[QUOTE="DanmarLOK, post: 4626772, member: 71480"] But doesn't the mark go on the ally and not the monster? Or am I just confused? Target: One ally in range. Maybe if it was written, one ally and one enemy in range as kind of a duo mark? And then the sacred mark erases existing marks. So it's more of marking a creature with a holy damage shield versus a specific monster? Example (for my own clarity): Jim and Joe and June, paladin, fighter, wizard respectively are fighting Orca and Orcy. Jim marks (tethers) June and Orca with his sacred mark. June now has little crackles of holy energy dancing over her. If Orca attacks June he takes the radiant damage. Orcy suffers no consequence in attacking June. Joe kills Orcy. Orca is obviously thinking about running so Joe marks Orca, 'getting up in his grill' so to speak which disrupts the Sacred Mark that's binding Orca and June and the power effects on June are grounded out. Orca decides to stick it out and kill June. Jim steps up to the plate and uses Sacred Mark on June which wipes out Joe's fighter mark as joe takes a step back and no longer as threatening to Orca. That's what Orca was waiting for and bolts for the hills. Something like that? If so that I can certainly get behind and use. It certainly helps give the paladin his own flavor and set him off from the others and as long as the mark's wipe each other. [/QUOTE]
