Lv2 Distortion Skill Chain Using Disseverment Lv72 spell

[JeanRC]

Ok this is a solo skill chain by my blu 73 using
savage blade then sata Disseverment spell.
1171 disseverment spell + 702 Skillchain effect.
Cant remember how much savage blade do.
but usually is abt 80-350.

Disseverment is a good spell like death scissor.
but more tp dont help to boost the damage a lot unlike death scissor.
Its better then death scissor when you use sata without using chain ability and any tp. better = more damage. sata +death do abt 300-500+ damage without using tp, and sata + disseverment do like 400-800+. It may be due to my new level that boost more str now that make this happen since i did not try more death scissor after i get disseverment. I will test more and see what happen and will update here.

The thing with Disseverment is I think its a 5-hit WS? From everything I've heard that would give the mob 50% TP if all hits land (10% per hit) so on things like flies that could be pretty bad. On other things though it wouldn't be a big deal.

Still that's pretty cool :D I did know about that one and have it on the chart but haven't gotten to use it yet And I'm at 239 Sword, 1 away from Savage Blade

The mob version of disseverment also inflicts a strong poison, 20ish hp/tick iirc. Would be interesting to see if the blu version is as good.
I know a spell gives 10tp, but I doubt that means a 5-hit spell gives 50tp.

According to this post by Armando, 3-hit Bludgeon has been confirmed to give the mob 30% tp, so it's likely that 5-hit blue magic gives 50% tp.

Interestingly, he posts about Feather Storm a bit, which I believe is a 3-hit ranged skill, isn't it? I would assume that it gives 30% TP as well, but maybe not.

If you're soloing, its very easy to tell, just from how often mobs use their WS's, that Bludgeon (and other multihit WS's, particularly Frenetic Rip from personal experience, also 3-hit) gives significantly more TP than other spells. Keep this in mind when fighting things like..oh...Erucas in new areas. Your tank will be none too happy if you're spamming 3-hit spells and feeding it enough TP to burn down a village.

On the other hand, Bludgeon is an -excellent- tool for learning spells, especially on things like Imps or Qutrubs - as soon as their horn/sword breaks, spam Bludgeon like a madman and pray it uses the move you want, it definitely makes a big difference. I was using this technique last night in fact on Lamias to get Hysteric Barrage, they were being a pain in the ass using the skill even after we broke their weapon, and at around 15% I started spamming Bludgeon - much to my tanks chagrin, but it did the trick, went 0/3 with all 3 Lamia I fought using H. Barrage.

Tangenting is fun

Actually, Feather Storm is single hit, it's just that the animation shows multiple feathers (hence the name.)

BLU version of Disseverment also gives 20/hp a tic poison. It lasts for roughly 100 tics, applying an extra 2000 damage on top of the original move itself.
