In an awe inspiring display of combat mastery, a human mugger engages you in a furious dance macabre, spiralling into a blur of strikes and ripostes!
A human mugger swings a flail at you!
AS: +441 vs DS: +428 with AvD: +42 + d100 roll: +66 = +121
... and hits for 1 point of damage!
Broken finger on your right hand!
A dark shadowy tendril rises up from your skin, writhes its way up a flail towards a human mugger and lashes out malevolently...
CS: +540 - TD: +392 + CvA: +1 + d100: +35 == +184
Warding failed!
The human mugger's right arm explodes!
The mugger's flail falls to the ground.
The human mugger is stunned!

** Your invar arm greaves release a blast of vibrating energy at the human mugger! **

... 15 points of damage!
Nice blow to head!
The human mugger looks dazed!

The next time you swing an arm at me will be the last time you have arms.

If cloak of shadows went off on cmans we'd rule the wooooooooooorld. Someone make it happen.

I remember when they were gonna roll out a maneuver defence to 704. Those bastards.

It does go off on bearhugs, I think garrote too?
Morph

really? That's good to know. It doesn't go off on any temple or bandit cmans.

In theory it should go off on any attack that involves a physical touch, so not a cman like feint, or disarm, but definitely tackle, bearhug, sweep, cut throat, etc etc.

does cloak of shadows not activate on charge?
Asha
06-08-2011, 05:44 PM
Nope.

I've never had it activate on a cman. See this thread i made 2 years ago: http://forum.gsplayers.com/showthread.php?t=42551. I take a charge and a shoulder check and cloak doesn't activate, but then it goes off each time I get hit with a regular attack. Keep in mind this was 2 years ago! I'm much too beefy to get hit now :D

A shoulder charge or whatever definitely won't flare 712.
If Morph was stunned during the weapon charge and it didn't go off, there's your answer I guess.

I was wondering what would happen if a bare fisted brawler hit you when stunned..
