  No, its two hits for double clicking IF the weapon has normal or higher attack speed, doesn't matter whether or not you're dual wielding. It just makes dual wielding more top tier because dual Celtic Royal Knight Swords give +10% Bash damage.

  Wait, wasn't that still in the "unclear mechanics, not sure if bug" territory?

  That was an initial assumption during testing. It clearly got out of test server and still exists so it's pretty much 99% chance intended. Who knows, the description/hint details might allude to the second hit.

  Well they certainly made the training grounds easier that's for sure.
  
  Me and Teto actually made it to the boss this time in a little over an hour. There's 4 floors, 4 rooms each. First 2 floors is 1 spawn each, 2nd two floors is 2 spawns each and sometimes you can get freebie rooms where nothing spawns and you just get chests you can open for loot. Also prize for each floor clear which is mostly potions and sometimes repair kits.
  
  Unfortunately the golem beat us to a pulp, we didn't stand a chance xD.
  
  Update: We were wondering what the hair colors mean on the golem and I think I just figured it out :skip:
  
  Realized it after looking back on the clips I recorded of our fight with the golem. When his hair was red he was using melee attacks but when his hair was green he was using ranged attacks.
  
  Thus pending on the hair color he has will determine which skills he'll focus on using.
  
  Update 2: We looked up some things based on something me and Teto got when running Alban and getting a random freebie room.

  Apparently these are new and come in Gold, Silver, and Copper. Gold coin is 100k, Silver is 10k, and Copper is 1k.
  
  According to Kapra, these are new.

  You get the money form selling them to an NPC, not just right click using them, by the way.

  I made a suggestion thread similar to this but many people are against this because they don't want all races to basically be same.

  
  THat's the thing, don't make races so similar that they're barely different. Either completely remove races altogether, which is what I want- Or make races completely different. Make every race have something unique and make every race useful at all stages of gameplay (not just endgame and not just early game), and give each race something special and not just carbon copies of things they already have or things that are almost identical to other races. A shorter magnum cooldown won't do it.
  
  Makes races more unique or remove races please. Don't just make them near identical.
  
  
  That being said. I don't trust DevCAT to make races more unique. I don't trust DevCAT to properly merge races (like how I described in the thread in my signature). And I do think leaving things the way it is now is worse and it is worth risking.

  I'm curious about the Lightning Rod change. I'll look into package changes later but right now I'm busy.\

  Guessing nothing was found?

  Didn't notice anything about Lightning Rod.

  While on the subject... What exactly are those values for for Bash? I'm not really sure what the after-delay thing is for Rage Impact... is it a long start-up like Berserk or something?
• Rydian wrote on 2015-04-12 21:15
  Maybe it's referring to an after-use delay?
  Like how you can't move or do anything for a second after using Blaze despite not being in any animation.

  1. Added an effect when you charge Lighting Rod to full guage.

  
  
  Err... By "effect" I'm assuming it's a visual indicator? Otherwise, no one has any idea what this is?

  I can do a more concrete example when I get home in gif format. But I have dinner tonight so probably won't be until real late that I get to it.

  So many mmo games have ninja... I think its stupid they feel so strongly about ninja talent...
  Maybe theres something I'm missing?

  any videos of the new bash's damage in action at r1?

  I don't understand why they didn't add a bash enhancement to any of the one-handed blunt weapons. First off, it makes more sense that blunt weapons would be better at bashing faces in than swords. Second, shouldn't this idea of buffing dual wield extend to dual blunts? This all seems a little half-assed.

  Bash set effect was intended to benefit Human melee. Giant melee already has all of the other advantages.

  Well excuse me, I was under the impression the goal of the renovation was to ultimately give people an incentive to pick close combat (dual wield especially) over lances, and not be about the issue of giant advantages versus humans. I wasn't aware you worked with the devs and they shared their intentions with you. My bad.
