    Please post details about it once you get it b:thanks I'm interested to see if it works as advertised, because a number of people have reported that their class skills do not.
    /fingers crossed

    Got Ice Prison today :3

    It's fun. <3

    Admittedly not terrifically practical, but for group PvP it can be a tidechanger (Targetless popinng of every sin in a 12 metre radius AoE?F yea.)

    Oh, it amps too.
    I've quit excluding TW for my faction. But I still hang around to help out those who still enjoy the game under PWEs horrific handling and to have fun in the forums. b:cute
    #Shame about PWEs absolutely craptastic handling of the goons glitching. Remember kids, there's no punishment for breaking the rules here!#
    If you make a valid complaint, your thread will disapear. Don't post it here, post it on other sites where PW can't hide it.

    do you know if it works like an elemental shell or can you have stone barrier and arcane defense at same time?

    Ice Prison for CurseD.

    If you find the other skills recorded, feel free to compile mine into it, the video is marked as CC (Just credit me :P).

    Now you owe me a recording of Arcane Defence ;P (I'm working on Sand Miasma now).

    arcane defense is extreamly nice, it saved me in tw a few times, and the fact that it is a buff that lasts 5 minutes, makes it so it's only on when you want it on.
    Not to mention the animation is very "new style" and the shield you get is colorful :P

    i agree ^^ and i think that it is good when it works on normal atks only. cuz if it works on skills. everytime a seeker/ knife throw of sin/ range of bm/ we will leap. and i think that sucks.

    like how sin knife throw 1st on SoR of psy then stun right away

    That's what my concern with arcane defense was. Still, I just hope that archers and sins that carry bows don't get savvy to the normal attack thing and start knocking us back in TW every time we start casting an ult b:chuckle

    And I guess using arcane defense against archers in 1v1 wouldn't be very smart would it? Anytime the archer is close to dying they could just normal attack us to knock us out of spell range if they needed to.

    I have arcane defense. it's a very good skill. It doesn't seem to work vs. Skills, only auto attacks, but still, a very useful skill. That and it seems to purify all debuffs, not just 1.

    wait does it work on all auto atks or just melee auto atks?
    as in does an archer normal atk knock us back? looking @ skill description

    Description says it's vs melee only, but we know those can't be trusted. It would REALLY suck if we get knocked back by an archer auto-attacking. b:beatup

    And about Ice Prison I'm a bit disappointed, it definitely can be useful in some situations, but for two spark cost I expected it to at least deal some of damage. :/

    Does the skill description actually specify mele auto attacks? If not I'd guess that any form of auto attack would knock us back.

    edit: Apparently it does. But Leni is right, the skill descriptions haven't been too trustworthy so far, so let's just wait and see what those that have it have to say b:cute

    it works only on melee normal atks.


    from ecatomb.net

    Creates a protective barrier. When attacked
    with melee strikes, the caster will be pulled
    backwards, and one negative ailment will
    be removed. Lasts 5 minutes.
    Effect can occur once every 25 seconds.

    Requires 30 Chi to cast.

    but ya it removes all negative buffs ^^

    i already tested arcane defense in pk <3
    it cant be purged
    remote attacks will not trigger
    old buff will not be overwritten, so you need to rebuff every 5mins

    seems arcane defense can be canceled if youre channelling, not quick sure how it works.b:faint

    I got it but I don't have a way to record. It is very nice. It does shoot you away from the attacker pretty far and it does seem to proc fairly quickly once a mellee apser auto attacks.
    In combo with distance shrink an holy path, you can escape pretty easy from autoattacking sins/bms. It also works with bm axe skills, so none of that stun lock **** anymore.......
