Also, Double Shot hits once, but shoots two projectiles. That probably counts as two hits since Snipe - Bonus Attack counted as two hits i.e. it might work off lines of damage and not 'hits' (I would refer to this as attackCount, but some skills that hit once don't have this variable), but that isn't really evidence or an argument to support that idea, since that hyper skill probably changes the attackCount and not add another line of damage. Might be the case for Additional Bolt, too.

[quote=bluebomber24]Even though you think little of it, it boosts Pierce which WILL be the skill you use most of the time as you will eventually have to start training again and ask yourself how often do you truly boss. Second, w/o AB Net Throwing has a 9% probable failure chance to not slow a monster. Additional Bolt makes it where its improbable that Net Throwing will ever fail. The passive effect of AB is the cake, the +1 is the frosting, stop complaining and just eat.[/quote]

Any confirmation that it triggers per hit?

[quote=Thenubbies]Yea, I suppose. It feels like Nexon is just adding something one it just for poops and giggles. At least it isnt as bad as Nexon adding +ACC or +%ACC to a skill.[/quote]

What do you mean? It has a useful effect. ACC is a useless effect.

[quote=poo1818]How about I saw this one skill that says farther you are the more Pdr ur hits have? My friend told me this he might've been wrong. Seems like s good idea tho[/quote]

It exists.

[quote=iVege]Not seeing how its effect is pointless, but yes, to say "all skills that hit more than once", when that only applies to two skills does seem pointless (well, not in itself, but they could've just gave Piercing Arrow 5 hits since they belong in the same job anyways, and it would be a passive boost to Net Throwing). Dragon's Breath's arrow animation features three arrows, so it should hit 3 times in my opinion.[/quote]

Yea, when I saw DB I thought the same.

OT: Well, you main skills is Snipe and Pierce with I assume DB for rushing and Net throwing for slowing. So it works on 50% of your active skills. They could have just added it to the effects to specific skills like ivege said and increase the SP count. Either way I don't see a big deal about it. At least its not like Bandits boost where they get a boost to critical chance they don't potentailly need for half of its second effect.
