51026, Hurl throat.

Is this only 0 hours now like dirt kick? Seems like it isn't even worth using given how hard it is to land.

It's 0 ticks or 1 tick. I don't think this is anything new.
51039, Its pretty awesome.

Really allows you to pull off some great things, similar to tiger claw.

Eventually you are going to hit that hurl throat against the outer guardian that has 6 defenders that decided there was no way anyone would come retrieve so they went exploring. You'll catch that semi-afk mage sitting in the guild spamming locate and not paying attention, and you'll get that over confident invoker who you have entwined that you got writhing that thought escape will come via 'c word' but all that comes out is gargled blood.

But yeah, while it is not an 'I win' button in all situations, it can still be used for great smoovness points.

Yes. Unfortunately you'll miss it 2 out of every 3 times you try it and apparently half of the times it does work it'll only work until the end of the tick.

It's better than an icepick to the eye but I used to remember it being very good - not so much anymore.
51064, I've never noticed a change in success rate and I only expect it to work 1/5 of the times I use it. Dagger is also my favorite spec. n/t

51089, Success rate does change for throat...

HURL
syntax: hurl <location> <victim>
Valid locations are: forearm, shoulder, torso, leg, and throat.

With a simple flick of the wrist, a dagger can be thrown with deadly
accuracy. The affects vary depending on the location struck. Striking a
victim in the throat is especially challenging.


Just throwing that out there.
51097, Okay. This doesn't change the fact...

that the success rate of hurl throat hasn't changed and it only works about 1/5th of the time.
51103, Misunderstood your point. n/t

I loved it playing Haphanas (dagger - whip scout arial warrior) I got a couple kills opening with hurl throat + entwine and critical strike on magi before the hurl or entwine timer ran out. I kind of wished I didn't delete that one so fast but that was more because of character progression reasons than mechanical.

People told me while ranking up it was only a 0 timer but I had a feeling it could be 1 also
