The truth about strong arm

after long argument between members i decided to study more towards the skill

and got to a conclusion:
what i know for sure is,


it decreases the chance your heavy weapon gets impacted that often
i.e a brute with choc will have to hit more hits to disarm a brute holding morning star and strong arm
while it will take less hits to disarm a brute with morning star and no strong arm

it DOES NOT add any damage to your heavy weapons AT ALL!

any questions?

But...

http://www.twinpedia.com/muxxu/labrute/competences

the wiki says
-25% interval between rounds (only with heavy weapons)
meaning it speeds up how many times you attack with heavy weapons by 25%

that seems like the important part to me

i didnt see that happen in fight except once or twice

it exist,but definitely not 25%

pretty sure without strong arm i would not have won that fight

i said from more than 50 fights i saw the effect of speeding up the weapon 20 times only
it does speed it up, but not MUCH, thats what i mean

i watched more than 100 fights to build up the conclusion i got to

Yeah, it's hard to see because since heavy weapons slow you down, the skill doesn't really speed you up so much as make it slow you down less. So you're not fast, you're just normal speed.

well now i am pretty much confused about Strong Arm , or if it is not Strong Arm then Untoutchable.
this untoutchable with 22 agi (with no weapons in her hands first and then shuricken) just got hit 2 from 2 times with the bad Clubs , and this raise the Question what did make him hit twice successfully???
he only had 6 Agi and Srtong Arm!!!

Strong arm decreases the time interval by 25% before you hit another time.
The opponent has less time to profit from the heavy arm effect.

It has nothing to do with accuracy. For once, the meaning of the skill is clear, I wonder why you guys think too much about it...

You could call this bad luck for the untouch...

IMO it's not a very good skill.

double attack with stone hammer + strong Arm
http://labrute.muxxu.com/fight/85920959?chk=874a
yes the opponent has 1 speed but still without Strong Arm she would have never be able to attack twice with stone hammer

This match is really explicit. Normally, just meditation brutes and other speedy freaks like to come back with a hammer.

That's for what strong hammer is made. And it seems to be quite useful for the soft Rica^^.

Aside: poor Cherok! He used to beat PunchDrunk all the time back in Berserk rank, when he had no weapons and 30 strength with a passable rapidity. What ever possessed him to take the halberd, a weapon that will slow him down further and he has neither 6th sense nor maitre? No wonder the guy is now two ranks behind.

double attack with clubs + strong Arm

i gess Strong Arm is usefull with heavy weapons after all.

SO! i am too lazy to read whatu guys said

my theory is right?!

the part about it DOES NOT add any damage to your heavy weapons is true.

the part about increase the chance of the heavy weapons NOT GETTING DISARMED is wrong.

what i now am noticing and posting in my Fights is that :
usualy all heavy weapons make you 50 - 100 % slower in every round.
and Strong Arm decrease this persentage to 25 - 75 % which means:

without Strong Arm: you attack with heavy weapon and then the opponent hits you 2 times before you can start a new attack.
with Strong Arm: you attack with heavy weapon and then the Opponent hits you 1 (maybe 2) time before you can start a new attack.

I just wonder why you made so many theories for an ability awfully crystal-clear.

It increases the speed for heavy weapons you could say.

yes i get what you wonder
but we needed to find some brutes to see it in our Eyes and post some fights to study it to see how much is true from this -25% increase.. for example i never believed that halbard had nearly 90% 6th sense untill i saw it my self. or the increase of Master Arm on Epee....etc

its all about to find some fights to confirm what ever we can think or hear or read about. and after that we move on to the next one. that what makes the fun go on and that is exactly what was missing in Mybrute.com for me.

and most importantly i am only allowed to play with 3 account so i get bored very fast

If you have 20 brutes by account, you don't have time to get bored
6th sense for halberd is logic cause it's the longest weapon in the game... and my favorite.
Yeah, I was quite surprised to see MOA working with it.

lol 20 Brutes are not enough for me specialy when i have to lvl them up even if i hate their destinies. if i am creating new accounts i can just stop playing with the bad ones and create new accounts. but in my case i have to get them to win a freaken Final which is kind of very hard in padawan and DB and then start with new Destiny
