Hi there,

Anyone tested the range on this set now? How far is it? Is the effect visible enough so that you can stack your team easy enough?

    The tooltip is pretty self-explanatory ... there's no range requirement for the new set.

    It's not like Sanctuary or Ebon Armory, for example, which have a range limit on group members.

    That said, "projectiles" doesn't cover all incoming direct damage of course. Bow abilities, magic abilities like Force Shock and Mages Fury, and ground effect abilities are all excluded.

    The reworked set is better than it used to be ... but you'll need at least a full 12-person half-raid to get much use out of it.

    I believe he is talking about the effective radius of the aura for team members to receive the 10% ranged damage reduction.

    Doesn’t the tool tip say “within the aura”? To me that sounds like there is a predetermined range of effect that your team needs to be within to receive the buff, exactly like sanctuary. So you’re saying there is no range to the buff?

    I was thinking something like extended ritual. If your teammate stands in the buff they get the effect.

    But that’s all moot if it doesn’t reduce bow or magic range abilities. What does it reduce then? 🤔 That’s a sad set actually if thats true.

    @Taleof2Cities no way it doesn't work on bow ablitys. That alone makes the set worthless. It really needs to work with everything that crystallized slab absorbs. And then up the damage reduction to 25%.
