miss activate counter helix?

Posted: Thu Nov 06, 2008 8:49 pm

i have a question, does a miss still have a chance to activate ax's counter helix? cuz if it does, that is awome, instead of a van guard, (late game obviously) get a butter in there and as far as attacks go, you have a 1/3 bonus hp!

ofc it does

as razos said it procs on animation, those "attacked-triggers" skills(empowering haste is one, too, and craggy exterior IIRC) are the first things that "happen" on an attack, evasion is only the second, the next one is the attacker miss chance, and so on...

so yeah, butter helps, but i'd first go for hp and maybe some armor

ok guys it works like this, as soon as the enemies attack animation starts, helix will either proc, or not proc.

evasion will proc when the actual attack reaches its final point ie. hitting the target. if evasion triggers, the attack will miss.


so yes, they stack.

static feild (mjolliner's active) works in the same way as helix.

Helix procs on the start of the attack animation. Period. Thats how its coded. For example, if you keep slicking S while you are in berskers call, helix will have a chance to activate on every canceled attack, if the animation started. SO, as soon as you right click axe, and your attack animation starts, the counter helix trigger will activate. Even if you cancel your attack animation, the counter helix trigger will activate. Thus, the resault of the attack itself has no relevance on counter helix activation. PERIOD. Very Happy

EDIT: Grrr! Ghost beat me to it! I wrote my reply too long -.-'
