Latest revision as of 19:29, 31 January 2011

if this is correct.... wow.... every1 in a group take this and BAM! there goes a group of demons

Do the additional creatures hit by this skill get interrupted too? Or just the first one?

Other Demons

Do these skils work on Demons that do not work for Abadon, such as oni?

This would be something to test. Also I think list of monsters affected by this skill are same as monsters who are affected by Lightbringer title effect. It would be nice to have a complete and accurate list in Lightbringer article too. Currently there is only link to demon page, which is misleading. --Mira 02:04, 21 November 2006 (CST)

Is there another instance of holy damage not ignoring armor? And didn't this skill get nerfed? Crimson Butcher 19:08, 19 January 2007 (CST)

Arcane Echo no longer works with this spell.

Echo works fine with Lightbringer's Gaze. Arcane Echo does not work. Thus echo-chaining this spell no longer works.

Did you try Arcane-Echoing the Echo? — 130.58 (talk) 00:30, 16 December 2006 (CST)
