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]]. | Pierce's true power is revealed with a look at the odds of hitting multiple targets.
