Hi,

suggestion: Bloodbath ctc% of Shadowdancer.

The Idea is making bloodbath almost a passive. To prevent spellcasters and non-dual-claw builds from abusing this it has to go as follows:
Add a 100% chance to Shadow Dancer (passive) to cast Bloodbath. Because bloodbath only works with dualclaws, that passive will too.

Background: Having to attack first in order to gain the much needed blockchance always disturbed me. The problem is the small duration and that there are many mechanics in the game where you can't constantly attack. And when you can attack - YOU WANT TO DEAL DAMGE! (Immunity Shields anyone? :flip: ) Also unless you really cranked up Shadow Dancer, the duration is super short, thusly you will often find yourself without blockchance..

So you will still need to attack, but can at the same time already charge up Batstrike or use Noctule to DEAL DAMAGE WHEN YOU HAVE THE CHANCE - JUST LIKE EVERY OTHER BUILD - balance please. (And yes I know it's just one hit, still takes time and timing on a online server...)

p.s.: I also played the Melee Paladin and Barbarian, and they are no comparison, they actually work out well. It's not compareable with asn hassle, imo.

since you use 2 claws instead of weapon + shield , it is normal not to gain block unless you attack wth those dual claws (since when it is normal to benefit from block if not using a shield ? ). also , the bloodbath duration can be increased a lot with proper gear , to more than 25 seconds .

i'd say learn to play instead of asking for balances that are obviously not required

make it a passive plx !

What learn to play? a hack'n slay? what do you want to learn to play? it's fuckin easy.. Bitch please.


Oh yea get XY equip AR that boosts Duration by 200% doesn't make it better from a general poitn of view - when you don't have that gear, DUH? what a bad argument.
Also you completely ignored the fact that there are monsters hitting you when you can't hit and then you do not have any block. Doesn't seem you play the game, ONLY WITH YOUR SP GEAR, please shut up it's not about perfect gear here! You're the same Trash like people in Diablo 3 that came with their pay2win arguments from auction house about leech being good, lol - when it was released, so annoying, so bored? Lurk the forums!, oh yea you rock, grats. And now shut up.

About your 2 claws not normal argument - Since you are not using a shield your defense is pretty crappy, you are required to have some form of extra defense, here block, so NO it's not normal, to not have a form of defense. Every other character DOES have a form of defense... To make up for it you need big investions into Dexterity..

Also ignore that I didn't say passive but actually proc on melee hit, Quite difference.

'learn to play' expression is just wrong one to use anyway no matter what. :facepalm: only pipendrusu can say that and only if reffering to his guides.

The real problem is that stuff like bloodlust is good for all builds. But bloodpath is useless for most builds. It should be the other way around, useful for most builds but useless for one.

So you want... the dual claw bloodbath skill to be useful to all classes, but useless to one?
