hiho
i have a question concerning life bond (as you might have gathered from the title... :P ).
if you attack a target protected with it, do you get an indicator?
is the "normal" damage simply halved?
is only the damage shown you do to the attacked target, or also the damage carried over (if so) to the protector?

i wonder because i often see warriors and rangers keep focus on protected targets, with little effect.
and i ask myself why they dont change focus...

i play random pvp, so it might be the general IQ of the enemies though.

The only indication an attacker would have is that the health bar of the opponent has a yellow arrow on it (meaning they have an enchantment on them). There would be no indication what the enchantment is, though.

Although, you would see a fairly small yellow number whenever you hit the protected foe, so that should at least provide some clue.

completely off-topic they nerfed the skill so i think that the indicator or whatever you mean has changed also so it might vary a bit from before it whas nerfed
