What does Skill work on besides the obvious crit and healing.

MrTheWaffleKing

A couple questions on skill's effect on buffing allies.
Does it increase Pig's Hog Wild "50% chance to attack again" trait (or any beast's Pack Tactics proc chance)?
Does it increase Lupina's 25% damage trait?
Does it increase Grog's Large and in Charge traits stats?
Does it increase Solaris' Mythical Beast team health trait or their defense buff after she sacrifices herself?
Also does it make damage reduction stats like Flying or Magical increase?

It increases damage and effectiveness of buffs/debuffs without fixed stats. Increased dodge, increased chance of applying debuff, increased DOT from debuff, increased healing, increased shroud protection, etc.

It does not affect Pignius’ Hog Wild, however does increase Beastial Roar buff. It does not affect Lupina’s 25% damage, however does increase fear debuff.

In other words, Skill does not have an effect on passives with fixed stats that are static with level change.

Edit: apparently does affect fixed stats.

Ok thanks.

• Doesn't increase Hog Wild chance.
• Does increase Lupina's damage passive.
• Does increase Large & in Charge.
• Does increase both Solaris effects mentioned.
• Doesn't affect flying/armored/magical, but will affect active damage reduction effects, like Kai's drenched or shade's shroud.

It used to increase the % increase of Ember's atk bonus from her first ability. Not sure if that was changed or not. I used to have all skill on her and the increase seemed pretty massive.

Wow, good to know.

MrTheWaffleKing

So Lupina could be given pure skill rather than damage to make Grog Gnog and Goretusk do huge damage. Might be better than Pignius' chance for bonus hits.

Are these tho only increases? Nothing else mentioned here? I've seen some wicked healing on Solaris lately, like almost dead Solaris fully healing without a kill. Also I thought Shrouded was always 27%? What about Pontifex undead fervor? Doesn't say an amount.

It should still increase it, as it’s an applied buff.

You know what would be nice? If we could tap and hold on buffs/debuffs to see their stats. Like if we could tap on a Diseased hero’s ‘Disease’ debuff to see just how much their Atk and Healing have been reduced by.
