Can some1 explain it to me ? Cuz i cant understand it it says: Temporarily changes the damage of critical attack and all Mortal Blow type skills. Effectiveness is dependent upon the direction of attack. Requires a dagger.

Wtf will mean changes the dmg?Means you hit harder with crit:? or wtf!?

Geez thx mate <3

Don't listen to him, he's beginning to disinform again, like when he joined this forum.

Cookie, i introduce you to this site: http://l2p.l2wh.com/
It has a lot of info. Go to buffs and search what you need. Let me do if for you in this case:

Focus Power

Critical Damage from front -30%, Critical Damage from side +30%, Critical Damage from back +60%

It sucks btw. It's the worst focus if you ask me. Focus chance is better.

Focus Chance

Critical Chance from front -30%, Critical Chance from side +30%,
Critical Chance from back +60%

But there's nothing better than focus death.

Focus Death

Critical -30%, Blow land rate +60%, Critical Damage from front -30%, Critical Damage from back +90%

Just go behind the enemy and do double damage. How does that sound? Land a crit backstab and you will probably kill a mage.

:O kick ass

man what do u mean with that Crit. CHANCE .i understood that i have more chances to give a 2x dmg backstab (crit backstab) or a 2x lethal blow, am i wrong ?

Critical chance is the critical rate of a general attack. Critical power, well you know what it is. The skill critical rate is the chance to land those so called 2x blows.
BEWARE, they are not 2x blows, they are critical blows and can be 3x or more when proper buffed.

ty, can you explain pls why is focus chance much better than focus power? ,sry for those newbie questions

well imo if u have low land rate like TH u dont need the power cuz your land rate sux and yes u do more dmg when u land it but..diff thing is 2 of 3 land and other thing is when 2-5 land(its smth like that)..thats my noob opinion:)

It's not necessary to use a focus on the th. If you are very good in tricking, use them, if not, well, don't. -30% blow land rate is really stupid, and -30% critical damage is silly too, with that poor blow land rate. The th just hasn't the right focuses.

If you ask me, the aw has the focuses fitting him like a glove. Focus death is perfect, because it may mean -30% damage from the front, but remember that critical power passive. It's absolutely silly to use focus power btw.
On a pw, focus death is there, true, but lacking critical power passive sais its word.
The th totally has the wrong focuses.

yepz thats all to say:)

A last question about focus death i use on my wind rider, and blinding blow.

In the description of Blinding blow it say it trick the enemy to show his back during the buff or something similar(its not only a speed buff), anyone know better about this? Does it mean every strike got the focus death bonus from the back if i use blinding blow and yet face the guy? Or is is a %, (like ony 30% of the blow are considered as back strike, this is pure exemple?)...

I have to test the combination focus death and bling blow, but it seam to me the description is wrong or the % of blow considered as back is low, am i wrong?

I just edited to sy the description in game talk about the fact it push the oponment to show his back, in pmfun, and l2wh description of blinding blow it say nothing about it so check this in game.

the back strikes aka backstabs are back-s only when u hit from back-there is vector system i think that calculates the direction of attack and gives the landin and backstab status-focus death affects all blows from behind:)ithink i answered all questions

Yes i know about the direction of attacks, i wasn't asking about this.

I was asking about blinding blow in combination with focus death.


Here is the description of blinding blow from lineage2.com:


"While attempting a powerful attack on the enemy's vital areas, it causes the enemy to show his/her back. Temporarily increases one's Speed greatly. Lethal Strike is possible. Requires a dagger. Power 2751."

This would mean using focus death+blinding blow is like hiting the back of the guy, whatever you face him or not? I'm right there?

it should turn him around, but he'll stay like that only until he triest o use some skill or attack. And, of course, the blow must land first...

but he has uber mirrage
