    Default Curious About Ebon Staff? See This!

It is kind of like mage needs to be a "tank" to get the reflect to work properly, which is not the mage's task to be a tank or taunt enemies.

    Freeze / stun skills on mobs will stop reflect process to work, as they are not attacking the mage (as haze mentioned). I think this needs a rework on ebon staff process. I doubt sts will change anything to be honest. Adding DOT damage to the reflect will greatly enhance what the ebon staff work more efficiently like magma dot.

    Warriors will always taunt enemies as well as mages will always stun, freeze, distract, pull out etc...ebon aegis in platoon (random) is not as OP as you imagine. Wake up!!
    I think there’s some difficulty with communication here. I edited quotes to try to make it easier to understand. Here's different ways that I'm interpreting it:

    1.Both Ebon Staff and Ebon Aegis should both trigger reflect shield on dealing and taking damage.

    2.How procs are triggered on Ebon Aegis and Ebon Staff should be swapped. Ebon Aegis triggers reflect shield on dealing damage and Ebon Staff triggers reflect shield on taking damage.


    I understand the part with the staff's issue being that the mage has to act like a tank in order to be effective.
