Guardian's Oath

[Shadow Era]

Eternal fame and glory goes to Anurak

[RixZero]

Isn't this almost strictly worst than Soul Seeker?

To compare the two:

Soul Seeker
Cost: 5
Attack: 2
Durability: 4
Effect: When Soul Seeker kills an enemy, your hero heals 3 health.

Guardian's Oath
Cost: 5
Attack: 1
Durability: 5
Effect: Guardian's Oath has +1 attack while defending.

So if I'm correct, Guardian's Oath's only advantage is having +1 more durability. But in exchange, you lose that ability to do 2 while attacking and you don't get to heal 3 health with a kill. :/

EDIT: Forgot that I could post images, so putting them side by side for easier comparing:

Not to mention, Guardian's Oath has the winceworthy "attack when defending" text. :/

[AnAdolt]

Not as bad as "enemy ally" though.

EDIT: As for the bow comparisons, one's an Epic and one's a Rare. Meh. Besides, not all cards can be Portals(or whatever card you think is the best, I'm just using it because most believe so, not that I do).

[arebelspy]

Yeah, oath should probably cost one less. Too late (tick tack changes later are bad).

But there should be a beta team for balance issues (besides the open beta server for bug issues)

This is horrible, why would anyone use this.

[Montag451]

It's not THAT bad. It's not all that good, but good defensive weapon.

if you use gwenneth truesight for this....do you get double damage which is 1x2 then plus the 1 while defending or 1x2 then plus 1x2 defending?

[tangmcgame]

I thought Gwenneth's ability only worked while she was attacking.

You add first then double. so it will be 2 damage *2 = 4 when defending. While Seeker is reversed, for attacking. I go for attacking because the best defense is a good offense. ^^ And Tang has a good point, no doubling while defending, so it is still 2 damage either way when defending while using either weapon. But my statement of how calculations work still stands.
