Skills and Attributes
The following skills will affect this combat art:
Usage Strategies and Mechanics
- The rage modifier will multiply the next hit/Combat Art by x.x. Each enemy that is hit will store energy, with the larger number of opponents hit while using this Combat Art, thereby storing a larger amount of energy and increasing the damage dealt on the next blow.
- To view it's effect a player may look at the damage of their Combat Art before launching scything sweep, and then, right after, use scything sweep while surrounded by enemies. If at this moment the player stops to look at their tooltips damage indicator, the very large damage bonus accorded by this modifier will be seen.
- The rage modifier will affect the next Combat Art used, which will permit a Shadow Warrior to use Scything Sweep followed by Demonic Blow or Frenzied Rampage as part of an effective melee combination.
- A player can triple and/or even quadruple their damage with this chosen modifier,for example,by targeting a large mob like those which surround the Sinister Prince, then use Scything Sweep and then finally launch a nasty Frenzied Rampage in the face of the Sinister Prince.
- The Rage modifier works well in combination with critical and Deathblow bonus.
