Was that FIVE FREAING TODS off of one ToD? Jesus H Christ, I think my monk may not end up as bad as I originally thought!

[Hendrik]

I got your back, Hendrik

Thx pal!!

[Drakos]

bleh just disable your rep. It is stupid the way it works now. Only the ones with high rep get to neg rep people? dumb. also you dont get to see who neg repped you. even dumber. I shut mine off and say what I want without fear.


As for double strike, I tried it out and have not been impressed so far.

Yeah, but shutting it off only supresses the display of your Rep level. People can still +/- rep you you just don't see it. Get enough neg rep and you still go into auto-moderaterd mode.

On to the Double Strike. I agree this is one of the few positive additions to the DPS changes.

Don't think you can get neg repped into auto-mod unless you're a total tool to everyone... if you're a ddoomie, they'll support while the fanboi's neg you, if you're a fanboi, they'll support while the ddoomies neg you.

No. He has stunned the target [edit].

Awesome to see something positive about the changes, and some combat log, rather than speculation...

[bloodyrag]

all i can say is wow 188 on a crit witha great axe was it swung by a wizard with an 8str? only kidding its nice to see someone saying something good about the changes if it helps even a little in clearing lag i say yay +1rep to u

[Eladiun]

Seriously...whoever negative repped me....GET A LIFE.....OMG....you know I will reserve a bunk for you at the "DDO veterans too afraid to deal with change" hospital.

Really...... wow.....take all you raid gear and builds that are now "worthless" <----sarcasm..... and don't let the gate hit you in the *** on the way out.


Goodbye and good riddance.

Balanced the Scales. +1

[Bolo_Grubb]

That is sad. Maybe someone is thinking - I will neg rep anyone that has anything good to say about double strike because I don't like it. Well, +1 rep to you.

Agreed +1 rep just for the info. Thanks

[carlosjuero]

Nice to see someone getting some data out of testing.

I am basically an outspoken/quiet nobody on the forums but +1 rep because the neg rep was uncalled for.

No. He has stunned the target [edit].

Actually it looks like 7 TOD's and stunning a target should do nothing to help my Touch of Death.

[Drekisen]

What kind of character?

One swing of my great axe on my 20 kensei pure fighter.

The nice thing about a crit on a doublestrike is it applies both times unless your crit confirm is awful...which on a 20 kensei it shouldn't be.

[LunaCee]

Given that it involves stunned mobs... I'm assuming that between auto confirmation on the stunned mob and the "new" doublestrike chance and using a special attack that the special gets "stuck" as a weapon property until the stun is over? So I'm guessing your paladin as soon as they stun something is smacking exalted smite and just crit smiting things out of existence?

[Seikojin]

Thanks vVvAiaynAvVv. When I heard they weren't going to add stwf I thought it was because something glaring appeared on the radar. It is the data on doublestrike. It happens fairly often.

Hopefully the combat change reduces the lag. O.o

[Tomalon]

Uhmmm..I was swinging a Greataxe....lol

That would do it! lol

Sry if i missed in your OP where you stated what kind of weapon you were using.

Either way very nice.

[Epitome]

I enjoyed seeing a doublestrike after my off hand proc hit all on one, single Touch of Death. 1500 points rolled away from the mob (+all the other dmg aside from the tod) with the click of one button. I was a little confused how I was getting this to happen in fire stance IV though.
