Talk:Ride the Lightning

"Ride the lightning" is an album and song from the band Metallica. Sounds like another egg to me. \m/ -_- \m/-Only a Shadow

Hmm RtL+Gale+echoed aftershock spike ^^ Skuld  09:13, 14 April 2006 (CDT)


 * How would you get the Arcane Echo on the Aftershock in the first place? Or is Gale's knockdown long enough to pull it off? --130.58 10:22, 14 April 2006 (CDT)


 * That would definatly be possible with a Me/E but I think exauhstion would set in pretty quick-OaS

Bug is intended
I don't think the teleport bug is actually a bug. I think it is intended to act like that cos it happens to all teleporatation skills in Assassin. 61.6.254.71 07:18, 5 May 2006 (CDT)


 * However, it doesn't happen on Consume Corpse and Necrotic Traversal. Or, at least, it didn't use to -- need to verify if it's still so. &mdash; Stabber &#x270d; 07:19, 5 May 2006 (CDT)


 * If it is intended behavior, then we should documented also. Though I don;t think it is and I don't think it even makes sense to have that by design. You can teleport while holding a staff but not while holding an urn? It has serious consequences in PvE and PvP if you drop the flag or the supplies or the Urn of Saint Vektor. So, it should be noted. I'll remove the word "bug" if that is the issue. --Karlos 07:38, 5 May 2006 (CDT)


 * I actually think that urn dropping on shadow steps is a good thing. Makes for nice bomb-and-run builds, as hinted at in the Ritualist Assassin page. &mdash; Stabber &#x270d; 07:49, 5 May 2006 (CDT)


 * I think that it would be a bit overpowered if you could teleport or shadow step with the flag or an urn. I can think of a few nice uses for GvG if that would be possible. --Gem [[Image:Gem-icon-sm.png]] 08:46, 5 May 2006 (CDT)


 * There is a big difference between a bundle & a staff, a bundle actually takes up two hands, while a staff only requires two hands to attacks. Seeing you're not attacking while you teleport this is perfectly valid --Jamie 09:13, 5 May 2006 (CDT)

Teleport yes or no?
Has anyone tested this already? There are currently two notes on this, that seem mutually exclusive: Has anyone tested this already and can confirm either way? --- Barek (talk • contribs) - 19:53, 14 June 2006 (CDT)
 * This skill is not true teleporting, it works similarly as many skills that use shadow stepping.
 * This, like shadow stepping and certain necromancer skills that allows you to teleport to a corpse's location, can be used to "teleport" across an obstacle, such as a wall. This is assuming that a reacheable enemy is on the other side.
 * I tried doing the bonus prematurely on Dune of Despair using this skill, but it acts like shadow stepping. It will not teleport you to an otherwise inaccessible area like some necro skills do. --Thervold 20:47, 15 June 2006 (CDT)
 * It's not really mutually exclusive, it means you can go through a wall, and as long as you, the wall, and your destination form a straight line, you'd be going through a wall, but the destination is still accesible. Of course, I haven't tried either yet, so I wouldn't know whether it's tele or not. Silk Weaker 09:15, 29 June 2006 (CDT)
