Original challenge level 1 lasted 20 seconds and it was kind of a useless spell to use on other classes. The only use it had was to dismount and to make it harder for your opponent to regenerate mana and hp. That right there was the only use which has nothing to do with reduce hit chance. 
Now the new update at amun with the -% spell resistance and concentration at level 1 which is only 5 seconds is just crap. Imagen chasing a mag down you cast it, it last 5 seconds and by the time you get anywhere close to the mag it wears off? Maybe the only affect it may have is to skill it at level 5 which very few knights will do and seems like a waste of skill points. Even at level 5 its 15 seconds. Imagen running after a mage they cast pricky ivy or tornado on you and by the time you run after it again your spell wears off? Pffs.. Thats what i call a useless spell and a waste of skill points.
In my opinion the best use for this spell is to make it a speed reduction spell, like level 1: -5% speed reduction, level 2: -7% speed reduction, level -9% speed reduction, level 4: -12% speed reduction, level 5 -14% speed reduction. Either that, or leave it as it was before, is my opinion. |
I haven't tested this, just a theory:
The new challenge might counter Sotw if casted before.
I don't know though how the calculation works since i haven't tested it, if the absolute value from sotw "overwrites" challenges debuff.
