Toucher caster skills suck. Raptaz 14:12, 6 December 2007 (UTC)

No they don't. It just depends on what you combine them with (like touch rangers)? Nicky Silverstar 21:33, 8 December 2007 (UTC)
This skill is hella overpowered 110 armor ignoring, and theres a copy if they dont die with your first spike 06:17, 6 January 2008 (UTC)
Okay, what would be the point of a touch ranger with monk skills? Isn't the whole point to have life-stealing NECRO skills? DarkSSK 7:51, 1 January 2008 (UTC)
I remember back in the days when I farmed with my monk, and combined this with Shield of Judgment. As Nicky stated, it entirely depends on what you combine them with. ;) — Galil User Galil sig.png 06:26, 6 January 2008 (UTC)

A Hammer Warrior could easily use this with Devastating Blow / Backbreaker, plus Crushing Blow to inflict a hell of a lot of damage. Paladin for the win anyone?--Nemeon Lion 20:25, 1 July 2008 (UTC)

im trying exactly that now. but hammer monk. very brave. --The preceding unsigned comment was added by 76.252.230.34 (talk).

Do heroes use/save this for when foes are knocked down? I'm gonna make a earth magic based team if they do...

PvE Melee/Smite can go Strength of Honor, then Brawling Headbutt -> Holy Strike. Technically W/Mo can use stonefist insignia to headbutt->holystrike->stonesoul but the energy is an issue which makes me sad. 75.158.134.214 02:35, 26 August 2011 (UTC)

Icon[edit]

I'd say it's the same icon as the icon for the trait/skill/ability "Meditation" from Diablo II. Mainly because they're both related to divine magic, but also because I've never seen a hand trying to poke out someones eyes, being used for design before. As well as the ragged "mantra-like" circle around them both... or am I completely off here?... I think not (and no I'm not a Diablo-fanatic, only just started the game now) 77.213.235.141 15:12, 8 September 2011 (UTC)

Many similar finger gestures are used religiously, so it's not necessarily a "poking eyes out" thing :P | 72 User 72 Truly Random.jpg | 16:04, 8 September 2011 (UTC)
Bummer... Can you name one of these religious finger gestures? I did sort of think about that as well, though can't really remember seeing any like this one. I still think there is some relation to be honest, but if you can provide a term I'll happily look it up. I am ready to be convinced and converted ;) 77.213.235.141 16:53, 8 September 2011 (UTC)
Or even just cultural gestures, as in 1:53-54 of this cruddy movie trailer. Doesn't mean that it's not from Diablo, but it does make it possible that the image could be showing some kind of "spellcasting" gesture or something... | 72 User 72 Truly Random.jpg | 02:47, 9 September 2011 (UTC)
I agree with you, and even it was from Diablo, I still wouldn't add it as trivia as there are no other things in commen with the 2 skills. I just saw it in Diablo 2 and thought of this skills icon isntantly, and got very curious about it... It's more a personal interest than relevant knowledge from the wiki haha, hence why I posted on discussion, not added it (: 77.213.235.141 09:05, 9 September 2011 (UTC)
