Subject: SV: Digest Number 202


Yeah i see what ya mean, but i dont think Veerant will go that way. better then to tune up our AE spells. Like if we cast it on a tank and say the spells hit 3 MOBs if you do this after a few hits all the ones that the tank dosent hit on will go for you right ! i would like to have it that all the agro goes on the tank, it should realy be this way from the begining i think couse it there opinion it�s the tank who hits them. Just like damage shields!!

And maybe lower the resistance on AE spells, say like 8 or 10 levels above the caster.
