Falling lotus strike is better than this

crap someone start a discussion over here! What i dont understand is how Falling lotus strike is better than this :~ anyone care to tell me?--Blahishness 15:23, 30 January 2009 (UTC)

Falling Lotus Strike isen't particulary better but people like energy gain more as some poison

I tested both of these skills earlier today. The problem with them appears to be that they don't check for the condition on use. They do not use the skill if the target has not been knocked down; however, sometimes the AI pauses for a moment before using the skill, which causes it to "whiff". They check to see if the target was knocked down, but not if they are currently knocked down or still will be by the time the skill activates (something humans have no problem with). The difference in dps is small (like 6), but honestly I would still put Falling Spider on the hero bar over Falling Lotus Strike, assuming heroes used them right. I base that off of the fact that heroes don't really spam skills well, and 8 critical strikes is often all of the energy management they need. 24.13.211.110 13:25, 26 November 2011 (UTC)

Icon

Is it just me, or does the icon look like a Skree from Metroid? o.O--Unendingfear 17:32, 30 October 2009 (UTC)

At that size, it kinda does, but if you look at the high resolution icon you'll see that it's a pair of daggers placed over a spider. Haruno Midori 17:09, 1 November 2009 (UTC)
