Wizard Charged Wind

DESOUL · Post by **DESOUL** » Thu Jan 10, 2008 10:11 pm

Hm i've read about charged wind being useful just cause of his knockback 6 times with 80% but! even though the description says it has 6 hits/knockbacks mine does only 2 , or does it have to be higher level to do more? If not then skill rendered useless and deleted >.<

it doesnt have a pattern, its just random lol, pure luck just like kd

i think the most I have ever got is 4 and I use it all the time since it cancels the other persons attack, its probly a mess up of Joymax, just like the blader skill that I heard a while back where you could only get 2 stabs in after the KD instead of 3.

In other words its pretty much useless atm, hope they fix it to a rough 6 hits soon

6 times is the maximum shot that spell does in the condition that none shot will KB the opponent. But once he got KB, the shots after stop. The purpose of this skill is to KB, not to dmg

I've got up to 6 hits, it's totally random and all wizards should have this skill o_0 it's alot better then people think it's not going to 1 hit anyone but it does so much more, I use charge wind just as many times as I use metero on my warlock/wizard.

It can only knockback twice.. after that the attack stops.

I think it is 6 hits IF the target is not knocked back. If he gets knock back in 1st hit, then only 2 hits. Not sure if that is true.

I'll have to desagree, in the discription it says 6 knockbacks and it usualy does 2 KB's but i've got it only lv2 so i tought maybe the higher the lvl the more it does?

And the knockbacks are short , so if it'd do only 1 then the skill would of been useless since it doesn't compensate for the time lost for its cast, teleporting back would of been alot more effective than using this spell then.

its 2-6 usually 2 and sometimes 3-4 and never 5 XD.

if you get 4-6 u will kill someone instead of just kb them.

You joking? It has a 41% multiplier while Fire bolt has 366%, 41x6=246% wich is weaker than a ice bolt (271%) in PvP might kill some n00b, but in PvE i doubt.

So what?
It says "Maximum successive shot" and not only "successive shot"
U'll notice that everytime u encounter a KB, it will stop your shot following.

ive seen ppl die to this spell who were 70+ and it takes down monsters like butter.

sama98b · Post by **sama98b** » Fri Jan 11, 2008 2:10 am

Most ppl look the 41% and miss it that it can hit 6 times

torinchibi · Post by **torinchibi** » Fri Jan 11, 2008 2:21 am

If it actually hit 6 times every time, that's 240% of dmg on top of KB, so it would have made it awesome...it would do like 8-10k on pure str if you use life turnover at level 80. Too bad it usually hits no more than 4 times. I don't remember seeing it 5 let alone 6 times ever. Then again, I don't grind with it, so it's not like I get a lot of chances to see it hit 6 times.

GodsAngel · Post by **GodsAngel** » Fri Jan 11, 2008 5:25 am

I've fought a lot of wizards, mainly my guildies and I've seen them party play and I've had a wizard myself.

torinchibi is right, it almost never hits for the full 6, but it's dead useful and a must have for any wizard.

course, it doesn't do much in pvp against a warrior's little zip zip. annoying sprint assault ftw!

This skill is perfect for any wizard... doesnt matter how many times the enemy get KB, it´s enough for you to cast a third spell.
Like: Fireball, charged wind another fireball ... so... wizz are not only 1-shooter... can be 3-shooter

And to see this skill getting 6 times on a monster, cast it on a "flower" type... hehehe.. they don´t KB and get all dmg ... ok.. not so usefull... but.. u get your full 6 times.
