Talk: PBAOE skills quick reference

Especially regarding Cyclone axe, can I still truly be defined as PBAoE if you have to use it on a target for it to cause AoE Damage? --Ruricu (Talk • Contribs) 20:05, 23 October 2007 (UTC)

Good question. To help answer, consider that if you wanted a warrior skill that will do damage to everyone around you, does it matter if you have to target them or not? Yes or no, this list will help you find out what those skills are. —♥Jedi♥Rogue♥ 22:02, 23 October 2007 (UTC)

PBAoE

Whirling Defense, Divine Healing, Heaven's Delight, Heal Area, Healing Ring, Karei's Healing Circle, Kirin's Wrath and Symbol of Wrath while Area of Effect, are not Point Blank Area of Effect. --Sekkira (talk • Contribs) 20:45, 23 October 2007 (GMT)

"PBAoE skills are AoE's that affect the area around the caster." <- ORLY?! The fact that all the skills you listed have an effect based on an AoE centred on the user makes them NOT PBAoE? --Kale Ironfist 22:42, 23 October 2007 (UTC)

I didn't list the skills, what are you talking about? --Sekkira (talk • Contribs) 23:15, 23 October 2007 (GMT)

You have a list of skills which you said are not PBAoE, yet by definition, they are. They have an area of effect centred on you. Other than Whirling Defense (which can be argued to be PBAoE), they all fit into the definition of Point Blank Area of Effect. --Kale Ironfist 00:06, 24 October 2007 (UTC)

Should I include the various ward spells as PBAOE effects? They allready have their own article.Rathmun

Probably a link to the Ward article. --Kale Ironfist 00:06, 24 October 2007 (UTC)

I have problems with a few of these: Whirling Defence (Not really sure how this would fits the definition), Vampiric Spirtr (1 foe = not AOE) Necrotic Traversal (Teleport, then Pbaoe? probably, I guess) And several just inflict conditions, which I'm not entirely sure count.

Of course inflicting a condition counts. It's an effect that occurs in an area... AoE... —♥Jedi♥Rogue♥ 02:42, 24 October 2007 (UTC)

I don't think Healing burst is centered on the caster, it's centered on the target. Should probably test that at some point.Rathmun

It's centred on the target. --Kale Ironfist 05:49, 24 October 2007 (UTC)
