Discussion


 * Issue: This is part of my "make Smiting viable" campaign. Give this skill a better defensive ability than it has atm and make it not only prevent a single KD.


 * Suggestion: "Elite Enchantment Spell. For 3...10...12 seconds, whenever target ally would be knocked down by a foe, that foe is knocked down instead." *5 Energy  *0.25 Activation  *5 Recharge.

Maestro Ed's Issue

 * Issue: As above


 * Suggestion: "Elite Enchantment Spell. For 3...10...12 seconds, whenever target ally would be knocked down by a foe, that foe, and all foes withing earshot of that foe are knocked down instead." Now THAT might be worth it, particularly as you could use it with 0 in smite like a prot spell when you saw an incoming warrior.


 * Alternate suggestion: "Elite Enchantment Spell. For 3...10...12 seconds, whenever a party member would be knocked down by a foe, that foe, is knocked down instead." Mass single use knock down prevention, but I still don't think anyone would take it... 79.67.101.254 21:10, 29 April 2008 (UTC)

Falconeye's Issue

 * Issue: As above; while protection line focuses on "active defense" (Aura of Faith), smiting should emphasis "active punishment" (Reversal of Damage) and offensive support.


 * Suggestion: (5e / 1/4c / 5r)
 * Elite Enchantment Spell. (5...9...10 seconds.) The next damage dealt to target ally is negated, and attacking foe is knocked down and takes 15...51...60 holy damage.
 * Appendum:
 * - - (Smiting Prayers) - Elite Enchantment Spell. ( seconds.) Whenever target ally would be knocked down, the attacker is knocked down for  seconds. Whenever target ally causes a knockdown, that foe is dazed for  seconds."

Justice's Idea

 * Issue
 * Does nothing worthy of an elite slot.


 * Suggestion
 * Elite Enchantment Spell
 * Target ally is enchanted for seconds. Target ally cannot be knocked down. Whenever target ally causes a knockdown, the foe is dazed for  seconds.
 * Target ally is enchanted for seconds. Target ally cannot be knocked down. Whenever target ally causes a knockdown, the foe is dazed for  seconds.
 * Target ally is enchanted for seconds. Target ally cannot be knocked down. Whenever target ally causes a knockdown, the foe is dazed for  seconds.


 * Give the spell a real offensive edge. Only at high ranks in smiting will it become a seriously deadly enchant.--Justice 10:28, 12 January 2009 (UTC)
