How in the world did you make that Magnetic Aura box of info?? I am not sure how --JAX-- --The preceding unsigned comment was added by User:JAX (talk).

WTB buff

I agree - it can be maintained with Glyph of Renewal but that burns your elite. TBH, anything can be maintained with various skill recharge elites. Alternately, a +20 enchant and Glyph of Swiftness at R16 lasts about 30s giving 30s downtime.

Lets compare two similar skills: Magnetic Aura and Whirling Defense

Magnetic Aura
Energy 5
Cast 1/4 (1 sec due to aftercast delay)
Recharge 60s
Affects Melee Only
Additional Effects: none.
Duration (R16): 21sec
Recharge Synergy: skill recharge Elites (Glyph of Renewal, Oath Shot, etc).
(also Master of Magic casters use it for a recharging spell)

Whirling Defense
Energy 10
Cast 0
Recharge 60s
Affects All Attacks
Additional Effects (R16): 11 damage to adjacent foes when taking ranged damage.
Duration (R16): 21s
Recharge Synergy: "On Your Knees!" warrior non-elite or skill recharge Elites.

QED, for 5 energy (not counting expertise discount) you buy an un-interruptible and un-Daze affect-able, instant, all attack blocking, conditionally damaging skill that synergies with a non-elite (as seen in some R/W Stance Tank builds).

Really, this and Swirling Aura (Shields Up! is MUCH more useful - 50% block + 24 armor for earshot, 30s recharge but a few less seconds) need work, or the nerf bat needs to be used on a lot of other skills. Add an armor buff, decrease recharge, make vs attacks, heck even 100% block for, say, 4-10 seconds or something like absorbs X amount of damage. Really, I've only seen these two skills on MoM caster builds, and those have pretty much died out. --Falseprophet 22:13, 1 February 2008 (UTC)

Reduce recharge

60 seconds is too much for this lame skill --The preceding unsigned comment was added by User:Mrmoe (talk).

Clarify the PAGE

so which is it? deal damage, or reflect damage? and do YOU deal it? as implied by the non consice desc or does the enchantment do it? --The preceding unsigned comment was added by 70.64.118.20 (talk).
