As I said, this wasn't a one time occurrence.
When I use a 451 in bvb, I tend to lose. This happens every time (not that I lose every time, but I tend to lose more rounds of every ft5)
But when I don't, I win a lot more.


There are tons of variables that go into a duel, especially in a match-up like BvB where there are so many random factors and things like whirlwind angles come into play. You can't jump from a thesis to a conclusion, that's unscientific. You have no concrete facts, the only evidence to back up your claim is anecdotal evidence, which is very easy to discredit. There should not be any question as to why it's hard to believe what you are saying, nor should it be difficult to accept that there is a very likely probability that you are incorrect.

I remember talking to James ds jahusama and when we're talking about builds he mentions how he won't use psn vs every champ but he will vs necs sorcs ect.. I don't remember the whole list but I do think it is less effective against some clases but if you are like barb vs smite anyways that's a dumb duel and who gives a fk

Well I'll re test it and fix it in the new draft of the guide if I'm wrong.
That's why I write drafts.

Get a weapon with constant damage (ie a grief phase blade)
Stack deadly strike with highlords, guils, gores, ect. That's like 85%.
Swing 5 times and record the dmg of each swing, you will be able to tell which strikes are deadly.
then put a poison charm in your invy, and repeat the test.


yeah, 5_times_swing-tests are totally diagnostically conclusive :thumbsup:

But I didn't proc venom... I did short whirls.
Also, did you even consider what you're saying?
How would venom reducing the damage on a poison charm cut the damage of WITHOUT the poison charm in half?

Also, I did a second test, multiple times.
I did a ft5 with a barb who had about the same gear as me

I used 33x 3/20/20s, and I won.
Then I used 32x and a 451, and I lost
What would cause that...?

oh wow... LOL

Hey man, so from what I've seen, you look like the authority on melee.
I thought I'd bring this question to you.

I've heard that having a poison charm in your inventory can cancel out deadly strike. Not critical strike, but deadly strike exclusively.
Have you personally tested this and proven it true or false?
Or if not, do you believe this?
I trust you have a lot more experience in this then I do.


Hi. Yes thats true and having psn charm is bm.


So I just got this. Sounds to me like you guys are just fucking around in my thread.
Before any retard posts, he is saying poison charms are bm in gm melee, not in reg duels.

If D2Child say that its bm, it must be true.

D2Child is well respected on east nl. He has some really gfg melee chars too.

So poison charms are bm in melee duels even though they cancel out deadly strike?
