<DIV>Maybe its just because i havent upgraded from App1 yet but is it just me or does the "Slash DoT" from Ruin only have 1 tick? Heh. Its still a good art Id say since it does good damage and has a semi-fast timer but the DoT is practically non existent.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>PS, good post... but I would like to see a little more detailed information =) i.e. the amount of the increases, general damage rating (low / medium / high) compared to other styles. Id like to see some specific numbers but then we'd have to ask everyone for their weapon type / dmg / delay stats and thats just a pain so just highish / mediumish / lowish will do =) </DIV> <DIV>i.e.</DIV> <DIV>Bull Rush : stuns but is definitely lowish damage (app1)</DIV> <DIV>Ruin : Medium to High damage, DoT only lasts 1 tick (at app1)</DIV> <DIV>Slam : High dmg (app1) Slams definitely my highest damage dealer so far</DIV>Message Edited by Taurclax on 12-09-2004 01:14 PM
