Rapid Swing damage and animation

[Coopdad]

<DIV>When I set off the Fist of Fury (Rapid Swing) i usually get 4 damage right away... sometimes only 2.. </DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>but there is an animation associated with the swing that i can interrupt and move onto another skill</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>do i need to wait till the animation is finised to do extra damage or is it all in that very first attack??</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>Thx</DIV> <DIV>V</DIV>

<DIV>Im pretty sure the damage is accumilated way faster than the animation goes off.  So if you follow up rapid swing with say, thrust kick by the time you see the thrust kick animation all of your rapid strikes damage has been delt but since the animation takes way longer its cut short.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>Yenyang Angrydragon</DIV> <DIV>20th level Ogre Monk</DIV> <DIV>Kithcore</DIV>

<DIV>No need to wait for the animation.  Once you hit the button the damage will be dealt.  Just remember that Rapid Swings is 4 attacks, each with a chance of being blocked AND if any attack gets blocked then each subsequent attack fails as well.  So ifyou hit the button and your first attack gets blocked or misses somehow, the rest of the attacks fail as well.</DIV>
