Fists of Fire

Fists of Fire.png Description: 3 stage charge-up attack adds Fire Damage to Attacks, does an Explosive Attack and Summons a Meteor. Requires claw-class Weapon(s).
Required Level: 6
Prerequisites: Dragon Claw

This skill is part of the new Charge-up mechanic which allows charge-up effects to trigger on all melee attack skills including itself. Charges are also no longer consumed when triggered, and will only expire when the duration has ended. Charge effects are cumulative which means at three charges, all three effects are triggered simultaneously. Attacking with Fists of Fire will increase the current charge count by one and refresh the duration for all existing fire charges. While dual-wielding claws, charge up skills perform a double attack and gain two charges rather than one. The Fists of Fire charges have new effects compared to the original game: The first stage adds fire damage to attacks. The second stage causes an instant explosion that deals fire damage to nearby enemies. The third stage sends a meteor crashing down after a short delay, dealing fire damage and physical damage equal to 25% of the fire damage while also leaving a short duration burning ground.

Charge 1: Attacks deal fire damage
Charge 2: Adds an explosive fiery attack
Charge 3: Summons a meteor that deals fire/phys damage in an AoE
Maximum Charges: 3
Charge duration: 7 seconds

Blades of Ice

Blades of Ice.png Description: Claw-class Charge-up skill. Requires claw-class Weapon(s)
Required Level: 30
Prerequisites: Dragon Claw, Dragon Talon, Fists of Fire, Claws of Thunder, Dragon Flight

This skill is part of the new Charge-up mechanic which allows charge-up effects to trigger on all melee attack skills including itself. Charges are also no longer consumed when triggered, and will only expire when the duration has ended. Charge effects are cumulative which means at three charges, all three effects are triggered simultaneously. Attacking with Blades of Ice will increase the current charge count by one and refresh the duration for all existing ice charges. While dual-wielding claws, charge up skills perform a double attack and gain two charges rather than one. The Blades of Ice charges have new effects compared to the original game: The first stage adds cold damage to attacks. The second stage creates icicles that seek out enemies, dealing cold damage and a fraction of attack damage while also converting a portion of physical damage to cold. The third stage allows the icicles to chill enemies for a duration.

Charge 1: Attacks deal cold damage
Charge 2: Icicles seek nearby enemies
Charge 3: Icicles chill enemies
Maximum Charges: 3
Charge duration: 7 seconds
Icicles deal 50% of Weapon Damage
Icicles convert 80% of physical attack damage to cold
Synergies Bonus to skill
All other Charge-up Skills +2% Cold damage per base level

#1 Bedrock
  • Compared with Vanilla D2, skill has been reworked as follows: now releases numerous (~5) ice bolts. Each ice bolt counts as a ranged attack and consequently applies weapon damage and associated modifiers and effects (e.g. elemental damage, deadly strike, crushing blow, and chance to cast on striking, but only the initial attack triggers melee splash). The ice bolts are generated whether the melee attack hits or not, but each ice bolt again rolls an AR check, to decide if it hits. The damage is first reduced then converted (E.g. 200 phys dmg become 60cold and 40phys dmg). (Bedrock #1-hidden)
