Let's say the Sword of Preemptive Strike adds 50% to current evasion skill, that way it doesn't Nerf evasion by providing 100% chance of preemptive strike, but works WITH evasion and adds to it. So evasion 4 (20%), would be buffed to 30% with the sword of preemptive strike.

Thoughts?
AFAIK... evasion and some other skills and efect may change a lot in the next update of AT (agressively moving monster, skill upgraded, new skills, etc).

So imo lets wait a bit.... and after next update...
Hmmm, good point. Do you like this idea for weapon though? Not the add to evasion aspect, but the Preemptive strike part.
hmm.. IMO there is at least two great ideas here:
- first strike. If you hold this kind of weapon you always hit first (one hit... or more)
- deflection. Ir you hold this kind of weapon you always dodge first hit (or more per round).

How about a 3rd option where there is a sword that automatically takes one swing automatically at any NPC that enters your radius (the 8 squares surrounding your hero).

Sword of Switchblades

As written:

yes way too powerful.

But with simple adjustments, like making it effect NPCs only once (or possibly having it only deal 1/2 damage) may help to round the ability out more.

Would be weird, walking around and seeing monsters crumpling down, but it would also be awesome in a way.

Edit: The shooting competitions would be a lot easier with this. :lol:
