||
− | '''Fade''' is a temporary aggro reduction that can be used in parties. Its basic function is to reduce all Priest-generated threat for the duration of the spell, taking the Priest off the top of the threat list. This allows a priest to use Fade to get enemies off of them while they heal their party members. The key is to not use Fade too soon, otherwise it will be cooling down when it's needed, and to not use it too late, or else it won't matter. '''It is a common misconception that using Fade regularly will help lower a priest's overall threat for the duration of an encounter.''' |

Fade is a level 9 priest spell, used for temporary aggro reduction while in groups. It also reduces enemy aggro radius when active.
