Please fix this glitch. Absorb soul one of my strongest single hitting damage skills. Doesn't appear as a hit in the quest "Test your power" in 1k stream. ( At the end lets say absorb soul hit 40k and my next highest hit was 12k with natures vengeance, then it would say 12k was my highest hit.)
Therefore, Mystics wont be nearly as high on the scoreboards as they could be b:angry
I heard someone else say that it is a skill that does 0 damage and then a x amount of damage over time for one hit. I was like well that's unfair because it doesn't say that in the skill name either.
Please fix this glitch. So i can stop QQing my face off b:cry

Sincerely,
Desperate Mystic

    FYI every mystic knows that it ignores defense levels, Aegis Sphere, psy will, winged blessing, winged shell, etc. Its just one of the most talked about things on OUR forum.

    All im saying is that i have a psy too and if i use a weak soulsphere and use landslide. The DOT does more than the original hit. And that shows up at 1k stream. the damage over time is displayed as my highest hit. Therefore Mystics wood damage of 0 and absorb soul tick DOT of 200% weapon damage + xxxx should show up as their highest hit.

    Thanks I already know my class. How well do you know yours? b:victory

    Absorb soul doesn't even show up in your damage log...

    And why the hell would you use a skill that can't even crit? You can do better damage with a smart skill combo...

    With Nature's Vengeance applied you might as well say it always crits, but so does every skill when you have Lucky Streak, I guess.

    I'm just not sure which one hits harder, Absorb Soul or Weeping Breeze Dance?

    Don't forget you can actually force a crit if you got your culti all done ;)

    Why would you want to use a skill that doesn't even "crit"? BECAUSE IT'S YOUR HIGHEST HITTING SKILL MORON! Abosrb soul hits way higher than any other skill when applied with Nature's Vengeance (most times it is most times it's not depends) why it's the best when applied with Nature's Vengeance (and a really good combo that matches the skill) is because it bypasses defensive skills, you are 101 so I'd assume you knew your class, guess levels are deceiving. Mobs=Absorb is kinda on the useless side due to the channeling time, but when used with Rapid it's actually deadly, use this in PK or even PvE. Nature>Rapid>Absorb, or Spark>Nature>Rapid>Absorb. Then compare damage with any other skill using the same listed combos. Abosrb is the hands down BEST skill a Mystic has in terms of damage in terms of usefulness not so much due to the time it takes to actually cast the spell and most times. Abosrb Soul does crit. How? Well my dear it's a crit all it's own DUH! I think it doesn't show as damage due to the fact it can bypass defensive skills.

    stuff

    Well, let me put it this way: The time you take to RG + AS, I'm gonna pop a crit buff and some skills. Wonder who does more damage.

    No, you can't call that a 'crit'. THe downside I see in absorb soul is that, yes you can amplify your damage, but you simply can't crit it, which is an easy 2x.

    Not even talking about pvp...

    I do believe I already said the pros and cons of AS if not I'll do it here.

    Pros: Highest hitting skill when used in a correct combo, better used against players such as Arcanes (sometimes, depends on their build/equipment), hits through White Voodoo and other defensive skills, and is a crit of itself (doesn't actually crit but hits hard as if a crit)

    Cons: Channeling time is just too much, an inconvenience to use it, makes you an easier target, people can see it coming if you do not use insta-cast pot/Spark>Rapid and can defend it using AD or immune pot (hits through expel for all you that do not know), and a bit useless in PvE but not PvP (PvE=skill spam PvP=combos, tactics, and smarts)

    Also on venos I can RG+AS faster than you can do you combos :3 done it before and I can do it again and again. RG is fast and AS is slow, mixed together makes your combo moderate. Now Demon Spark>RG>AS=insta-cast effect.
