It's unusual, that's for sure. Might have some potential with CoC (big surprise there lol) but going crit selfcast doesn't seem like a good choice. 8 casts with spell echo and not rolling crit really brings your efficiency down. So either noncrit or totems? IGN: NNQQ, Sporkay, Rands_ Last edited by kolton on Oct 22, 2014, 10:46:07 PM	Posted by kolton on Oct 22, 2014, 10:45:42 PM Quote this Post

That's not going to make any appreciable difference. (edit: also mutliple hits suffer less from highly variable Damage) Last edited by Vipermagi on Oct 22, 2014, 11:29:49 PM	Posted by Vipermagi on Oct 22, 2014, 11:24:34 PM Valued Poster Quote this Post

The casting animation reminds me of Adventure Time. Devolving Wilds Land “T, Sacrifice Devolving Wilds: Search your library for a basic land card and reveal it. Then shuffle your library.”	Posted by CanHasPants on Oct 23, 2014, 12:02:46 AM Quote this Post
" Boem wrote: My main gripe with both skills, they trigger and either crit or not. The herald of thunder, either it crits for 1 second straight or it doesn't, instead of rolling for a crit per actual lightning strike. (power charge on crit for example is uselles because of this) Same with tendrils, you either crit for the 4 hit's or you don't. And here i was hoping to put my Pcoc on my herald of thunder to feed me power charges while i run around.... Peace, -Boem- (i have the same gripe with all the vaal skills, either roll crit for its duration or not, instead of rolling for it every half a second) It work that way with a lot of things,cyclone is same and it feels unnatural to me but I think it's to do with server load,less information to send back and forth.
