Unknown Brother Posted January 20, 2006 Report Share Posted January 20, 2006 DOOMSINGER Syntax: cast 'doomsinger' A ritualistic stance meant to be used with two handed weapon. While under its effects the blademaster further extends the principles of powerstrike, moving and attacking in harmony with the weapon's natural frequency. In moments the blade begins to vibrate emitting a unique high pitched tone as it sings with its own strength. (it does'nt do this.) See also: HELP BLADELORE POWERSTRIKE Syntax: automatic Blademasters because of their total dedication to the art of the blade are able to strike only with the weapon's center of percussion. This allows them to put the maximum amount of force into the blow without the resultant shock and vibration. When a successful powerstrike is performed, the weapon will always roll for its maximum damage. NOTE: A successful powerstrike requires a second weapon to feign and setup the hit. This skill will only be used when you hold two weapons. ------------------------------- Sounds awesome, eh? I was fighting an elf today and figured it would be a good time for doomsinger, to try it out. This is my first blademaster mind you all. And Im pulling scratches through sanc, normaly I would atleast do maims in deathweaver. I asked people about it and they said it makes it so I cant miss, and if I were to miss it would still do damage, but mearly a scratch. Your spear charge scratches Elf. Your spear charge scratches Elf. You block Elf attack with your weapon. You dodge Elf's attack. Elfs flaming bite injures you. Elf's acidic bite scratches you. Ef's wrath decimates you! Efhas a few scratches. Your spear charge scratches Elf Your spear charge scratches Elf Your spear charge scratches Elf Elf's flame devastates you! You dodge Elf's attack. Your spear charge scratches Elf. Your spear charge scratches Elf. Your spear charge scratches Elf. You block Elf's attack with your weapon. You dodge Elf's attack. Your spear charge misses Elf. Your spear charge scratches Elf. Your spear charge scratches Elf. You block Elf's attack with your weapon. Elf's flame devastates you! No singing, nothing cool, no max damage :confused: (this is without sanc now) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mister E Posted January 20, 2006 Report Share Posted January 20, 2006 I reccomend mastering all stances, and dont always look for the obvious to see their benefits. Gotta think outside the box. Of course...I could be completely full of $h!t, but I think I figured out what doomsinger does. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chayesh Posted January 20, 2006 Report Share Posted January 20, 2006 I'm seeing what it appears I'm seeing in your log, there's a reason it wasn't doing what you thought it should be. I think if you experiment with it, you'll find the right combination. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mister E Posted January 20, 2006 Report Share Posted January 20, 2006 read it a ton of times...but doomsinger is for two handed weapons...it seems to work when it kicks in, ie you hit for max rolls, but when it fails you scratch, thats hwo i always saw it. i also thought it sometimes throws in an extra attack....but i think im wrong. but mines mastered and i still get a lot of scratches and grazes. and it never sings Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Acerbity Posted January 20, 2006 Report Share Posted January 20, 2006 Doomsinger and Powerstrike are totally different from eachother, and neither work with one another. From what I see, Doomsinger is an EXTENSION of powerstrike with two-handed weapons. Usually, you could only powerstrike with two, one handed weapons. But, with doomsinger, which is basically the sance 'Powerstrike' is specifically for two handed weapons. That being said, you won't ALWAYS roll for the maximum damge, but when you do, you'll be powerstriking. When you're not, you're not doing anything put tapping your opponent with your weapon. (I need to go and look further into this, now I'm beginning to wonder..) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
