Capable of doing around 150 damage on an iajutsu strike with a normal katana. You dont even see the sword before its cut you into ribbons. SyrathEdited By syrath1001 on 08/28/04 19:20
Interesting build. ~ Lock. _________________ "Life builds you up just to tear you down." - 3rd Strike
Yeah its really good fun running up to something (stealth or not it really makes no difference) sword undrawn. Doing an Iajutsu draw ( 2 cuts or echo) doing 300 damage in the first couple of hits, resheath the sword , then doing another draw for another 300 damage. Should be enough to kill most things in 2 maybe 3 rounds. If you can hips in between, even better. Syrath
I do like the build, but I got a little bummed out about Iajutsu Master because the abilities doesnt seem to work with Sneak Attacks. I had a really nice build all planned out, but that ruined it for me! That, and it just felt . . . weird. . .to kill things without showing my weapon. _________________ Normal kids play rock-paper-scissors. Shifter kids play IronGolem-RustMonster-MindFlayer. . .
