Celtic Heroes

from reading other posts, i have a good idea how other skills move up as you put points into them.

does anyone have any insight into rend. i am thinking of rebirthing soon cause i dont use hide much. i am thinking about putting points into rend, but would like to know what kind of damage i am looking at once i get 10, 15, 20 points into it.

having played a ranger, i was never impressed with barbed shot - the amount of extra damage from the barbs tended to be the equivalent of a single shot - so just the casting time made it unlikely i would use it.

i would love if ppl posted their rend dmg and how much skill points they have in it so i can get an idea. if a 20 point rend does 100 points of continuing dmg (not the initial dmg), that is much different than if it does 30-40. after reading about poisen weapon doing only 30-40 with a lot of skill points into it, i decided that is not really the way i want to go.

i know play dead is a point sink, so only useful if i put a lot into it. how much needs to go into smokey to make it useful (noticably)


thanks

rend at 30/30 has a stat damage of 194 per tic

personally i love it, and use it all the time (most helpful on bosses)

wow, better than i expected. Thanks for the replies. Given my style of play, i think i will give it a try next time i Alter.

thx!
