Tips and Tactics

  • It can be used in aggro-sensitive fights to avoid getting aggro.
  • Holy Nova generates no threat. However, it will put you on the aggro table, so if no other player is attacking a mob, the mob will attack you.
  • Its mana cost is very high, so avoid spamming it if you will need to heal after you hit it a few times.
