Please put a range limitation on shield lob / tomahawk

[Taruinatho]

I usually only pull with provoke and slam my flash macro on WAR. That plus riding Featherfoot on cooldown has gotten me 500 comms. Tomahawk is already pointless enough, just remove it.

I use shield lob to drain my TP, so I can be cool and use my "BRD TP SONG NOW" Macro.

Then the brd armies I keep getting in ST will all use it and you can spam it to your hearts content

It's a video game. If you really want to play semantics here, we should have our shield unequipped after the first Lob. Surely that makes more sense, right?

And us warriors without an axe. On that note, lets make arrows a consumable so that people can craft them and abuse the markets.

Player choice, if you don't like Tomahawk or "think" it shouldn't be used outside melee range don't use it. Simple enough just like fracture.

[Eggnook24]

Exactly! It's just out of melee range just as I have requested.

No one said to tab target mobs. If you are doing a group right you will not have to target but one mob.

Bad tank is bad.

Sometimes a lob is needed for that extra aggro, and it's off GCD, so if you're in a RoH combo on 2 mobs, and the third one turns to the healer, if provoke is down or mp is low (which happens a lot when spamming flash), it's a viable attack.

Why remove/limit an ability in a tank's bag just for emersion? It's a fantasy game.

Shield lob is not off GCD lol

[LionKing]

Shield lob is quick aggro grasp tool besides Flash. All first move in any combo for Pal or War does not gave aggro generator built-in. I still don't see what to justify for the change??? And for the sake of argument, let say it is changed, don't blame us if we can not get the aggro back fast enough, and you are dead because of that. I can so see that coming, like really, no kidding....Please, use your intelligent better, please!!!

[LukeyP666]

Of all the things that need to be improved, you pick this to dedicate an entire thread to?

Just no.

Move along folks, nothing to see here.

I play on PS4. My Lob is a Macro which also puts Mark #1.
Therefore I always start a fight with lob so DPS knows which to go for. During my combos, I normally use the lob to put marker on new target.
I do that on the cooldown so I don't actually Lob noone, just apply the number. But sometimes I end up lobbing when the cooldown finished.


Anyways, I don't see a point in not allowing the skills to be cast.
If you don't like, don't cast. Not everyone is noob/troll like you

Also, this:

Then any attack of Archer or Bard would need a minimum range by that logic.
