[quote=HelpHan]Sorry for asking a noobish question.

I recently achieved lvl 150 on my Dual Blade and learnt Blade Clone.

MP -200, Duration: 60 sec, Bonus Damage: 140%, Cooldown: 90 sec

When it was mentioning 'Bonus Damage' I was expecting extra lines of damages.

But as I use my skill I don't see any extra lines of damages of number changes of damage.
I am not sure if it is working without showing, or I understood the function of skill wrong.....

So how does Blade Clone function exactly?

Thank you in advance [/quote]

Blade clone is a final attack skill that procs 100% of the time.
Currently, the skill is still broken (final attack glitch around Unleashed patch - which was not fixed)...Blade clone does not proc 100% of the time.
Blade clone is suppose to add one extra line on the bottom and one other line from mirror image.

@FalenXangel: no it as added about 2 updates earlier in xenon nerf.

@ItzATrapp: yeah, I was actually very disappointed to find out DB and CS were the only explorers (now official) without specialized skills

Is the 10% added damage even noticeable?

Our Blade clone got the 10% dmg boost from the Gollux patch but none of the other skills have been affected as of yet. Dual Blades have to wait for Zero Patch if not the patch after to have the full buff we get (Which in all honesty is not much at all.

[quote=FalenXangel]I thought the 10% is to be added later in RED o.o[/quote]

Wait what? It got added already? I am confused.

I still wish we got a specialized skill.. </3

@FalenXangel o.o He's right. Check the skill description. It says Overall Damage Increase: 10%...
Why wouldn't they tell us ...

[quote=powerlad88]its final attack when you are facing an enemy. if the enemy dies it hits the next enemy or does nothing. its kinda weak but still use it for the 10% damage boost that was hiddenly updated to the skill. only reason its used is for the bonus damage.[/quote]

What is blade clone?
I am currently in the process of reinstalling maplestory after being absent for about 1 year o_o

its final attack when you are facing an enemy. if the enemy dies it hits the next enemy or does nothing. its kinda weak but still use it for the 10% damage boost that was hiddenly updated to the skill. only reason its used is for the bonus damage.

Works like a final attack skill. After you attack, there should be another number that pops up.
