[IB] Oathstone

Post#1 » Sat Oct 06, 2018 8:00 pm

PROBLEMS:
1-is a 13 pt skill mostly for pve use (on the tanking mastery for orvr), as 4 block every 30 sec not retain any valuable use in rvr especially when it's a 13 pt selfish skill and the upper half of the stone mastery is not currently of any use for small scale or either rvr.

2- is not a good contendor with other 13 pt skills both internally the IB class and externally with all other 13 pt skills of other tanks on any mastery,

3-dont make use of the class meccanic at all so it cant be used for help the oatfriend nor for yourself as there are better option to spec into which dont require this much investiment.

SOLUTION:

modify oathstone
oathstone will now snare you for 40% but make you be immune to the next 4 attacks made against you plus additionaly retain the dmg backlash as now based on grudge. Your oathfriend is affected aswell if they're within in 50 feet of you (tought not affected by the snare)-

DISCLAIMER:
in pve it retain his use as block 4 attacks or be immune to it is almost the same thing (and it can be made work only on blockable attacks so there is no difference at all even for pvp).
-the main diff between block vs immune is that immune work 360 degree but it can be still made bypass from morales etc so it should not create any issue.
-you also need immune instead block for make a workable effect similar to block also on oathfriend-ed classes which are not tanks (or on tanks with no shields)
-the skill came with a price (tradeout ) in term of snare; should snare you aprox for some sec min even if the buff eff fade immidiatly like aprox 4 sec (of course snare dont stack).
