Holyforge so useless... yet fun sometimes.
Holyforge is the most useless and utterly disapointing disc Paladins get. The ability to crit and crip vs undead should be a natural one. I mean seriously how many times we come across undead? There is only ONE boss that actually REGISTERS as undead. Maestro... Draco... Trak... etc are undead but don't register as such. Only Venril Sathir is undead and registers... But how fun would it be if we didnt need a disipline to do this:



Hehe always fun to see people's faces when the paly lands the huge Crip... this was with Frostwrath by the way. (yes, 1handed) /brag off :P

I saw a crip for 599 somewhere, but for a 20ish damage weapon thats damn nice. Ferok will play with this skill some day =D.

Some people have mentioned a quick fix of making this disc a triple attack, an alternative would be to make this a defensive disc instead of offensive disc. There is plenty that could be considered. Personally I always imagine paladins as a defensive, AC, and sheild class that should have discs based around wielding a sheild. A few examples when active holyforge 1: ignores attacker level when calculating AC avoidance or 2: triples sheild AC bonus or 3: bash always lands and stuns.

Would be wonderful to see attention on this pending developer resources.
