Cover

2026-02-19T22:00:04Z

Cowjazz: The Oath Gauge cost change from 4.06a was regarding the PvP action; Cover never cost Oath Gauge in Stormblood.

{{see also|Guardian (PvP)}}
{{Action infobox
| description = Take all damage intended for another party member as long as said member remains within 20 yalms.
| facts = {{action fact|Does not activate with certain attacks.}}{{action fact|duration|12}}{{action fact|oath gauge cost|50}}
| acquired = Paladin
| level = 45
| type = ability
| recast = 120
| range = 20

}}
==Notes==
* {{action icon|Hallowed Ground}} will not prevent the redirected damage when using Cover. Normal mitigation actions function as usual.

* Generally speaking, Paladin players should be very careful with {{action icon|Cover}}, as it is a {{tank}} [[Tank]]'s role to be the target of all attacks already. The uses for Cover that will not result in the tank taking too much extra damage (for example, from raidwides) and dying are very niche. It can be useful to bring a player with too many {{status effect|vulnerability up}} [[Vulnerability Up]]s though a single mechanic, but it's short duration will not keep them alive for long.
