[edit] Notes
- Synergizes well with Whirlwind Attack, Sun and Moon Slash, Mark of Pain, etc.
- Because this triggers on attack, you don't actually have to hit for the damage to occur.
- The damage coming from this skill is triggered before your regular attack which means that using +damage skills will "ignore" skills like Reversal of Fortune and Life Sheath.
- Also, since the damage applied by Hundred Blades is indirect, it will not trigger more damage on Holy Wrath or Retribution.
- Because this damages all "adjacent foes" it will miss kiting opponents as they will have moved away by the time the attack connects.
- When Whirlwind Attack is used, this skill will trigger from each foe Whirlwind Attack hits instead of just on the initial hit.
- Details of the rebalancing of this skill are available here.
Although Hundred Blades is no longer an attack skill, it triggers the typical sword hit sound when dealing damage.
[edit] Trivia
- This skill was non-elite prior to the release of Prophecies.
- This is one of five elite skills seen in Pre-Searing Ascalon, the other four being Barrage, Bull's Charge, Earth Shaker, and Ward Against Harm.
- Swords in this in this icon are Gladii
