Guide to fixing PLD

[Alerith]

i'll admit i forgot about cover but so far i've not found much use for it. it typically requires someone to stand in harms way to get covered. either i dont notice it or the mp regen doesnt proc when your outside 8 yalms.

The MP regen doesn't require your covered target to be near you, or to even have enmity. The game checks two things: Did the PLD take damage? (from any source) and Is Cover active? If both these are true, then the effect of cover will return MP.

but i'd still consider the war in aces challenge thing to have the blinky red box more than the paladin. does cover generate emnity? i cant find anything that says yes.

It doesn't generate actual enmity. What it does is that as long as your covered target is within the 8 yalm distance, it FORCES a hate shift that has the mob turn on you when it attacks and casts.
