I have noticed alot of archers dont know what this is or how to correctly use it lol.

Nature's protection
casting distance 1.5m
cool down 30.0 sec

what this does is make you lose a great amount of aggro on the monster(s) you use it on.

*Note* ALOT of people dont know but you HAVE to be 1.5m away from the enemy for this to work, if you lost aggro when you were farther it was probably a coincidence, like someone over aggroing you naturally. (1.5m is like almost touching the monster)

It only works when another person near by also has some aggro on it.

if used properly, you will have 100% chance to lose aggro (as long as someone else has any kind of aggro on the same enemy)

*Note* If the enemy is in the process of using an attack or skill you will not lose aggro until it has finished it.

just sharing some info, hopefully a few will learn to use it properly lol

Lol thanks flash... I had thought about posting this same thing a while back when I got into an argument with my guildy who believed that it was an AOE attack O.o

First off, Nature's protection is a party skill. This is to lessen aggro upon yourself and among party members (particularly the cleric and mage who takes away aggro off the fighter) within the cloud of mist (where this 1.5 thingy is being so talked about).:D

Using this skill while kiting or soloing is not very effective because your the only one whos doing damage:D

^^ I like it for PK'ers and KS'ers ^^ In grinding I only use it when I'm gathering mobs and dumping on the tank (so I can go gather next batch). Sadly, this style of grinding has mostly been replaced with the continuous kiting...

Well it does great in the Abyss.....we can manipulate them....to kill other parties

So....the equation is...

Abyss

Archer vs party= archer FTW
Archer vs mage=Archer FTW
Archer vs cleric=archer is bored
Archer vs archer= duo! FTW
Archer vs fighter= archer pwned

I think it should also be noted that only monsters generate aggro. Using a skill like this in PvP is a total waste of SP that could have been used in an attack skill.

I would like to comment on something flashboom missed:

Mock gives fighters a set amount of aggro. Nature's Protection is similar in that sense... Your aggro does not automatically hit zero just because you use Nature's Protection correctly. As I became higher in level I noticed that, as I gathered with my aoe kiting skills, and attempted to Nature's Protection them to the tank (the tank mocking and deva'ing properly) that, several mobs still come after me. Me regaining aggro after deva's stun wears off is not an issue, as it only hits a limited number of mobs.

This happens even moreso when I'm killing tough mobs, like the ones in GHS or TR. Since they take so long to die, whether I gather or simply steal aggro, if I wait a while to use Nature's Protection after I aggro them, I notice that they don't always go for the tank or cleric.

Damage output adds to aggro, mock adds to aggro, Nature's Protection subtracts from aggro, yet it does not erase all aggro.

Thats SO much fun xD. Once this mage kept trying (emphasize on the word try) to ks me. I let the mobs catch me and used the skill, and the mage... well you know. DIED
