Post by NOMADMAN »

In the game, the skill description as I hover over "Ice Storm" and "Fire Vortex" are both decrease attack of monster while the skill description of "Lightning Storm" is decrease opponent's hp.

But I saw this post by player maximus:

I noticed that in game both description for "Ice Storm" and "Fire Vortex" are the same. This makes me curious if the skill descriptions posted by maximus are correct. If so, "Ice Storm" will be very powerful. It will become a ranged "Freeze" skill of warrior! :yahoo: Can anyone enlighten me please?

I can't say that I am not a little disappointed with Ice Storm and Lightning Storm skills. :( Not only that they have only 5 range, they have a cool down so long that I have to use 3 more attacks before I am able to use them again... Most importantly, their range. I cannot use them to hunt creeps because of range 5. I have to stick with range 7 Fury of Thor. Even with long cool down I can still use them in rotation but their short range limits their usage for me.

By the way, shouldn't attack skills have no cooldown? :-? Do other classes' unique skills have cool down as well?

Quote from GM Blade on November 11, 2017's Gameplay Update:
Skill cooldowns are applicable to all the ability skills and they don't apply to skills that you would use to hunt.
