Talk:Shroud of Distress

I've verified the progression bar up to attribute level 20 10. can be removed if this is enough indication that the bar is accurate. --Delia Rashesh (talk) 19:46, 6 May 2006 (CDT)

Anyone ever thought of using this with critical eye, way of perfection, and critical defenses? all attacks against you will have a really high probability of missing you. Superman5311 22:40, December 16 2006
 * Being an avid PvE and PvP sin player, i often find that its not the attacks against you that actually destroy a sin. Its the spells and blinding and all sorts of annoying hexes and evade/block stances (that the enemy uses) that really shuts you down. I don't doubt all the skills you have mentioned, they're great but an assassin is supposed to deal tons of damage to a single target then escape, not stay there and get hit.

 * And Rangers are supposed to stay in the backline and pluck away with their arrows but you see bunny thumpers don't you? The Hobo 22:52, 30 January 2007 (CST)
 * Bunny thumping relies on certain specific builds and skills, but assassins have a much wider variety of skills to choose from and still be effective. I see your point, but I don't think it's a very valid comparison. The longer the 'sin stays in the fight, the shorter their life expectancy is. Bunny thumpers can at least rely on things like Lightning Reflexes and Whirling Defense to keep them alive. FlameoutAlchemist 10:56, 10 February 2007 (CST)
 * I wasn't trying to present a good comparison, I just felt like posting something >_> The Hobo 22:20, 13 February 2007 (CST)

This is abit overpowered now me thinks =/ P A R A S I T I C 16:03, 3 March 2007 (CST)


 * Not really. If something is below 50% health then you can caster-blast it ;p Critical Defenses, which also got a buff, is the better skill. &mdash; Skuld 16:10, 3 March 2007 (CST)


 * The one thing I really like about the last buff to this skill is the duration... makes it very easy to meet the requirements on all those "while enchanted" attacks the 'sin has (Golden Fox Strike, Golden Lotus Strike, etc)... --[[image:GEO-logo.png]] Jioruji Derako.> 06:54, 31 May 2007 (CDT)

Seems like this would mix well with Shadow Form to give you a slight chance in those "oh crap" situations. Question is, would that slight chance be worth the skills slot. --Mooseyfate 21:43, 26 July 2007 (CDT)
 * Glad you spoke of Shadow Form because I'm using this combination on heroes to HFFF, but it doesn't work at all. My D/A with 33% buff speed just keep dying with a 75% rate when R/A having the same buff speed but only supposed to dodge arow with a 65% chance have less than 10% of failure. I'm actually thinking the avoid rate is calculated only once when the skill is used. Does anyone share the same feeling ? --Mortelune 19:06, 10 July 2008 (UTC)
 * OK my bad I retried HFFF and saw where the problem was, timing changing whith my build, my hero was still in range of my radar as I give the second direction and he just kept bumping in the mobs... --Mortelune 20:05, 10 July 2008 (UTC)
