There is a skill (second on the first tree) that does something like equalize the damage among the party to a certain extent, there is also another one called Damage Return, it is a passive that returns a portion of the damage given to you back to the opponent (30% probability, or something.)

Then there's the first taunt I skipped, that detracts the enemy's attention from yourself.

Are those worth it?

If you want a party, you MUST have those skills.

Otherwise, stay outta my party :/

That taunt skill attracts monsters on yourself.
You can pull and tank many monster so nukers in your party can wipe floor with them.

Well I just need to know how useful they are in order to decide whether to spend any sp on them or not.

Bump.

Very useful, get them or parties will hate you...

But wouldn't "detracting its attention from oneself" mean the opponent not hitting you?

And if I'm not mistaken, the damage equalizer would do something like this:

Mage gets hit 100
*Skill activates*
Party member 1 gets hit 20
Party member 2 gets hit 20
Party member 3 gets hit 20
Party member 4 gets hit 20
Party member 5 gets hit 20

Right?

Warrior 1st book/ 1st skill is awesome and a must in parties where you're tanking. Btw if your main is warrior you won't really play other roles in a party IMHO. Also, it's good if you want to pull a mob to you, 'cause you don't want to accidentaly pull the other aggro mobs nearby it. However, you must consider that this skill's an AoE one.

2nd book/ 1st skill... hm.... I don't really know how it works. Here's my version:
Basic damage on you is 100
Number of persons - Reflection (%) - your dmg - others dmg
1 - 35% - 65 - 35
2 - 35% - 65 - 17,5/each
3 - 35% - 65 - 11,66/each

1 - 40% - 60 - 40
2 - 40% - 60 - 20/each
3 - 40% - 60 - 13,33/each

Hope you got what I mean. It calculates the given % of the damage you gain and it divides among the targets of the skill. However, it's only MY THEORY and IMHO it works like this.

Right?

The game company messed up the translation.

Oh wow.

And that damage spreading skill doesn't look too useful, to be honest. It's such a slight thing.

Why not just leave everything out >>. Seriously taunt is like a warriors signature move to pull mobs. You're not a warrior without taunt. And the other skills all help with your defense and the defense of party members, so yes get them all. If you don't, you'll be an inadequate warrior. Also the skill may seem little now, but as you level it, obviously the number will get larger.

+1! Totally!

You might think that taunt is a totally junk thing, but later on - when party hunting will be the best/safetiest/fastest way to lvl you'll surely get into the role of a tanker as a warrior. Then your role will be to keep the mobs on yourself.
1; Taunt is good because it pulls over the mobs + warrior attack skills also generates aggro, so if you've taunted the bad guy you can keep it on you.
2; I haven't used pain quota yet, but as I see it, it'll be quite good in parties, 'cause you will hold on longer.

Someone on my wave length, these skills are a must for parties, and if you're a warroir in my party without them, then your gone simple as.

I see, thanks. Anything else I should be aware of?
