I looked at it, and the next LV says it only increases the range of it, is there any point in even LVing that if it has no good side effects?

    It's a very powerful reflect skill, only topped by the higher level veno reflect. And it's the only one that reflects magic damage


    Get it. It's quite useful.

    For PVE I wouldn't level it much, as like you said increasing the level only increases the range. Ranged mobs (magical and physical) have a range of around 12.

    PvP-wise it's not going to be that effective against ranged unless you close the gap a little.

    till Any fixes being made leveling up souls pretty much useless since they only increase range and usage of mp . The question is do you really need the range factor vs huge increase in cost??? b:shocked

    I was under the impression that the "range" of it was the cast range - not the effect range. IE, how close you must be to your target in order to cast it.

    Can it be cast on others? If so, I see a use for tanks.

    Vengeance, yes, range of the reflect increases as well as range of the ability to cast on others... the other revenge line skills, no

    Right now it seems best to keep at 1...And if it's changed or that info is incorrect...All you lose is a few levels you coulda been using it buffed slightly (Once you grab it after)...But if you find out it IS useless past 1...You lose a heckuva lot of gold and spirit on it that you could have had earlier helping you out.

    Possibly not worthless to level past 1< Getting skills you know are useful

    I kept it at lvl 1 no point to level it yet, till they change it. According to ecatomb, none of the skills seem to change either cept for range. Hope they change that >.>

    Btw yes it can be cast on other people, but gotta make a choice between casting on you or another.

    "Vengeance, yes, range of the reflect increases as well as range of the ability to cast on others... the other revenge line skills, no"

    "range of the reflect increases " <-- WTF ? Do a huge favor to others and stop writting **** , i see "oracle" leveling hurt you damn heavy. There is NO such thing reflect range in this spell. it WILL reflect damage doesn't matter how far the distance between buffed person and attacker while spell stays on. The ONLY range which increases with leveling skill is the ability to cast it on greater distance.

    b:bye

    Well to be fair, soul of vengeance reflect nothing at all, it deal physical damage based on your soulforce. Since leveling the skill does nothing to increase the damage dealth this way, but only increase the mana cost and the range you can cast it on other(kinda useless), are you telling us mister lv80 that the range also have something to do with how close the monster/player have to be to trigger the mirror?b:shocked

    Edit: We should ask a high lv archer using a lv1 bow and arrow to test that, I think they have 30m range with their passive skill.

    Not range to trigger, range to cast it on someone. Like wnight said, if you get hit, they get hit back, regardless how far they are.
