Lolno[edit]

Making it so a Melee doesn't get ass-raped everytime they go up against a caster is bad amirite? There are a million and one ways to kill anything that swings its weapon to do damage, in almost every caster profession. Empathy, B-surge, A goddamned laundy list of Necro skills, Almost anything that uses a wand can heavily fuck with anything that doesn't. This one particular Build being able to fight back and win doesn't make it overpowered. --BriarUser Briar Sig 3.jpgThe Spider 04:10, 26 March 2011 (UTC)

Seriously, if you dont want your pages/edits to be deleted/reverted, REGISTER! ^_^ --Falconeye 04:22, 26 March 2011 (UTC)
Right, Briar, but turning damage into life steal, being a mini-unholy feast when you use it, having no cast time, and having a low recharge do make it overpowered. ~Shard User Shard Sig Icon.png 04:56, 26 March 2011 (UTC)
Perhaps, but being able to D-Shot 90% of those mini-unholy feasts Kinda balances it out. Doncha think? --BriarUser Briar Sig 3.jpgThe Spider 05:02, 26 March 2011 (UTC)

If you upload a video of you D-shotting a Flash Enchantment, I will give you all the gold on all my accounts. ~Shard User Shard Sig Icon.png 05:06, 26 March 2011 (UTC)
Metaphorical Dshot shard. --BriarUser Briar Sig 3.jpgThe Spider 05:09, 26 March 2011 (UTC)
The "mini-unholy feast" refers to the initial effect, not the attacks themselves. Morphy 09:40, 26 March 2011 (UTC)
A nerf is needed, indeed. This skill make dervish much more superior to all other melee classes especially in combination with 'Grenths Finger', only counter/particulary counter: multi ench remover + anti melee hexes. Just watch 4vs4 gameplay in RA/CA... overpowered as hell with vamp weap, grenths avatar + grenths finger... --Kali Shin Shivara 04:07, 29 March 2011 (UTC)
I don't understand why the made it like this in the first place :S - J.P.User J.P. sigicon.pngTalk 12:19, 29 March 2011 (UTC)
I don't see this skill on it's on as problematic as it only converts a certain ammount of damage into life steal not at +damage trough life steal like AoG does. The problem is the combination of AoG, GA and GF usually combines with Pious Restoration having a powerful combo of life steal and condition and hex removal with effective health gain (not healing) making it very difficult to counter. The skill itself can be easily countered but it's the other skills around it that make it so strong to use. Nerfing one skill into an abysmal state will only piss people off since it will only be a skill nerf and not a skill balance. Besides Avatar of Grenth already had it's life steal reduced because it's effect is added as + and cannot be countered once activated nor be removed, Grenth's Aura however can easily be countered and removed using basic caster hate, same with Grenth's Fingers and Pious Restoration. Also on a side note The life steal combo you claim is overpowered, i have owned a helluva lot with a simple Wounding Strike build. Nerfing it will only bring forth something even more powerful, try to keep that in mind next time you cry over a skill. Damysticreaper 11:39, 7 April 2011 (UTC)

(Reset indent) I'm still not seeing anything wrong with this. Melee Characters have been getting more and more shaft of unlubricated Genitalia shoved further and further up their Anus' with every caster update. Now a Melee stands a decent chance of fighting back against the massively overpowering effects of Hexway and B-Surge. I'm failing to see how this is bad. --BriarUser Briar Sig 3.jpgThe Spider 11:44, 7 April 2011 (UTC)

Because there is nothing wrong with it. Like i said it before general caster hate works excelent against the Flash Enchantment as does general melee hate works on the attacks of the derv, it's just that the derv has counters for those strategies that is the problem wich makes it difficult to prevent any form of damage the dervish deals not just grenth builds. Those guys ranting above about it needing to be nerfed because they call it OP are simply missing the point of what makes it so strong. Damysticreaper 16:13, 7 April 2011 (UTC)
