I don't get what you said, where did someone say that magic crits? Or are you trying to say that they should be able to?

Crit runes do nothing for mages.

with a level 9 Gold Hit rune, smoulder still misses most of the targets. Its like their program to miss. he only hits 3 or 4 people. Seriously. and you know what, my opponent doesn't have any nimble rune and still dodge smoulder's attack.

[lamodomo_2092870]

mages can't counter attack. I've only seen them block attacks.

I haven't used a break runes though. but I'll tell you when I'm level 80 and see if they can preform well.

Yes a lot of people have claimed t have seen it but no one can confirm it. If the attack is blocked there should be counter attack to it. If there wasn't it could be just something with animation.
BTW I'm only talking about PvP,

[lamodomo_2092870]

yep, mages magic attacks can be block in PVP, but it rarely happens. when doing AoE with Smoulder, he only hits 2 or 3 targets. and it's not a "miss" factor but. out of Five target, three of them will be magic damage, one of it will say "miss", and another one, never is not program to hit. Thats why smoulder is so nerf so much. compare to Adamanti's "thousand strikes" it hit 4-5 times and it does skill critical damage.

[lamodomo_2092870]

hmmm I think smoulder is only good when he is paired with Adamanti, which is an OP hero.

[lamodomo_2092870]

here's what I found out. since I'm on a mage build line up. powering up smoulder is not worth it. Shayd on the other hand works better.

I know I shouldn't compare the two of them, since Smoulder is AoE and Shayde is single target. Shayd isn't reliable in hitting the targets though, she makes up for it by stunning and dealing damage IF she hits her target. Compare to Smoulder, sure he can hit 3 or 4 but mostly 3 targets. its just random and not really reliable even if he's equip with level 10 golden hit rune. he still does Miss even if the target is 1 or 2. and not really that usefull in heroic realm.

[lamodomo_2092870]

Is there any way they could make Smoulder just a LITTLE bit usefull in Heroic Realm or in PVP. really. . . . .?
