Are most oskills just rubbish or do you have to build for them specifically.

For example,

Herfjotur

Herfjotur
Amazon Javelins
'BerOrt'
Runeword Level: 78
Ring Of Flames Gains +1% Total Damage per Character Level
5% Chance to cast level 1 Timefield on Kill
2% Chance to cast level 19 Ring of Flames on Striking
+(1 to 2) to Amazon Skill Levels
+(60 to 80) to Maximum Damage
+(15 to 20)% to Fire Spell Damage
-(25 to 30)% to Enemy Fire Resistance
+(141 to 171)% Enhanced Damage
(3 to 5)% Chance of Crushing Blow
Slow Target 25%
+(40 to 60) to Energy
Lightning Resist +30%

, Maelstrom. It's 25% of weapon damage and it does a good job chipping away at the enemy, albeit very slowly. I noticed that in older guides there were a few builds which are based on oskills, but looking at most of them which are 25% of weapon damage... I can't feel very optimistic.

Is it just a gap in my knowledge or were oskills nerfed significantly between then and now? I'm just 2+ weeks into the game.

Yea most aren't that good, specially wdm options are rarely good, here's some good ones i remember:

[Solfege]

Yes.

Is there an issue with godfather deadly strike and d2 stats not reading it?

[Lippy58]

I think my game is bugged. Today, when I disenchant my Set pieces the signets are going into my inventory at zero value. I can click them infinitely but do not gain the stat.

Edit: Im apparently capped with SoL...didnt know it was 400. Can I trade these signets to other characters with their full value? Or are they now just junk?

[Gloum]

Why is assur's bane considered so good?

?

I believe DeadlyStrike tops out at showing only 75max in D2stats, but it applies properly in-game, if thats what ur referring to.
(or at least it used to, anyway-- the weap's been modified in this latest ver.)

ALSO,
If youre equipping it on your Merc, D2stats (or maybe the game engine) can sometimes get mixed-up depending on your order of equipping.
try equipping the sword last, then check if it shows in D2stats.
If you equip something else after the sword, DeadlyStrike sometimes disappears until you re-equip the sword very last....
(i dont think this has been reported yet as a bug, but it def happens.)
