the +special portion of it is essentially the same thing as power boost
this boost duration of stuff like mez duration and buff values (clarion +special combined with power boost + veng = insta 100% defense to everything lol)
ok ill reask the question does Dark Armor have any secondary effects? that clarion will boost?

Dark Armor has a Stun aura and a Fear aura. IIRC, the Fear aura also has a To-Hit Debuff. |

I don't know whether Clarion will affect any of those, however, since I haven't looked at it in any detail. Perhaps someone else can answer that.

The stun/fear from Oppressive Gloom and Cloak of Fear will last longer, but that's not very important on an aura power, as long as you stay near the mezzed targets. The stun from Soul Transfer will last longer as well. Dark Regeneration will probably heal for more, but that hardly matters when 2-3 targets will full-heal you anyway. Cloak of Darkness would provide a little bit more +defense. Your +resist toggles will not be affected.
Rule number six of an empathy defender is NEVER underestimate a blaster's ability to die. I don't care if he has CM, Fort, both RAs, bubbles (both FF and Sonic), and is fighting next to a Storm defender with hurricane on. If there is a way to die in that situation, the blaster will find it.

It should affect all 3, if it works anything like power boost. Power boost won't affect knockback, resistance, and -resistance. But it does affect any other secondary effect you may have.

That sounds about right, except for the bit about Soul Transfer. Unless I'm mistaken, like most buffs, you lose it if you die, so while it could hypothetically enhance the stun duration, in practice, that's actually impossible.

ok now that clears up all my questions thanks a million guys. oh and for the record Doctoer kumquat that defender 6th rule, No one told us blastrs we could die,honest we never got that messege. ya got to understand we fight with a throwback attitude to our EverQuest days as wizards, were like a tank or warrior on crack with an attitude is all and if they would just have given us a good dodge skill everything would have turned out just fine. lol thanks again.
Doh, of course it wouldn't be able to affect Soul Transfer. Not sure where my brain was on that one.
And Talestar, about 2/3 of my playtime is on my blaster(s), and my Arch/EM blaster is actually one of the most survivable characters I have. The sig is a joke, although I suppose it's nice to see more old-school EQ vets.
