Brutal Earring and Hexa Strike

[Khamsin]

If you land your first 7 hits, but miss the 8th, can Zanshin proc?

That's an interesting question, but is there a way to test it ?

No there isn't a way to test it but I'm fairly sure the answer is no, you can't swing more than 8 times for any reason, connected/whiffed/etc.

And wouldnt DE with AC and offhand only add up to 8 anyway? First hit gets tripled (3), offhand (4), then 4 more swings, (8)

Yea my math sucks today, you're right.

Ok back to the Hexa Question, assuming it does proc, what are the max TP return rates with Hexa? I see 17 mostly in campaign. Does this mean I should see 18 when Brutal procs or what?

That's really hard to say. I get 19 return when i get a full return, 20 with a DA. Club delay range is so big it depends on the clubs you're using.

Thanks Izzy I was hoping you'd see this post. I'm using BrassJag+1/Perdu, and only /nin and only in campaign anyways so not going to get so scientific over it!

I'm gonna go ahead and add this question here, since the other thread didn't take kindly to my not knowing the answer to any of these questions (lol)...

How does Brutal Earring affect multi-hit weapons? I'm offhanding a kraken club and want to be sure that it procs AFTER the kraken, not before it (e.g. the 5% DA wouldn't prevent the kraken from swinging multiple times).

Thx.

according to tests run on Ridill it's supposedly negative to use brutal with kraken or Ridill. But I've heard very mixed opinions on how accurate that test was. It was retreiving/s.d./serian or w/e if you want to send him a PM.

His data is good enough for me to say 30/50/20 activation rate on 1/2/3 swings
