Swift Assassin isn't considered a smash attack
Hello fellow Lynn's (Glaive),
As the title said, I've recently noticed something stange (Weird ? I dunno) :
Swift Assasin's Marks aren't Smashes !
So now I wonder, WHY ?
This way, Glaive MAIN dps potential is losing from Smash Mastery Skill (which is a 33% dmg increase !)
Do you think it's intended or do you think it is considred as a "special attack" ? (This way dmg formula may differ then)
If it's a "bug" then it SHOULD be fixed (ASAP) but as I don't play on kr server and that they recently had Lynn's change (see Future Content section), maybe it's different there.
PS : How I noticed -> Try doing "kill x boss with a Smash attack" by exploding marks. Result : It doesn't count as completed.

PS: Give up on glaive lynn bugs being fixed evah
PS2: Give up on any bug being fixed fast
PS3: If you wanna inrease your dps learn how to use feather bug (it's ~20% dmg increase they say)
PS4: If you wanna increase yar dmg even moar master even moar bugs, ya knu lynn is one of the masters in bugs ya gotta learn them all to deal moar dmg (permanent lil rat, additional skill use after jade fox, divine spear invul bugs - s3 glass, lugh and moar). Ya also should be aware of bad bugs (disabled windstep, hits in windstep, hits through lil rat, jade fox and new bosses incompatibility, no invul when using tunderleg immediately after windstep, strage hitboxes of most of glaive attacks, attacks that can't be dodged by tunderleg and I dun mean red attacks, camera problems when using tunderleg near wall, other camera problems )
PS5: Cookies, candies and other sweet things
The worst thing is that you can't apply sa in some situations like Arcana's chamber and to mobs. You loose about half of your damage + can't restore stamina + slower sp gain, but hey you can place sa on Dullahan's ghost though=)
and abyssal arena (in a party) and onslaught (for now) are bs of a whole new level.
but even with its bugs and awkward hit boxes Glaive in my opinion is still very enjoyable weapon to play. love it a lot.
@Vladino what is permanent little rat?=)
I enjoy Glaive, personally, don't take it wrong, it's just that I don't see why our primary source of dmg isn't a Smash like ALL others character's around...
To me, it's kind of like the most stupid "Char balancing" ever indeed.
Well, Hopefully, (I already know how to use feather bug) the upcoming Lynn's Glaive changes will help with it (not about bug fixing though).
Managed to get it in Balor, it's a lil tricky since ya have to get laggy during lil rat so it's moar difficult to get than evie's mana amber bug. Interesting is that with this bug on ya can't use lil rat or ya will lose tha bug, also sum attacks won't be dodged like balor's missiles (and red attack of course).
@Vladino
this is an interesting bug thanks for sharing.
when i play in a party i always lag really badly due to my connection but i've never encountered this bug
As stated here the changes seems promising :
The main idea is to make not detonated sa transferable or something like that can't say for sure because google translate you know...

A shame I don't really care about Onslaught mode then
Perhaps the way Swift Assassin works should now change, but I really don't think it's a bug- for the reasons I mentioned and the fact that lots of players have posted about this over the last 3 years including myself on the old forums, but no real answers.
That way, they could adress issues with her and think of a way to make her "great again" (lol), I mean to make her a place in parties.
On the ohter side, Lynn's community is nice so maybe a pty of Lynn's could show how they can do in redeemer. (There is Hurk and Fiona 8-man pty recorded for them on youtube)
this is how i see it
yes Lynn can do great damage we're all agree on that BUT to do equal to let's say spellsword you have to be really really really good meahwhile they can be like ok or maybe just good.
if we take average Lynn and Arisha (same stats of course) then i woudn't bet on Lynn but in situation best Lynn vs best Arisha i would say Lynn has a lot more chances to succeed because the difference between average Arisha and best Arisha is not that great but between average Lynn and best Lynn it is huge!
so to utilise her potential it requires great work and even then i would say her damage is still has high variance but in the same time it makes playing her so rewarding.
and again guys this is just my opinion and it could be wrong.
ps you can replace Arisha with Miri if you like=)
Indded, Lynn is an highly rewarding char, mastering her is really worth it !
Personally, I noticed that with high skill and a growing add dmg, you'll notice your improvements as opposed to others chars where I felt like doing good however I played.
So yeah, to me Lynn is a great char, I don't doubt it, she just needs more efforts and training than others to reveal her true potential.
if anyone is interested in

of course no changes for glaive whatsoever=)
to be honest i don't want (nor expect) them to change her core gameplay but some bugs and hitboxes fixes would be truly appreciated.... oh well next time maybe....=)
