Ok I was sceptical since I saw this skill is aggroing mobs, but I still went around playing with it a bit and for a while i was thinking ... i just have to play around it.
Nope! its just soo frustrating.

Im fighting in IC/ Cyrodiil 1v1, 1v2, thinking all is gonna be ok.. I use radaint and suddenly ALL FRICKING MOBS in radius of 30 meters (ex. farm, main gates, tower...) start focusing me along side those DC im fighting.
When Im in IC sewers fighting mobs or 1 ganker I AM PULLING BOSSES that show up and are still 30m behind me unknowingly, before I would even hear a sound.

Basicly playing IC or Keep PvP as a mag Templar right now is a guaranteed 1v1+30NPCs you pulled with uor buff..


I think i got the point across of how frustrating 28radius aggro skill is - Its not EVEN DAMAGE.. i just need it for my poor regen :(
Plys think about this design choice.. Im all good with it being a debuff, but u essentially made it the biggest area aggro in this game.

Plys kill aggro on magikcasteal debuff - as it is it makes me hate templars.. my main and favourite class :(

    I do have to agree on this. Not really a problem for me, but the debuff has basically no negative consequences for the target hit with it.

    I mean if Mark Target doesn't agro mobs, I'm not sure why Radiant Aura would. Mark Target actually applies a negative debuff.

    Also making magicka steal a non-negative debuff would solve any problems with the skill removing people from stealth.

    I agree. I just hope they don't go for the easier fix and reduce the range.

    It makes mob pulls on blazingplar soooo easy and fun though.

    I selfishly have to vote to keep the agro.

    Elemental drain before the change was not a problem, you was able to place it without taking aggro. Magickasteal should work same.
    Or perhaps it should work with line of sight ?

    Did I miss some update to this skill recently? Did they add "taunt" to the skill's effects, or is it just aggroing to you because you're the only person around using an aoe skill?

    No taunt :) but its just a buff and it agros.. if you want to debuff only guy in front of u so u get magicka return on him and in turn you pull all the NPCs in the world without even damaging them.. there is something wrong.

    I agree, i cast this on a trash mob of 3 "monsters" and before you know it, I'm fighting every skeever, mudcrab, and everything else in what feels like a 10 mile radius... a bit annoying when killing a couple tigers so I can grab some oak wood, praying to mara that i get some heartwood, turns into me fighting every animal in the forest while some lucky SOB comes singing along, takes the wood, giggles, and runs away...
