Is frenzy broken? I am using it with Warrior as my secondary profession but am not taking any extra damage. Anyone else noticed this?

Advantages are not funny. Frenzy is supposed to work as it stated in the description. You don't want people to rage-quit on you, because you are abusing a bug, do you?

well for me if i saw that frenzy wasn't making me recieve more damage i wouldn't mind. Ill be happy. Let anet find out when ever and they can fix it. Till then ill take advantage. Lots of people do it when there are glitches in the game. It's not the players fault, it's anets, so why shouldn't the player take advantage of it?

I was using Frenzy yesterday and I was taking extra damage.

Maybe you were hit with a life-stealing spell? (These don't do extra damage).

It's like when cyclone axe didn't have a recharge time o.o

Many, many warriors refused to update their client.

Too bad frenzy can't be abused like crazy, huh?

Yes I have prot spirit on my, but the damage is below the level required to be affected by that spell due to health level. Like 30 damage at 600 health.

my frenzied assassin took about 170 dmg from a executionters strike, so, frenzy still works.

If ur in high level areas using frenzy, then I dont have a clue, but if ur doing this in pre searing or the noobie island, then thats ur answer. All I know is frenzy isnt and will never be bugged.

Not that I dont appreciate your help, but unless you do some experimenting with both frenzied and non frenzied over zeveral hits then its no good. Your 170 hit proves nothing.

Here expirementing for you.

My warrior at 16 AM hits an assassin for 85-90dmg always. 85 x 2 = 170.

If you want proof: I went outside Gates of Kryta with my warrior and let the Mergoyle Wavebreaker cast Deep Freeze on me. I got hit for 19 damage without frenzy, after using frenzy I received 38 damage.

Hi

Thing is, the flipside to this is that if someone else uses frenzy you wont do extra damage to them (just as an example)

SO in many ways it doesnt help you that the skill is not working as said (and it probably helps you less, because youll get players taht dont know how to cancel it.

Actually, based on general game mechanics....

the maximum a warrior with executioners (with a critical) could do on a non-frenzied assassin would be somewhere around 115 (depending on various things like the armor used, inherent damage mod on weapon, etc.).

I also tested on a fast-made PvP warrior (no runes, etc.)
Lightning Orb from Master of Lightning normally: 72
with Frenzy: 144

Frenzy still works.

OP said warrior as secondary profession. Seems to work normally for warrior as primary, anybody else want to test to see if it works correctly as secondary?

Wow. Random claims of "this is broken" without any sort of testing whatsoever. Closed.
