[dev1017] Make Cover a Job Trait?

[Rorrick]

It wouldn't work because what if there more then 1 pld in the group? or what if there was 10? would dmg just not be taken by anyone in the party or would it just be spit between pld?

I missed this before, but whoever is standing in front of everyone else will be taking the damage. You could have an alliance of Paladins but only the one at the front of the proverbial congo-line will be taking the damage. Cover doesn't block AoE TP moves either so those will continue to hit everyone.

Actually i misread your original post and thought it mention something about just having a pld in the party to take a certain amount of dmg from each person that take dmg (I know my apology for that)

But now we on a whole different thing, is this would not only break pld, but would eliminate any control in battle. Although Enmity and survivability in aby may not be a problem as long as you keep hate off the mages. Outside aby this would have dire effects o not only pld but other jobs as well. For example, thf, they are suppose to be able to control over where hate is going, with this JT won't need it, just have a pld stand in front of the one with hate and no problem, tank won't even have to use anything else and they can tank.
