Crushing blow with blade fury in pvp

[Smite Muffin]

Hi, i was thinking about using blade fury in some pvp battles soley for crushing blow. But i heard that crushing blow with ranged weapons were nerfed. Would blade fury fall under the catagory of ranged weapons and have crushing blow nerfed or does it still do the same amount as cb with melee

And cb does 1/12 of the persons help with pvp correct?

Thanks in advance :smiley:

Hmmm, thanks inane but i need more confirmation with this. Brokensvt said that cb isnt nerfed with blade fury =/

[inanefedaykin]

Well, it would depend on whether or not blade fury counts as ranged or melee.

[RTB]

Blade Fury counts as ranged AFAIK.

[inanefedaykin]

I can't see any reason it would be counted as melee by the game but someone is saying it is so...

Do you actually expect to hit people in pvp with blade fury?
Sure the skill has some uses in pvp but its not something I would recommend building around.. slow + bad ar + makes you a sitting target. =\

[Smite Muffin]

Actually, yes i do :smiley:
Although i only need it for the cb, so thats why im asking =/

Heh, I had a pure bf sin once. It sucked, but I had some of the most fun duels I've ever had with it. Nothin more fun than hitting an hdin with blade fury, and just knockin him back 2 oblivion. Ahh, good times. You need hecka ar for it though. I used a fools mod eth rare for mine. Since it doesn't cost durability, you don't need to use any zods, or have repair dura mod. Ahh, good times.

Angelics should take care of the AR easily enough but if you really need it you can always get charms.

[Smite Muffin]

its used for a lvl 18 so im not worrying about ar too much.

Still i need some confirmation about this from assassin players before i sink some points into traps

[inanefedaykin]

Well, cloak of shadows should as well.

Oh, good idea inane, i could really use that for my hybrid...why didn't i think of that? XD
