Fade skill question

[Pichi]

I have heard from many ppl now that the skill fade gives a bonus pdr for every skill point invested when u have it active. is there some truth to this? if someone could answer this it would help alot - thanx

[skygoneblue]

Es verdad! (It's true!) :thumbsup:

[Pichi]

Es verdad! (It's true!) :thumbsup:

Y Ud? De donde es?

[BIGeyedBUG]

El es un hombre mucho loco del asilo. Ay de mi! En boca cerrada no entran moscas...

It's 1% per skill point counting +skills, by the way. (My knowledge of the game is slightly less horrible than my Spanish.)

[skygoneblue]

Me parece que sabes un poco mas que el gringo ordinario. ;)

[ilkori]

Bonjour

Oh bother, I always say the wrong thing.

[skygoneblue]

Esta bien ilkori, nos encanta a pesar de las cosas que dices. :)

[Pichi]

Ay de mi, entre en el twilight zone. Gringos que hablen espanol entendible. Solo estoy esperando que los hombres verdes empiezen a invadir. oh y LOL @ ikori
Se me olvido decir que soy de FL pero naci en nicaragua

[skygoneblue]

(chiste, chiste :) )

[Pichi]

[skygoneblue]

:lol: Yo se, solamente era un chiste.

Hay otra meimbro de estos foros que vive en FL. Se llama Lextalionis. Le conoces?

Le hablo por AIM a veces - el es muy simpatico y divertido! Sabe mucho sobre D12 tambien!

[Pichi]

Yo tambien estaba vacilando por si acaso habia un cubana por ahi por cubanos soy muy fachento y es divertido llamarlos balseros =P. pero no e hablado con ese miembro. quisas en el futuro lo conocere

[squigipapa]

uhhhh .. ok.. I understand nothing .. but have a little bit of a question. I was under the impression that the 1% pdr was per level of fade at the time of casting, not only for hard points invested. Meaning that if you casted fade @level 50 you'd max out your PDR simply from fade.

Can anyone answer this for sure. I've seen some people say it's only for invested points like a synergy, and I've also seen some (people who really know what they're talking about) saying the % of PDR is whatever level fade is cast at.

[jrichard]

It is whatever level you cast it at. It's not a synergy bonus, it's a property of the skill. So, +skills will affect it.

[Pichi]

Well from what i understd from mr bigeyed is that its from the time of casting not just hard pts

[squigipapa]

Cool, ya, that's exactly what I thought, hence my casting @ level 50 and not using any PDR equiptment. :)

[Pichi]

I JUST GoT FREE TICKETS TO SEE INCUBUS TONIGHT WOOO!!!!! ALRIGHT. sorry cant u tell im excited

[BIGeyedBUG]

Definitely at time of casting. Definitely hard points AND +skills. Bos and Venom work the same way, but don't have any hidden features to confuzzle things.

[Pichi]

Now that i know the answer to the fade question, is this better aura for a martial artist dt build.. since u dont have to waste so much for resist and dr? oh and where can i look for some guidance toward this type of build?

[ilkori]

Qual "dt build"? Aye dos de estos, pero son differente. Talon esta possible, pero Tail esta muy deficil.

[wangboBW]

wangbobw is not comprendo espagnol?

Dragon talon.. ese es el que da 6 patadas bien poderosas con botas bonitas verdad? con doble garras oh y... ICUBUS estuvo buenisimo

Alright, that's where my Spanish stops. I only had 2 years in highschool, and it's been a looong while. :( I understood most everything before your last post, then I had to use a translator, and it still didnt get "ICUBUS." So, what is the uber icubus?

Back on topic, for a Talon build you can use either BoS or Fade. Both can work, and it's simply a matter of personal preference and equipment taste. Burst of Speed will give you the most flexibility in equipment, and is generally cheaper. In addition, it usually saves on stat points.


-----------------------------
edit - an example of final equipment for a build to play through the game -

Gear for both:
Weapon*
Stormshield
Guilame's Face
Duress or Chains of Honor
Dracul's Grasp
Thundergod's Vigor or String/Verds
Upgraded Goreriders
Raven Frost
Other Jewelry*

*This equipment varies between the two. Just about any 1-h weapon can be used with Burst of Speed. The rest of your jewelry depends on resistances; I like having the Angelic ring/ammy when using Fade; but you will most likely need Mara's ammy for Burst of Speed (or a similar high resist amulet).

Mainstream weapons that can be used with fade (requiring various ias jewels or shael runes):
Beast Warspike/Zerker
Chaos Runic/Greater Talons
Kingslayer Phase Blade
Azurewrath
Silence Phase Blade
Crescent Moon Phase Blade

Incubus is a band... there would be no translation if it were spoken of in spanish.

Yep pryz is correct, its just the keyboard at my job is screwy and sometimes doesnt type the letters n or o.. lol

[ilkori]

I was wondering if it was Incubus... but then thought, naaaa, couldn't be. :scratch:

Hey even though I'm dating a Cuban chic, it doesn't mean that I understand Spanish, I do however recognize my name.

[skygoneblue]

And just because I know Spanish doesn't mean I understand Pichi either! :lol:

I basically said that there is another member of the forums who lives in FL. His name is Lextalionis, I talk to him over AIM every now and then. He is easy to get along with and knows a lot about D2 as well.

There, nothing to worry about! ;)

I wasn't worried. I just like giving you a hard time.

[skygoneblue]

Yeah well, you can always give www.freetranslation.com a hard time as well!

It might even score you some puntos with your novia. :thumbsup:
