Random Notes on Sin Attack Animations

Anyone ever mess with a hero editor? If you haven't, go take the time to give an Assassin "Leap". Or Smite. She'll use the same animation for both, an unused somersault animation that looks rediculously cool. Anyone have an idea of why this animation was never used in the final version?

Also, when a Sin casts something or uses Blade Fury, she'll do a badass palm-strike maneuver. Are there any attacks that use this animation instead of her normal weapon swing or kick? (I'm talking oskills for this one)

That's the Assassin's S1 animation. Arctic Blast also uses this one, along with Smite, Dodge, Avoid and Evade.

It's just her casting animation. So any sorc skill would use it and plenty more.

Artic Blast must look trippy when an Assassin uses it.

The somersault is shown on JRichard's attack speed site, if anyone's interested.

What about the "ducking" move? And is the jump-spin-kick something unique, or is that just a kick and an orientation change?

:shocked: linky plz

so would fireball have the cool manuvuer? and is there anyway of getting other cool attack things on closed realms?

Fireball uses her palm strike, yes. Put on partial Trang's and see for yourself. The somersault was the only thing I found that was unused for the Sin, so I'm not sure.
