Talk:Reaper's Sweep

is it just me, or does this look like a really good skill? AoE deep wound for 5 en, plus a lot of extra dmg... ~Avatarian 86 14:24, 26 September 2006 (CDT)


 * Seems like a dervish version of Eviscerate. Assassinman 02:20, 28 September 2006 (CDT)

It's good, but compared to Wounding Strike... Arshay Duskbrow 02:36, 28 September 2006 (CDT)

Well, why not combine them? Then it could be a sever artery+gash combo for dervishes. Assassinman 14:46, 29 September 2006 (CDT)

Because they're both Elites, possibly? :P Arshay Duskbrow 15:42, 29 September 2006 (CDT)

Don't remember seeing wounding strike as an elite before...oh well. Still, the extra damage combined with the deep wound is worth it. Assassinman 18:05, 29 September 2006 (CDT)

Apparantly it wasn't one during the PvP event (which was when the icon was captured), but it now is as of the PvE preview. Which is as it should be, it's a very powerful skill. Arshay Duskbrow 18:51, 29 September 2006 (CDT)

Is this really multi-deep wounding? It seems like it would only affect the target, not any random shmuck standing around that gets hit. &mdash;Aranth 05:03, 15 October 2006 (CDT)

I dont know, Wounding Strike says "Your target suffers", but this only says "If your target has less than 50% health"... hmmm 207.81.78.84 17:39, 24 October 2006 (CDT)

Why's Wounding Strike better..? It doesn't give any damage bonus, so for spiking purposes... --Silk Weaker 03:01, 5 November 2006 (CST)
 * Well, Wounding Strike can give a deep wound as soon as the battle starts(well, as long as you have an enchantment up) and is spammable(so good for keeping pressure up, at least in PvP, not so important in PvE). That said, as a PvE player, I still prefer this attack. DKS01 21:37, 7 December 2006 (CST)

There is no multi-deep wounding on either of them. It's just against the target. ~ Nilles (chat) 06:28, 5 November 2006 (CST)

Tested on IW. Untrue, AoE Deepwound. --203.218.56.93 06:29, 19 November 2006 (CST)
 * Aren't all scythe attacks automatically AoE? I just tested on the Isle of the Nameless, and the deep wound DOES spread to all foes hit that are under 50%. --Macros 21:19, 12 January 2007 (CST)

Is that Mr. Grenth cleaning the Underworld with a broom? -- S i  g  m  A   14:03, 28 January 2007 (CST)
 * Looks like Mr Grenth is standing in a River of Souls to me. With a scythe. Perhaps he's reaping them ;) 82.17.103.240 11:12, 18 February 2007 (CST)

To me this skill is great. It's the dervish counterpart to decapitate but without the horrifying side effects. Love this skill.--Zyc 15:06, 28 February 2007 (CST)
 * I'd say the dervish counterpart to Eviscerate myself. Damage falls in between the 2 attacks, but like Eviscerate and unlike Decap, this one isn't a guaranteed critical hit. Still nice though. DKS01 01:48, 1 March 2007 (CST)

Like all Scythe attacks it hits up to 3 targets if theyre in front of you, the effect should apply on each target individually, what I wonder is this though, does the deep wound effect apply only if the target is under 50% when you use the attack or if its enough that the attack itself brings the target below 50%? --Konzetsu 01:55, 26 March 2007 (CDT)
 * The condition for the deep wound is that hit foe is under 50% health before the hit. This condition is checked for every foe. 195.68.73.197
