Pierce
,no edit summary
==[[Pierce]]==
'''Required Level:''' 30<br />
'''Prerequisites:''' [[Critical Strike]], [[Penetrate]]<br />
'''Synergies:''' None<br>
'''Details:''' This skill gives the Amazon's projectiles, javelins, bolts, or arrows, a chance to pass through a target and continue on, possibly hitting a second (or third, or fourth) enemy. Each target takes the full damage of the attack, including all possible skill bonuses, elemental hits, etc.
* Pierce is most noticeable when monsters are in a tight cluster or a long row, such as in narrow hallways.
* Pierce pairs very well with [[Lightning Fury]], but helps a lot on all of the bow skills (especially [[Strafe]]) and other ranged attacks as well.

Pierce's true power is revealed with a look at the odds of hitting multiple targets. More points don't make that big a difference in the odds of hitting two enemies, but the odds are compounded when figuring if a given shot will hit three or four or five enemies. This makes a huge difference when using a skill that triggers on each hit, such as [[Lightning Fury ]] or [[Immolation Arrow]].
