Shattered Kingdoms

Why is this skill still in the game? Reading some logs and noticed someone actually using it to no real affect at all. Do people actually still use this? I know with my last Merc I had give it a whirl and then never used it again.

I think its good against grouped NPCs...when you have nothing else to do.

How many grouped NPCs are there out there? I know in PK it's been useless even back when I was playing. I think there was a time it would hit anyone hitting the merc but now I think the NPCs have to be grouped for it to work.

Kind of lame.

NPCs are grouping all the time now

yea, everywhere they are grouped now

Are you sure they have to be grouped? I was using it to kill rats under exile not too long ago

You can use it against anyone you're in Melee with. They don't need to be grouped. I used it while leveling then while training skills.

But never in PK. Just like no one uses kick in PK, there are better things to do and I can't think of a way to improve it and keep the same idea behind it.

For a high level ability, it sucks that it sucks so bad in PK situations.

If Dulrik ever gets around to balancing out weapons, I think there should be some weapons that work better with blitzkrieg and maybe some additional affect.

Like chance for immediate decapitation. It might be semi useable then.
