I understand your position and still request wards/Absorbs(shields) on the cleric alongside lance or dual targeting.
Even wiki can't say for sure what "mechanics" are. So it's all fucking subjective, even in the professional world.
It's obvious that you either disagree with my understanding or I'm too shit at expressing my thoughts to properly explain it to you.
I already said that I disagree with Noaani's point of saying that Ball was just a dmg ability.
To sum up, this is an absolutely pointless semantics conversation. I should've exited it back when I noticed that the discussion was moving in this direction. I shall exit now. I've made my point as well as I could've, so if you still don't get it - oh well.
If you want to assume it is bad because you don't believe in the game simply say that, and i don't think anyone will argue with you.
I would agree that the ability has some synergy with other abilities, but it doesnt have any cross over as it was introduced in to this topic (a single ability with multiple effects).
Now, if the electrified status effect that the ability leaves has an effect on the mob (which we have not clarified), then one could argue cross over.
However, synergy between abilities there is a given - but synergy isnt cross over.
Electrified is a type of status effect in Ashes of Creation.[1][2]
Reduces magical mitigation.[2]

Cool, then when you add that to the information initially laid out, one could argue that this is cross over. Very minor cross over, but still cross over.
Since I am only able to comment on the information at hand, obviously adding more information will change the comments I have to make.

I mean, there is the fact that what he is saying is fucking obvious.
That really should count for something here, tbh.
He didn't reach a conclusion, he gave up arguing with a brick wall.
I'm less inclined to give up.
An effect that reduces damage is little more than an effect that deals more damage. It is essentially more of the same function.
An attack that deals damage and a taunt are different functions with different purposes.
You claiming that you see no difference between these things tells me you are simply "looking" with your eyes closed, You do not want to see. This is why NiKr has ceased his discussion with you.
I find that sometimes the best way to attack a brick wall is to swing another brick wall at it.
Taunts pulls aggro instantly too you, without needing to building it up. Building aggro you are trying to hold aggro on a mob or multiple mobs and keeping them off your team that are all having skillls to dps/ support, etc slowly pulling aggro to themselves.
This is basic stuff if you have ever played a mmorpg,
By tanking and holding / pulling aggro so the rest of the team doesn't die, this can't be a serious question.
They are different but fall under the same category it just is different tools. Taunt is simply a much more powerful way of generating aggro, more so the easy button.
you can argue they are the same, you can argue they are different because of the more detailed nuances of holding aggro and multiple tools you need to do and watch out for. Arguing about both doesn't matter though, just kind of pointless. I'm sure i missed thing so i don't even know why this is an important point.
I'm just going to straight up ask are you trying to insult me for now following every post right now. I'm going to double check if these are directed at me,...
If it has nothing to do with me then you are free to reword your response if you have one ill ignore that post for now.
If you are making comments not at me don't quote me in it please and thank you.
.... I'm asking why are you discussing something so pointless. How about go back to the original point you wanted to make.
Your point is you haven't seen the class so you are assuming it is bad right? (seeing a preview is not seeing the class by the way)
