What?

They already highly toned down Celestia, the world isn't difficult right now.

If you're having that much of a problem, then try attacking with a DoT.

If they were to alter anything, it should be the frequency in which Life Mobs use the death/dream shield. Very unfair towards up coming Necromancers.

I totally agree. The last time I did ranked pvp against a level 10 warlord, the dude just spam shields over and over and over again. Then, surprise, he used a max pip judgement treasure card on me. This is seriously annoying, but I don't think Ki can really do much about it.

Hi Ryan,
Don't know what school you are but... Here is some general advice.

Pack ice or tower shields if you have them.

If you have any Damage over Time (DoT) spells, be sure to use them.

If you are Life or Storm, just know that whatever damage you do will probably be reduced by 50% and plan to hit/heal more often. Sometimes, using your school minion can help. Storm's minion loved spamming low level spells and the Life Sprite often casts Leprechaun. Then you just blade up and hit when you can.

Take one out at a time if you can't get them all at once. Heal up. Repeat.

They are obnoxious but, as a previous poster said, they've been much reduced from how they were back in 2010! Believe me, they are much easier to manage now.

Good luck!

Celestia introduces a wonderful aura called Infallible. The treasure card version of this grants 20 pierce to every spell you cast, and pretty much eliminates fizzles. The Archivist also sells +10% pierce spear treasure cards for every school (aside from , I think).

Load your sideboard with a mix of spears and blades for your school (and the aura if you don't train it) when fighting enemies. Between these charms and the aura, you'll hit very hard.

I would recommend utilizing pierce TCs and maybe even Shatter. They were key for me when I was questing through the shield-heavy worlds.

With Sun enchants and an Enchanted Armament pet, I can kill tower shield users with three versions of a school blade and a global, considering that I'm doing this on my Ice and I can't really use Snow Angel against Ice mobs.
