Flurry of questions

[Skyburst]

Have a couple of questions on Flurry...

Dual wielding, are both weapons involved?

If the weapon(s) proc an instant cast (no recycle time) due to wpn or aug is there a chance for proc with each hit (or swing) of the flurry?

...or is the flurry calculated as a single event with regard to procs and such?

Interested mainly at the 70 level. Thanks!

only mainhand can flurry, a flurry only has a chance to work when you tripple attack, and u only tripple with mainhand.. also i think you can only proc once on any given attack round..

once per proc per round so round with multiple procs are still possible as long as it is different procs.


and on flurry mechanics... it is a melee attack skill similar to double attack skill and aren't 'proc' since the number of flurry per minutes scales with haste. It is trigered on succesfull tripple attack skill check (not triple swing, see below). At max AA the flurry rate is aproximately 90%, which means that 90% of your successfull tripple attack check will triger a flurry (but only less than 16% of your double attacks will turn into tripples, and less than 90% of your attacks will turn into doubles). Note that a flurry is either a single or a double additional swing(s), with a mean of 1.5 swings per flurry. Note too, that the additional swing provided by the blade line of AA (punishing and wicked blade AA for 2Her) can't trigger a flurry (hence I remarque that flurry trigers on tripple attack skill check) and thus don't increase the flurry rate even if it increases the number of round with three and more swings.

I had thought that Flurry could work off a double, as you can get Flurry before you can do a triple attack. Am I wrong on that?

[daw4888]

you get innate tripple attack at lvl 59, you cant get flurry aa until lvl 59 coz its the class part of AA... thus lvl 59 required.

[Tempur]

You don't get triple attack until 60. I was under the impression that the flurry AA could be purchased at 59, but wouldn't actually work until 60 due to that.

ok, but ne way, flurry doesnt work unless u get off a tripple, i think the AA says that plainly

the first flurry AA doesn't explicitely say triplle attack (contrary to the two next level of AA). So theoritically it would be possible. But I never see any evidence of this phenomenom, to parse this best would be that brutul parse it on test server to /test a lvl 59 warrior witout flurry AA to get a base swing rate, then again with Flurry3 to get the exact effect of this AA. Then level up to 60 were you get tripple attack, and redo the two parses (with and without AA) to see the differences.
Since the only parses I have are at level70 with max flurry AA, I made the hepothethis that flurry are trigered only from tripple attack skill to ease the computation, then I saw evidence of flurry rate not increasing with max blade AA, hence my remarque.
But still the question of a part of the flurries coming from double and the rest from tripple hasn't been cleared.

[daw4888]

i think the blade aa, and flurry aa's are on differnt triggers... AKA the blade aa only checks only if its a double attack, and flurry only checks if its a tripple, thus when blade goes off, it acks as a double attack +1, not a tripple attack.
