Isn't really a pierce buff, much like an everybody gets piercing's advantage buff. (everybody bloodlets, piercers only do it stronger. If you make it so everybody gets higher bloodlets, it will increase everybody's damage), but another paladin buff.

Have the bonus affect everything (DDs, pets, bowshots...), and you'll see a new group aura worth talking about.

But pallis don't really need a buff.

[Huggles]

It is a pierce buff though because the way I see it, it is applied before class and skill bonuses like Rogue and Pierce Spec, so for pierce it would have 82% more effect.

he just happened to make it grey magic which would fit his pally/enchanter perfectly

[Hoodrat]

omg make it 2H weapon only so 1H piercers not dominate piercer playing field !!

This would also help melee characters as well as not increase tank DPS since that is not the job of a tank !!!!

OMG 36.4% bonus for paladin enchanter, giving you an OP extra 40.92 min damage...

Also, makes sense that Iron aura would be Grey.

[Smashbros]

a few tweaks on this, and it would be nice.

id say lower the levels needed, so that its like 89 at lvl 5, increase the cost to upkeep the gem.

keep the numbers as they are, for 2h, and half them for 1h.

as a 1h, you have 2 of them, this would increase both of them, which would then give the same bonus, with both the weapons.

would also like to point out, that this, with a rank 5, would add on ~60 min damage per non crit swing for me.

so yes, i support lol.

[Huggles]

Ah right, I forgot about 1H vs 2H and crit vs noncrit. I'll do some fixing. actually nvm since 2h has 100% chance to bloodlet to counteract the 2v1 hit.

yes, but so does the 1h pierce, hence the suggestion.

[chloe]

isnt their a rune of this? so making this is almost pointless if there is a rune that does the same job. just use the rune.

its the answer i got told when i wanted mana/energy theft for bow users...

[Huggles]

The rune is crap since it's 6.5m a month for 5 min damage, and iirc glitch said that's added after all classes and skills because it's a rune.

[chloe]

its 5 min damage per hit, after 20 hits or so in pit, thats a increase of 100 min damage

[Huggles]

omg 100 dmg vs a pit mob! OP!

[chloe]

vs any mob, its still better than an aura that does 30..........

you have a rune that will increse it by 5 every hit, which greatly benefits 1h piercer, more to an extent of a crappy aura that will increase by a solid 30.

if 1h pierce need a buff so badly that they take alot of hits to kill a mob the rune is ideal, and much more benefitial to a crappy +30. in a pit fight as a 1h user you may even hit max damage every hit by the end

1stly, your an idiot. the rune is 5 min damage, not added 5 onto every hit. its a perma 5 increase. so after 20 hits, its still a increase of 5 on min damage.

2ndly, that rune states 5, increases more, as its applied before skills.

tjis aura, also, would be applied before skills.

now, im not sure here, but please tell me if im wrong, but 30 is more then 5 isnt it?!?!?!

(for pkp, interrobang)

this aura, would apply a well needed buff to pierce, if with the modded suggestions for 2h v 1h, it would actually be the nice buff for 2h pierce thats needed to compete with other classes.

interrobang.


anyway i support this i like the idea

[chloe]

ok, the rune adds 5 every attack, so it will add 5 +5+5+5+5+5 after 6 hits which = a minimum damage increase of 30, where as the aura here would add a base 30 and stop, as auras do not stack.

the rune starts lower yes, but has the potential to make it so you hit max amount in long fights.


unless i am being mislead by incorrect wording

as 1 of the only users of the rune, no it doesnt.

it adds 5 min damage to your attack.

it dont stack, it just adds 5.

you do 100 attacks, its still at 5.

[chloe]

then why does it say it adds 5 minimum damage with every attack?

[Smashbros]

because it adds it to the attack....

yes ive tested it since you said this, and yes, your wrong.

its a steady increase of the amount stated, before skills effect it, which increases it alot for me, as im almost at max amount of bloodlet i can be at, just a couple more skills.

and yes, this aura, as an epic ofc, would work as an awesome pierce buff, and would satisfy me very well
