will burn through more pots while tanking under ss. Usually the priest will load ss, run and round up the mobs, then right click on himself while the mobs walk to him to get the most time out of ss. Meanwhile there's a high change he'll get hit a few times in the process. Before, the priest tank would just use miracle of recovery on a nearby party member and get healed as well while under ss. Now that recovery is self-cast, the priest under ss can't cast on himself so he must use a pot in order to heal or risk dying if ss goes out and he won't be at full hp.

to bad he wont be able to afk lvl

[Karvinen]

its easy to move out before SS runs out

I never afk level, so my viewpoints are innocent in that department. I still think ss should be castable on party members

[Noeyesee]

I never afk level

we all never afk it's illegal

That's where you're wrong

[LadyPhoenix]

not if you're a priest with a WIS/PS build and 5K hp or 10K hp tanking mino's.

The Dual Shield only for warriors thing was discussed a lot with players before puting it...
