I like the concept of the Squard Leader allot, but I'm not sure if the current abilities make itworth taking. Volley shot seems to be the best ability to me, but I have some questions on how it works.


1. Can it fail? Can it fail for one team member and not another?


2. Does it make everyone attack or just give them the target?


3. Are their any negatives, or reason not to use it, or do you use it for every target?


One other question I have about the SL: Is it really better for large groups, or does the size not matter? I have 2 friends who Igroup with, is it worth it for a team of 3?



Thanks for the help.

Fails very often. When it fails, simply nothing happens, you just lose a lot of pools.


2. Does it make everyone attack or just give them the target?



Makes everyone take one regular shot at the target, then go back to whatever they were doing before.


3. Are their any negatives, or reason not to use it, or do you use it for every target?



There is no reason to use /volleyfire except in PvP. Its pretty worthless, and fails often.


One other question I have about the SL: Is it really better for large groups, or does the size not matter? I have 2 friends who Igroup with, is it worth it for a team of 3?



You'll get more XP in bigger groups, but no, there's no other reason a small group isn't great.

useless?


You obviously dont do large groups often. Use volley fire o the sutken captain one round of atacks can kill or almost kill him.


What i wish is that volleyfire two would make it a permant target switch so the SL could control what mobs are targeted.
