    Default Greater elemental flares

    Hello, a lot of people have been asking about greater elemental flares. I just wanted to point a few things out and share some of the flares with everyone.

    The greater elemental weapons at duskruin have two seperate flares. There is one that is a two damage cycle flare, and another that is a single damage cycle flare. They can each occur separately and at the same time.

    This is an example of the two damage cycle flare:

    ** A nebulous dome of blue ether discharges from a gnarled ironwood runestaff capped with a sphere of ur-barath and engulfs a spotted and striped warcat! **
    ... 30 points of damage!
    Elbow shatters under sudden decompression!
    ... 10 points of damage!
    Veins in neck stand out briefly!

    This is an example of the single damage cycle flare:

    ** Your runestaff flickers as the space around a muscular centaur champion folds inward and draws its surroundings closer! **
    ... 30 points of damage!
    Spine cracks!

    This is an example of them both occurring at the same time.

    ** A nebulous dome of blue ether discharges from a gnarled ironwood runestaff capped with a sphere of ur-barath and engulfs a grey-skinned hunter troll! **
    ... 25 points of damage!
    Decompression causes muscles in leg to snap!
    ... 25 points of damage!
    Veins in neck swell!
    ** Your runestaff flickers as the space around a grey-skinned hunter troll folds inward and draws its surroundings closer! **
    ... 30 points of damage!
    Sternum snaps followed by many ribs!

    My testing is far from scientific but the double cycle flare seems to be about a 10.2% rate, and the single cycle flare appears to be near 12.2%. This is only based on a total of 842 hits.

    Also here is a link to some more flares and some death crits

    So about a 20% chance of having some kind of flare on a given swing?
    Your mind is completely fucked. It is imperative that you unfuck immediately!

    Has anybody tried using greater elemental fire on trolls? How does that look?
