Hundred Blades
Therran Cloudhart
I'm planning on capping this skill in the end, I know who it is and I won't say for the sake of spoilers, what I want to know is, is this skill good? My elite now is Glad's Defense but that dosen't work for me, so is this a good skill to cap?
imaginary friend
its a very good elite... nice for quick adrenaline charges, and doing lots of damage to enemies
Sir Edri
It is a very good elite sword attack. Very good adrenaline builder. With 2-3 enemies infront, one swipe, and my adrenal skills are all ready to be unloaded. Like what Imaginary Friend said, it does alot of damage to enemies, it's hitting them twice in one shot.

Thanks!

It's worth getting if you're going with a sword-based build. It's the fastest adrenelin generator, and it hits hard once you get 12+ sword skill.

Hundred Blades = The reason why I can sword farm instead of axe farm when I feel the urge. I suggest, yes, to cap this. Infact; I suggest capping every elite possible. Elite hunting adds on to gameplay imho; It allows for more after the game is done or if one wants a power boost.

its good skill but i'm still wondering if it beats cyclone, i guess both have thier moments but making it an elite doesnt seem right, escpecialy scince you cap it in the last misson and if you dont PvP and dont like repeating missons or farming or getting elites then, like getting the best car in the last race in many racing games, your getting a good skill at the end of the game

arnity pointed two things at once:
1- what the hell! swords are the most favourite weapons in the game but only one elite? and not only that, but also we get it as the game ends
2- if you equip cyclone axe instead of hundred blades, you can equip an another elite.
in anyways hundred blades is good.

Psh for pvp no hundred blades only has specific uses. Such as with Order stackings+conjures+SoH it is good but other than that and some decent adrenaline it sucks. Really in the metagame it sucks compared to eviscerate and some other skills.
PvE might as well tank and use cyclone axe it recharges twice as fast.

Hundred blades works with vamp mod and other health gain upon hit. you can gain LARGE amounts of health at one time.
boxterduke
Its a very nice skill and since you are doing the mission anyway then you might as well cap it. Much better than needing it later and having to go thru the mission again.
entropy
so you gain 6 life with a perfect vamp mod or maybe 18 max... a lot of health. I said with orders its pretty nice but really.

actually if theres only 1 or 2 enemies, hundres blades will generate twice as much adrenaline as cyclone And do quite a bit more dmg, but again thats pretty trivial as we are comparing an elite with a regular peasant skills.

100 blades doesn't seems like to much of an elite to me but I really like Gladiator Defence it is one elite I use more often.

In the Islands, last mission, take a good shield...
Godd luck!
PS: I have it and it works nicely

Just to clarify, hundred blades actually hits twice? EX: 2 enemies in front of you, you use HD, and gain 4 strikes of adrenaline? If this is the case, rather than 2 adrenaline, I guess it's almost as good as cyclone axe. 
Racthoh
Players will argue that Cyclone Axe is better because it hits all the enemies around you. Well yes, but Hundred Blades can do this just as well if not better in every situation.
Suppose we have this situation, you're attacking an elementalist enemy with two warrior enemies behind you. Cyclone Axe hits them all, yes. However, by moving around to the back of the elementalist enemy you can position the two warrior enemies beside the elementalist to snag all three. It's simply a matter of taking a few steps to optimize the skill.

Yes, that's acurate. If you have one enemy in front of you, you hit that enemy twice. So, even one-on-one, you get some adrenilen boostage.

Ah, okay. And Racthoh, it's still elite. I know how to position mobs as well as anyone.
entropy
Hundred blades has twice the recharge of HB. That makes it the same cept one is 5 energy and one is 10 with only one enemy. Other than that it all depends on position. And ractoh haven't you ever been trapped by mobs? It happens to me once every so often so that you can't move. Now thats hypethetical but nevertheless its not always so easy to move due to the piss poor collision detection system.
Racthoh
The only way one could get trapped by a mob would be if they're excessive number of warrior enemies. In which case, you could see that scenario before it even occurs could you not?
The collision system... yeah, that can be quite the nuisance at times. However, it is something that you have to adapt with for the time being until (hopefully) a solution is put in place. Also the recharge... I always forget about the recharges.
Cyclone Axe also requires some positioning as well in some cases where Hundred Blades wouldn't. But, I don't wanna turn this into another sword vs axe, HB vs CA debate.

Out of all the sword elites, Hundred Blades is the best IMO.
On a serious note, its great when you jump into a fight then one move later you've already got a few strikes of adrenaline. not to mention its the only sword AoE attack.

in anyways hundred blades is good. BTW, Cyclone axe can only be used with an axe equipped. If you try to use it with a swords, you get the "incompatible type" error...like I really needed to say this
