Spirit Strike and You

Unread post by Ranshiin »

Spirit beasts are interesting creatures to say the least and rare in all cases, here are some tested facts to know about Spirit Strike.

Spirit Strike can be spell reflected
>Odd as it sounds, this is true, your pet's family ability can be spell reflected back at them.

Spirit Strike can consume 2 charges of Kill Command
>The initial damage as well as the damage after six seconds both consume charges, however this is a bad thing as the 'dot' portion cannot critically strike but still receives the damage bonus from kill command. This should not be a problem if your focus dump is active.

Spirit Strike is not effected by spell power buffs
>Not a big surprise, it may look like moonfire and act like a spell in every way, but spell power buffs on your pet do not effect spirit strike

Spirit Strike is effected by spell damage debuffs
>Debuffs like Ebon Plague and Curse of Elements do effect spirit strike's damage on the target.

When you look at it like this, spirit strike really stands out as a pet ability. Blizzard should, in my opinion, either add more magic type skills similar to this or just try to take it out, or maybe tweak it... then again I guess any poison ability is kinda magicy also.
