chill out. they've been announcing for a long while now that the hope/plan is for next patch to be the first sigma 1.0 release. give the testers and devs time to work out kinks. it's not even been three months since the last reset yet.

it should work, tho if you recently changed your TSW password it may take some time (up to 1h) to reflect that changed - try it later

Hi, I have some question.
1. Does "ctc stormblast on melee attack" proc triggered by amazon pounce?
2. What the difference between "on melee attack" vs "on attack"?
3. If my spear have "slows target by" affix, does pounce will slow all enemy inside AoE?
4. Should I go resist or def in teganze(umbaru spirit)?

Thanks.

1. no . pounce is not triggering "on melee attack" because it is not a melee attack . it's a jump
2. they are the same thing

3. yes
4 . killspeed above all imo . if you're playing a squishy assassin , keep moving and pray to avoid the incoming damage

So shaad into amazon spear(Freybug) is not really strong then?
Edit: Pounce not categorized as melee attack? I see pounce animation are exactly the same as normal attack... with a little teleport. But the animation is still the same.
From the docs

A melee hit occurs when you swing your weapon at something and that something takes weapon-based damage. This does not include any weapon-based missiles or splash damage (eg. Crucify spikes, Retaliate nova) that may be emitted from the target.

Edit:Just checked the skill desc, it say "warp strike" hahaha

Thank you.

sadly no , that RW is not that strong , besides having access to Wolf Stance , it's kinda crapy for a pouncezon .

pounce triggers "on striking" and "after kill" . does not trigger "on attack"

Got it, sir. Thank you.
