Where are my hyperskills

So does anyone know when hyperskills for explorers are coming out because I'm ready for my hurricane to get split.

no, he's right!
2 arrows of normal hurricane = max 2 crits
4 arrows of split hurricane = max 4 crits

It's just that it does the exact same damage in the end[/quote]

Yes.... >_> strictly and technically speaking you will [b]SEE[/b] more "Crits" but it won't have the impact damage impact of more crits.

@Sunlight: see below
@PoofCake: and NO -_-

Crits are multiplicative. Do not know why people still don't know this. To save time in explaining what should be know myselft; Per [url=http://www.basilmarket.com/forum/2565467#misconceptions]Archer Guide[/url]:

[b]Misconception: [/b]More crits means more damage!
Since the Big Bang update, critical hits are multiplicative. This means that hurricane changing from 1 hits to two (at 50% damage) is not affected by critical except to average your damage more consistently, if you do not have 100% crit rate.
Math:
Critical Shot: 45% Rate
Critical Damage: 1.2x~1.5x: Average: 1.35x
100 * 1.35 * 0.45 + 100 * 0.55 = 115.75
(50 * 1.35 * 0.45 + 50 * 0.55) * 2 = 115.75
The damage is obviously identical.

lol no. A split hurricane would equal a higher chance to get crit from each attack.

even though it's been 2-3 months while KMS released every 3-4 weeks. if this pattern continues, GMS Resistance receives in 6-8 months. we are justified in becoming impatient (not necessarily a right to be angry, mind you)

There have been TONS of threads about this.

Nobody knows, but hopefully the patch after Hayato.

Explorers do not get hyper skills for awhile.

Stay patient.
