Shield Throw questions!

[SaintSlavut]

Will stacking CB make a significant difference like it does with Smite?

Will it trigger Deadly Strike or Open Wounds?

Will it trigger autocast effects? (Chance to cast on attack/striking/hit/whatever)

Will % damage effect the skill? (% dmg to undead, % enhanced damage, etc)

[Game]

It has a chance to apply the Crushing Blow with each bounce.

Yes, it triggers anything a normal auto attack will, and will be affected by anything a normal auto attack will (Aside from splash damage mod or specific melee mods)

Yep!, see above!

Yep!, see above!

This is amazing. Thanks Alex

No problem!

When combined with amplify damage that procs from the IK mallet, it's quite deadly in plaguelands. Not to mention that you leech life more effectively with amp damage and shield throw stun locks all of the normal monsters except for the Flesh Golems (which melt anyway). You can face tank plaguelands with ease wearing the full IK set. I just use the ghosts as conduits to bounce my shield off of while keeping them locked down.

Using Frostmourne with shield throw is hilarious. With proper -% enemy cold resist and 100% CB you could be a one man tank and spank. Love those revives

Thanks for the info Manhammer. Shield barb has been fun so far. Can't wait to run with elite gear!

[Krassus]

may I ask, for IAS calculation purposes and breakpoints, is it based on the normal attack?

[thessarill]

I dont know for the Ias etc, I wonder the stats too.

[rrra]

Yeah does anybody know what the ias or fcr breakpoints are for this skill?

[Game]

It uses throw breakpoints!
