unyielding Sovereignty on self?

[Clawkin]

I was just wondering if this is an ally only spell or if FvS can cast it on them selves

[MystDragon]

Unless Unyielding Sovereignty is different for FvS than Clerics, you can use it on yourself. (I have a cleric, not a FvS.)

For me it's usually used as an emergency ability since it doesn't tap into spell points, and I have never had it interrupted (I'm not sure it can be.)

I used to save it for myself so that I could focus my SP's on the party, but now I usually use it in those "*** - is every hit they are throwing maxed?" situation for the high end melees with tons of HP.

When you spam them with heals and their HP bar moves so little compared to other players - you know they have a lot of HP. And I found the UnSov ability to be just the ticket for me. I throw that at the high HP which brings him full and then alternate heals, mass cure for the rest of the party. This works pretty well for me.

(Sorry - a bit long winded, but I thought I should add in how I use it higher levels vs. lower levels.)

Thank you the extra info is much appreciated

There are a few ways Unyielding Sovereignty can be interrupted:
1. Getting Tripped.
2. Getting Paralyzed/Held/Stunned.
3. Having your hitpoints go below 1.
4. Your target runs away.
5. Feeblemind
6. Beholder Antimagic (not positive)

Other then that it always works. Some of these are not as applicable as others, as it casts pretty fast. It is worth noting that Unyielding Sovereignty can however be used while madstoned.

I never thought of trying it madstoned. Good to know.

As far as I know the Beholders Anti-Magic doesn't affect spell-LIKE abilities like dragon-marks but I dunno if UN-Y SOV falls in this category

probably because thats a spell...maybe elaborate a bit.

it may remove it but you can still recast it even in the zone (though then it gets removed again, but then you can still recast it again )
that you cant do with normal spells

Is that confirmed? Can't find the reference to it, but I swore I read something on the paladin forum where Unyielding Sovereignty could be used while feebleminded.

That one I wasn't entirely sure of myself actually, because my Sovereign Host Clerics rarely ever seem to get feebleminded (and if you can use it while madstoned, you might be able to use it while feebleminded I suppose).

Found it, here's the reference: http://forums.ddo.com/showpost.php?p...00&postcount=3

At least back in February, Unyielding Sovereignty was usable while feebleminded. That's pretty amazing.

Never mind, wrong thing

It works under both circumstances, to this day.

Necro!

Why is it that when I try to use it on someone else it always targets me?

It also works under water, where other heals don't.
Handy for Crucible swims.
