'''Pressure''' is an offensive magic skill of the [[Paladin]] class that crushes a single enemy with holy force and sears away part of its remaining spirit. On this server Pressure has been reworked from its original fixed-damage form into a ranged Holy magic nuke that also strips a portion of the target's current SP.

	== Overview ==		== Overview ==

	Pressure calls down a column of holy energy on a chosen enemy. ~~Because it~~ now deals magic damage of the Holy element, it ~~benefits from~~ the caster's magic power ~~rather than~~ physical attack, giving the Paladin a reliable ranged option against foes that are weak to Holy. Alongside the damage, every cast burns away a slice of the target's current SP, ~~making~~ it a useful tool against spellcasters and SP-reliant enemies.		Pressure calls down a column of holy energy on a chosen enemy. It now deals magic damage of the Holy element, so it scales with the caster's magic power instead of physical attack, giving the Paladin a reliable ranged option against foes that are weak to Holy. Alongside the damage, every cast burns away a slice of the target's current SP, which makes it a useful tool against spellcasters and SP-reliant enemies.

	== Mechanics ==		== Mechanics ==

	The skill strikes once per cast at ~~range and ignores~~ the ~~target~~'s ~~Flee, its element resistance,~~ and ~~resistance cards~~, so the ~~listed damage lands consistently~~. ~~It also ignores~~ the ~~usual damage reductions applied in battlegrounds~~ and ~~War of Emperium~~.		The skill strikes once per cast at up to 9 cells. Its damage always uses the caster's '''maximum''' MATK rather than a roll between the minimum and maximum values, so the result is consistent from cast to cast. Damage then goes through the normal magic defense calculation and the target's elemental resistance, exactly like any other Holy spell.

	'''Damage formula:''' Damage = 150 × SkillLv (% of MATK)		'''Damage formula:''' Damage = 150 + 150 × SkillLv (% of MATK)

	'''~~Effect~~:''' On hit, ~~the target~~ loses 20% of its '''current''' SP. The amount ~~drained is independent of~~ skill level and is ~~taken from~~ whatever SP the target has ~~at the moment of impact~~, so repeated casts ~~have diminishing~~ absolute ~~returns~~.		'''SP burn:''' If the target survives the hit, it immediately loses 20% of its '''current''' SP. The amount taken does not depend on skill level or on the damage dealt, and it is always a fraction of whatever SP the target still has, so repeated casts return less in absolute terms each time.

			'''Casting:''' The cast cannot be interrupted by incoming damage, so the Paladin can commit to a Pressure in the middle of a fight.

			'''Devotion:''' Pressure bypasses [[Devotion]] and always lands on the enemy it was aimed at, instead of being transferred to the protector.

	== Leveling ==		== Leveling ==

	~~Higher levels raise the magic damage in steps of~~ 150% MATK ~~per level~~, reaching ~~750~~% MATK at level 5. ~~The~~ SP cost and cast time ~~also~~ climb with level, so higher ranks trade a longer wind-up and more SP for greater burst.		Each level adds another 150% MATK, reaching 900% MATK at level 5. SP cost and cast time climb with level as well, so higher ranks trade a longer wind-up and more SP for greater burst.
