Inconceivable!


 It's not a complete solution since the +Connect % still only affects primary strikes, but I think it's still a good way to mitigate part of Shadow Arts. Since it gives a bonus too, I thought Strength Mercs would be getting the biggest advantage from the Cyber Shillelagh actually, but since it's only on primary strikes, I still block Maul or Berzerker about 35%, so it wasn't as big of game changer as I thought it would be.

I do like the fact that this reduces luck factors instead of increasing them like Azrael's Bane did.

Let's not forget about the centerpiece of the new rare set: the Celtic Cleaver. This weapon will replace Azrael's Bane as our
new promo weapon, which will come free with the 10,000 varium package, in addition to being sold by Zedmyr in-game.
This soon-to-be legendary sword will offer a +7% bonus chance to connect on regular strikes. For clarification, this means that you will be
more likely to hit your opponents, and, conversely, they will be less likely to block you. It does not effect your personal block rate.


This off the DN so i pretty sure it for regular strikes only... since RNG is always involved though however, it will
always constantly mess with our heads that the weapon is working better than intended but that luck for you lol.

 As a bounty hunter, knowing that % Connect only works on regular strikes gives me some relief as my SA wasn't completely nullified. Still, the thought of a str merc doing a regular strike on rage with less chance to get blocked is somewhat terrifying. O.o

*laughs* You guys are kidding right?

A 7% accuracy boost on one weapon means very little. The only strong blockables we need to block are gamma bot attacks and skills like maul, berzerker, and bludgeon (which I HOPE the % doesn't apply to d.d).

First of all very few people own the sword second of all sword strikes are rarely threatening. Nothing to get worked up over, really.

 ^ Yep, the +7% to Connect doesn't apply to skills or robot which is exactly why the sword is nothing to get worked up over. It's essentially just a Frostbane with 1 extra damage.

I'm still confused. Will the chance to connect ONLY work for primary strikes or for skills like maul or zerker?

Almost everyone (except str builds) tend to use their robot/unblockables/skills over their primary so celtic cleaver's bonus to hit is nothing but a small, nice add-on IMO

Crimzon Magi, it only works with any physical strikes for the mage it would be the basic strike, malfunction, or Assimilation

but both with the sword and staff they were still blocked by bounties and mercs and some mages but more bounties than any other and Assimilation I saw blocked more often than before especially when I could take enough energy from mercs to take away artillary strike but with great disappointment it was blocked.

 @Hun Kingq, reread the quote Dorumon12 shared from the DN. The % Connect does NOT work with skill attacks (malfunction, assimilate, maul, berzerker, etc.) Only "regular strikes" (clicking the STRIKE button). You're probably just experiencing a bad streak of luck with all those blocks.

Anything that deals with a strike I don't think you snap your fingers to do malfunction or Assimilation unless I am wrong. No the blocks happen after I put in the verification code and then when they ask me to put in the verification code again I don't get blocked.

As I said in another similar thread, as soon as Christmas comes around again, the ForstBane will wreck all these new mumbo jumbo weapons.
