Flash - 100 Skill

edited October 2011 in Blademaster
So has anyone ever seen the 100 BM Flash skill used before? I don't think any BM on my server has it. The skill description on ecatomb makes it look like a single target attack of 100% accuracy, though I'm not sure if it's AoE or not. It seems to operate the opposite of a barb's Arma, but with the 150% base damage + 150% more damage if enemy has higher HP, does this mean it could potentially match or do better than Arma Damage or what?

I might waste 40m just to experiment cause I have nothing better to spend it on, lolz.

Post your thoughts, you math nerds and geeks.

    Almost year ago, when my server was still up, one BM used this skill on me in duel. BM had about 10k hp unbuffed, i took down 90% of his hp and we tried this. I was self buffed, w/o pdef sutra, It's damage was total ****, i can't remember right now, i think about 900-1k, non zerk, non crit. It's not even funny, rather sad.

    Well, it's based off base physical attack, as well as the max HP of the caster minus their current health.

    If you dueled a BM with like 4K HP it's probably not going to hit very hard, but if he used ToP like a barb to get 1K HP out of 25K HP it might have been different. I'm more curious of the maximum potential damage so I might be learning it lol. DPH skills could come in handy if they're AoE.

    So does anyone have any idea if the skill is AoE or not?

    It would say in the description if it was AoE or not. Like every other skill. So I don't see a use for it in PvE.

    Your not getting many replys and you say you have nothing else better to spend your cash and spirit on. So go learn it and experiment. It only takes like 10 seconds to learn it.
    AP classes are a real butt pounding...

    I doubt it hits that hard. If you had 10k base attack, it would do 15k and as long your hp is lower than opponent's, it would do 22k. 30% of that would be 6.6k against mediocre defense at that level. Divide by 4 for pvp reduction, and it only comes out to 1.6k total damage, maybe lower. Even with zerk/crit, you won't be hurting any rank 9s with it.

    I wonder which skill description is correct...

    PWI
    "Nobody has ever seen the real version of this skill because its creator is an unknown demonic blade wielder,
    however it's reputation lives. After some time, people tended to call this new powerful skill Flash, in order
    to pass the legend down to the new crop of blade users. It is said that the skill works amazingly when the user
    is in a dire situation. Deals 150% of base physical damage to the target. Also deals an
    additional 150% damage if target's health is higher than your own, this occurs after initial damage.
    One hundred percent accuracy."

    PW-MY
    "Single slash this name came from a demon swordman
    nobody remember what he is calles as, and also nobody know how he looks like.
    So, people named the strongest sword skill as Single Slash.
    Causing target to suffer 150% basic physical damage.
    When own HP is lower than selected target, in 3 seconds add 200% physical damage of the upper limit of own HP.
    Definitely hit target when attack.
    "

    PW-PH
    "This attack was invented by a Demon Swordsman. No one knows what the
    technique actually looks like, but its power is such that it is known as the
    'Invincible Blade'. The effect of the skill grows more powerful the closer to death the user is.
    Causes 150% base damage plus 150% of your Max HP less your current HP in
    Physical damage.

    What's funny is that I think there's another 4th different description in game; I recall seeing different text in game that stated that it would add 150% of the max hp - current hp of the caster. b:surrender

    I'm going to have to get home and double check.

    At least they got SOME of the description correct... Nobody has seen it before. O_O

    Yah I think one of the versions of PW that ecatomb supported is out of business now and was removed?

    The in-game description says:

    "Deals great damage to targets. Damage dealt increases depending on how bad the caster is wounded."

    Look how it says "targets" plural.

    This why I cannot tell if it's AoE or not. The ecatomb descriptions are conflicting...

    Are you sure the PWI version is the same as other versions? There's some definite difference in skill description across different versions of the game.

    It'd be funny to see this turn into the "Dharok" of pwi. It'd entertain me at least seeing BMs trying to get low hp and risking the 1.7 seconds required for the skill. The 15 min cd makes it pretty useless except in various cases even if that were true.

    'scuse my rs reference

    Lol, rs reference. We all played that aha and got max level, but charms kinda prevent staying low hp.

    Has the same damage descript as Bolt, so should work as a multiplier for any spark as well. The melee range requirement kinda makes it suck though, even as a gimmick. The least they could do is make your character appear in their underwear for a few seconds after using the skill.
