Thread: 2.1 Steel Cyclone, Not Enough

As an expample warrior in WP could pull to the first bug "ambush", hit SC and approach a 100% damage reduction for nearly 30 seconds (sorry can't remember exactly how many bugs spawn there). The effect would still be going as the next next two groups could be easily pulled within that time frame. I'm not saying your idea is bad, but the added conditional would be too good for the small man stuff.

I must've missed that post. Found it. Definately would need to cap it, though.

I would like that, too.
