Hundred Blades

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?

its a very good elite... nice for quick adrenaline charges, and doing lots of damage to enemies

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.

you say you wont post who to get it from, so could you pm me where i can get it?

Thanks!

It's not a big secret.

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.

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.

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.

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.
