    Astrologian Royal Road tooltip

    The tooltip for the Royal Road buffs read as
    "Duration of the next card drawn is extended"
    "Potency of the card drawn is enhanced"
    "Adds area of effect to the next card drawn"
    Which isn't correct, as a card drawn under Royal Road which is subsequently Spread will not be applied with a bolstered effect at a later time should the aforementioned Royal Road buff be removed or consumed with another card and no new Royal Road effect be gained before the held card's usage.

    The Japanese tooltip reads as
    "次に発動するカードの効果..."
    Which unless I'm mistaken means that the next card invoked or put into effect becomes augmented through whatever Royal Road buff is active.

    Thank you for your feedback! After some discussion, we've decided to revise this to "the next card played" for applicable tooltips. You should see revised text come 3.06. If there are any other tooltips that you happen to find confusing, please don't hesitate to let us know!

    Provoke... so many new tanks believe that using provoke on an initial pull gives them a huge amount of emnity that dps cant pull off them.. only to get angry that the healer or dps gets threat a second later....

    After discussion, we've decided to revise Provoke's tooltip to "Gesture threateningly, placing yourself at the top of a target's enmity list." Whether or not people will take note of the change and alter their behavior accordingly, well...

    I would suggest this: "Gesture threateningly, placing yourself at the top of a target's enmity list at that instant."

    While talking tooltips...

    How about clarifying Barrage? More like, "your next single target weaponskill will strike the target two/three times, but be unable to critically strike"?

    Woah...

    I made a thread about this ages ago.. never thought an off the cuff comment here would actually get a response. Good Work Corvinoobus!

    That gives the idea moreso that it should be used to pull an enemy off another person rather than as an initial threat generator on a pull

    That might not always be the case. I often pull with provoke because of it's huge (for a melee class) 25y range (by comparison, Shield Lob is 15y), instant cast, off-gdc effect. Extremely useful if you want to let a mob group get closer safely, pick individual patrol mobs alone, or if you need to pull two groups at once.
    Of course, that doesn't detract from the text being very misleading, and I can only welcome the change. Just know that not every tank that uses provoke to pull doesn't know what they're doing

    That would sound like it's temporary, like old taunts used to work.
