This skill, by far, overpowers probably every other protection spell. 68 Damage reduction for a 3 sec recharge skill!? Think about it with Mo/W: 25 damage reduction is a lot. Titani User Titani Ertan Sig2.jpg Ertan {{Snappy the Turtle}} 19:53, 17 August 2009 (UTC)

When i looked at 1 adrenaline and 1 second recharge.... WTF?! It would be overpowered, even as an elite! - J.P.ContributionsTalk 21:28, 17 August 2009 (UTC)
Reduced damage reduction at both ends and increased recharge to 3. I wanted this to be a good spammable tanking skill or a quick self-prot spell for warriors, getting that balance right is tricky. Suggestions? Summit Axe.png St Lucretia 21:51, 17 August 2009 (UTC)
I like this skill. If you use it well, then it's great. If you use it badly, then it gets wasted on a staff hit. Should go back to previous reduction now that it's 3Recharge time, otherwise it's not too useful against crazy high damage ele spells. P.S. Don't try to say this would be too good for monks. Much worse than Armor of Sanctity. -~=Sparky User Sparky, the Tainted charr sig.PNG (talk) 08:39, 19 August 2009 (UTC)
Dude, you just gave every warrior out there an enormous shield and damage reduction. It is wwayy overpowered. This much damage reduction shouldn't exist unless it is very long recharging. Titani User Titani Ertan Sig2.jpg Ertan {{Snappy the Turtle}} 08:47, 19 August 2009 (UTC)
Even if this IS used well, it isn't that extreme. If you're in the front-lines you're no way guaranteed to reduce that big hit instead of a tiny staff. Summit Axe.png St Lucretia 08:52, 19 August 2009 (UTC)
Exactly. Look at Reversal of Fortune, Life Sheath, Reversal of Damage, Xinrae's Weapon, and Protective Spirit. Obviously it already does exist in a very not long recharging way, with much better effects (not to mention using them on allies). -~=Sparky User Sparky, the Tainted charr sig.PNG (talk) 09:15, 19 August 2009 (UTC)
Why should Warriors have Reversal of Fortune in STRENGTH? Titani User Titani Ertan Sig2.jpg Ertan {{Snappy the Turtle}} 09:56, 19 August 2009 (UTC)
