Axe with butterfly ?????

Posted: Tue May 13, 2008 11:06 am

Hello everyone....i have a question for you...what happens when Axe has a butterfly combined with his counter helix???... the missed hits from bf can trigger counter helix ??? i think not.... so butterfly is a bad option for him or it will increase his survivability with a cost of dmg (175)???? ....thanks!

butterfly bad on him
reasons:
evasion decreases chance to trigger a helix
attack speed and damage is wasted since axe dont need it
it is one of the worst things you can put on axe

Wow. A lot of people here are misinformed.

The Counter Helix trigger is checked on attack and not on hit .
This means that when anyone tries to attack Axe, there is a chance that Counter Helix will trigger, regardless whether that attack hits or misses.

Even if it is on attack (I have no idea, but I'd trust Yukino over you guys), Butter is still a silly item for Axe - more tank items please!

Seconded yuki's post.

So yeah, that's why when you got Called, spamming 'Stop' command so you won't trigger Helix is a bad idea since it actually triggers more Helixes at you!

Maybe butterfly is optional but I prefer cuirass since 30 damage from agi is wasted.

Helix triggers om enemys animation, therefor it´s triggered even when you evade.

No because if you evade then you cant helix. it only goes if u get hit.

Lol Axe with Butterfly is like eating a fail sandwich.
You would definitely buy a Heart with the kind of money you need for Butter. No Questions asked.
