Forgot to add, thats not a critical.

I wipe the floor with Battle Mages in PVP so it's ok.

Remember that time a Battle Mage wiped out like four people including you in one sitting? I do.

[Mark]

Proof of said ass kicking?

Proof of said ass kicking?

your mom recorded it
go ahead, ask her.

Fix'd

It is powerful, and it is awesome. But it doesn't happen often enough (or strong enough) to be "broken." If it happened 100% of the time maybe...

Just realized that's probably the last strike on a normal X combo. My Exorcist can hit twice for about 2k total damage if I charge the last strike.

[MasPan]

2nd hit of a hand cannon combo for me always does 1300 or so on a neutral target. Still, not bad.

[Holypie]

That's level 35+ MasPan, Zephyr is level 27.

No, its the first hit, seriously.

The animation looks like that because i was doing x -> Backstep cancel -> X -> backstep cancel and so on, testing the 1 in 100 chance of getting a thing i will give the name of "lucky stab"

His is 1/100 chance, mine is 100% chance.

[Zephyr]

1/100 was just throwing around a number, but i think it could be somewhat accurate... i just love herding a huge mob and just stabbing it... the random 1k's+ and pomegranate suddenly dying is priceless.

Also maspan, guess how much that hit would escalate if i was your level.

At your level it was still 750 or so each 2nd hit. So 1k more for a 1/100 chance = meh.

Take note, that hit was a low end lucky stab, I've done over 4k too.

That thing is so random and powerful that screams Must patch all over it...

Practice? There's not much else to say. Battle Mages do extremely well in PVP.

It's just like getting a critical hit in Pokemon. It's unavoidable, it's a sonuvapeach, but it mixes up things a bit.
