Information

Rescue

Contrary to what was once widely believed, the rescuer does not need to target the actual tank. He can choose anyone currently fighting and his or her opponent will then focus on the rescuer.

Another way to change tanks, much more efficient than rescue when it can be done, is style tanking.

Smaug 1.4a

Success of rescue depends on the learned percentage of the rescuer and the luck stat of both the rescuer and the rescued. Each luck point translates into a percentage point, which either raises or lowers the initial learned percent, and has significant impact on whether the rescue skill will likely succeed or not for a typical 80% learned rescue.
