#54821, "Spinebreak Timer"


          

Just curious if there ever was a timer for spinebreak similar to blackjack/strangle other knock out effects in the 2-3 hour span? Seems kinda ludicrous an orc can spinebreak, trample, spinebreak/trample.

100% spinebreaker with backbreaker edge gives a horrible success rate, from my perspective nothing significantly different from 50%. Anything less than that and trying spinebreaker is asking for a beating - 3 rounds lag on failure. Just be glad you've gotten round my other primary lagging method on shamans. You didn't look like you were ever in much danger of actually dying to spinebreak/trample, or anything else I can do while you maintain your buffs.

It's been a little bit since I've played my latest orc, but if I remember correctly, you *generally* can get a command in between trample and the next command. Not always, but I thought most of the time that was the case.

I believe this is correct across the board.

Also, Spinebreaker's success rate isn't that hot even at 100%.

I never could figure out the specifics of trample lag. Not sure if you can catch the next command because people are spamming commands or if it sometimes lags that long.

E.g. victim size is really important?
