Another GTHF question

[Drona]

hiya

I have all the 3 THF feats. Now i would like to replace GTHF with Stunning Blow as I took Toughness feat already.

If I do that, what am I potentially losing?

Can WF-THF Enhancement lines balance the Glancing Blow loss?

Level 20 Pure Barb

Thnx

What you lose exactly is:


-10% to all glancing blow damage

-3% chance to apply weapon effects to glancing blows

-1 glancing blow at the end of your chain. You will get 2 free glancing blow attacks instead of 3 when you auto attack.


And no, the WF-THF Enhancement line only adds 2% chance to apply weapon effects to glancing blows per tier (max = 6%), so it would take two tiers to regain that aspect of the feat. There is no enhancement line that adds glancing blow damage other than the capstone, and there is no feat in the game that adds glancing blows other than GTHF.

thnx for ur reply!

maybe i ll ask turbine to add another feat for barb so i can have both toughness and stunning blow without going Multi-class

the half orc and wf THF lines that increase the chance of magical effects are a horrible way to get any bang for your buck. The damage returned per AP invested is horrible even in the most ideal of circumstances. It'll have zero effect on a sword of shadows, and still only give fractions of a damage point per AP on GS weaponary.
