View Full Version : Sword Throwing (aka Crosscutter)

I'm going to play a Blademaster, and I'm interested on how the Crosscutter skill works.


So here are my questions:
1-If you're wielding two swords, how does the game decides wich one do you throw?

2-Whats the damage the sword gives? Is it it's normal damage plus the skill bonus (for example, X amount of poison damage from the sword * 100% from the skill), or is it just the skill damage (for example, X amount of physical damage)?

3-When you throw the sword, do you have do go get it back, or does it return? (like in Jedi Academy)

4-And if it returns, can it get stuck on the environment (a wall or a car for example)?



PS: I know the people who are playing Alpha can't answer this due to NDA, but I think that perhaps someone who played a Blademaster at Community Day has the permission to answer these questions ;)

I can't understand this skill really.

I guess you answered this question kinda yourself. I could tell you all about it but sadly i dont know how much of that skill is under NDA. I guess you can look at the skill description from the skill tree KK made, but thats it.

I recall seeing a video of them tossing a sword.... I could be easily mistaken though. Seen so many damn video's, so I could be trippin on what I've seen.

Well, there was that trailer from ages ago, where the male templar threw a sword into one of the demons. But I definitely wouldn't use that video to describe the game mechanics.:D

From what I've seen and think I have read, it will reappear back in your hands after a limited time. Not 100% though...

yeah man, i know the vid won't describe the mechanics but it could answer the question of whether the sword comes back to you or not... granted though it's probably a brief clip of it And it could have changed since then :)
