Skill shadow bind ?

Kamael Classes Started Last reply 20 posts
Can anyone explain me what this skill actually does. I used it on a mob 2day, but i didnt notifie any damage or so.
Maybe someone has experience with it in pvp.
It immobilises both your target and yourself for the duration. Your target can still use skills and ranged attacks, though - I believe might be able to attack in melee as well, if someone is in range.
Would be more useful if it was a 2-way form of anchor imo.

Both chars frozen, both chars unnable to be harmed for the duration. This would be really useful for taking out certain chars in pvp when it lands. As it stands...not so useful.
so if u have help such as a tank and mabey another slow dd, it wouldn't be useful for imobilzing archers trying to kite ur party? /sarcasm off

honestly the 100% land rate is more then enough to make this skill extermly useful. it works on RBs as well last i checked, good for when the tank loses agro. nothing is better then 30 seconds for the tank to regain agro before it kills ur main damage dealing nukers.
yes very useful for mass pvp and raids for example

in mass pvp when you see a frenzied hero destroyer you can shadow bind it and let all the mages/archers pound away at it

in RBs you shadow bind the RB when the tank loses argo or the RB minions come back
Shadow BIND works on RBs??? Wow...
Shhhhh.. don't tell everyone about this skill, can't wait to try it out myself in a few levels :)
Shadow Bind (Lv1): Grabs enemy's shadow : Is this skill area effect or only 1 target effect. Cause I thought that were area effect, but in siege and while fighting mobs I can only grab 1 target at time.

Thx
Pardon my ignorance for not knowing what class gets the skill.. I'm pretty dumb when it comes to who gets what (only been playing like 3 days). But I imagine the "Run" or w/e skill for berserker that charges at the enemy, then bind them would be nice, because it would allow you to beat them up w/out them being able to move. Though if this is a Breaker skill, I guess it kinda defeats the purpose of my whole comment..
It's a soulbreaker skill

You root one target and yourself

the enemy can still attack while your stuck there

majorly flawed skill imo
It's kinde useful, but not solo ^^ 100% land rate!

Keep in mind that it can be interupted by damage, trick/switch, sleep/root/para etc.
It's perfect for raiding.
i foresee tank party formed of 2 SB and SH ...
I doubt that the sh is needed since regen covers the 30 second gap of HP ( for souls ) and MP for cast ...
but just in case ...

While the rest of the people are nuking ...
Only need one SB, you can recast when the spell is over. :>
Keep in mind MP is drained while the skill is in effect also. There wasn't anything about that in the description, but I noticed it when testing it out in the arena.
Tank party: Tank, SB, Bishop, SwS, Rechargers. The RB will still hit, even if it is immobile so unless your raid force is 100% ranged...
1SB, 1EE, 1WC, 6archers, thats all you need.

SB roots

EE mp regens

Archers tear up RB

Job done in a few mins and move on to the next one.

either EE or SE

WC is needed or atleast a prophet


Perfect for archer(EE) or nuker parties(SE)
Your party wont have the DPS to even hurt the RB badly. No cat buffs, no BD, no SwS...
So it will take longer to kill the boss, but hey - practically no risk.
I wonder if it works on Dragons (Antharas, Valakas). If it does, it might be very interesting, until the next update comes and fixes it.
