Topic: Storm Carl

  • Re: Storm Carl

    I have a quick question about the storm carl. If you play hurricane rush and use critical strike can you turn every hit into a six result or would the critical only apply to one set of dice because you roll separately for each one? This is hypothetical as I don’t have critical strike but was just curious. I would assume the sixes could only occur for one hit (so changing two dice to sixes). Otherwise could be a little OP.

    @ Rougie
    The storm carl is a very physical career and therefore suited two combat abilities. The reaver also has two combat abilities. As you rightly point out, they do not benefit from your brawn, therefore they are balanced. However, both abilities ignore armour. Hurricane rush is an excellent 'finisher' ability. If you have multiple opponents on low health (particularly in combats where opponents are being summoned or spawned), then hurricane rush is a good means of picking off a load of weak opponents - potentially also triggering a death move. Not every combat ability should necessarily be about hitting huge numbers. Wave is similar; an ability that gives you control over the weaker/damaged opponents you may need to pick off.

    @Polythemus
    Yes, you are correct in your assumption. Hurricane rush is a bit of an odd one in this context, but you roll the dice separately so if you were to use critical strike, the critical strike would apply to one pair of dice as they are the only ones in play at that time.

    Good to hear from you Marilyn.

    Book 3 continues the trend of Book 2 with a tendency of lower base stats and more abilities. I do like this hero, but in a hero vs hero fight I think he would struggle against my Cavalier from LoS:
