Think cause it's set to modal or something

i dont think its a waste of time to put good combat animation once the duration is short enough to fit in.... i believe it will even make the game look alot better

combat animations with diff attacks, parrys, dodges and blocks.... plzzzzzzz..... it will look awesome on those little characters.. the game will look alot better

First, I want to distinguish between Deflection and Damage Threshold. Deflection is what enemies attack, it's like AC in D&D. Deflection is derived from the character's class, level, and other bonuses from gear, spells, etc. Damage Threshold is what's used to reduce damage once you get hit and it comes mostly from the armor you wear, though heavier armor slows the character's actions (attacks, spells, etc.) down. The advantage to wearing lighter armor in PoE is a faster attack speed, which can lead to great offensive potential. If you wield a single-handed weapon with no shield, you will gain an Accuracy bonus, but not a Deflection bonus. A dude with padded armor and a rapier will attack frequently and with higher accuracy, but he'll be relatively easy to hit and take more damage. If you want a great Deflection, wear a shield and accept standard Accuracy (or even reduced Accuracy for heavier shields). If you want to soak a lot of damage, wear heavier armor. ok i see.... was hoping i could create a dual wielding character.... dat could fend off multi foes without having to hold a shield.... may be with a talent to help back dat up or sumtin lol..... u know kind of like drizzt do'urden in r.a salvatore books.... thanks for the info though

will it be possible to create a fighter dat has very deflection.... a fighter that doesnt need to have heavy armor and heavy sheild to hold off enemys..... just through great melee defence skills?

will it be possible to create a fighter that has a very high deflection.... don't really like the idea of a tin can fighter who has to wear the heaviest armors and take damages with shield and raw toughness... wat I mean is like a skilled fighter who can make good evasion steps while fighting??

what I mean is.. when a character is at an epic level... there could be some effect with people around talking about you and lower level enemies could get scared when fighting you... stuff like that

jst wondering y u guys had to put guns in the game.... thought i'd have the usual lord of the rings epic feeling to the game... but the gun kills that somehow
