Toy hammer explosion is strike and the damage is dealt in multiple instances (which can all crit).
but does it also proc with skills?
As far as pelt and rodelero skills goes yes, they increase the counter.
The reason he manages to burst that fast in the beginning is because him and 5 clones use two shooting stars in a row, resulting in a â â â â ton of hits that end up procing toy hammer 4-5 times, the whole thing being increased by the strike debuffs.
Seems kunais doesnât increase the counter so sadly he canât abuse the high hit count to proc toy hammer with those.
donât clones not work with shooting star?
after a recent update, Shinobi clones can use Pelt and Rodelero skills i believe
i really wanted the armor break from Pelt 3 though, and with my lack of AoE, the lv 15 SB helps when im in a party.
armor break can make up for the clone dmg technically, if you do 2 butterflies and 2 stars in your combo after theyâve been armor breaked and youâve stacked strike dmg you probably can out dmg some clone builds
Also if murmillo c2 is jank you can always go for shinobi on rank 9 and it still be viable
true, but i dont really have any plans to go Shinobi, im banking on Murmillo being a strong pick all the way to c3 
I mean if it is it is, its great scaling on a few of its skills and they have overheat as well. Iâm making a dragoonc2 and this pelt/rod/murm for when rank8 comes out. Its a lot of work but iâve got a month and no other games iâm playing
i feel you, i started my path to Murmillo the moment they announced Rank 8 Swordsman, Murmillo was the first character i ever wanted to make, just a 5 second clip of it was enough, i knew what i wanted.
But since i had no idea when they would release Murmillo, and the fact that i had planned to make a guild, Templar became my main.
But then they announced Rank 8 and everything changed
Saw it in this old trailer from 2014 at about 1:30
I feel like i canât stand the game without having butterfly. I feel like 75-175 would be so slow without it
Its like my choices are
take forever from from 75-175 or take forever 175-225 both feel crappy
trust me, get rodelero c3 asap, its worth it
Probably, well i did
pelt 3 squire 1 to get to fencer at lvl 170 going full con. i could only imagine how much faster it would be now going str xD but iâll try doing rodc3 first
As promised, heres a little damage demonstration video running the 130 dungeon:
Seems like it NEEDS murmillo to be really decent. making butterfly + shooting star essentially 2.5x stronger is kinda huge. Not to mention the fact you will be adding murmillos high base attack skills into the equation and another 50% strike bonus.
lets put this into perspective, you did 240k with butterfly/shooting star combo
240k x 2.5 x 1.5 = 900k, so just being lvl 1 murmillo with maxxed out butterfly/shooting star attribute youâd be doing 4x your current damage. Not to mention you whiffed some of your crits so it could easily be over 1m in quick burst. HOWEVER that boss is weak to strike AND is weak to the fact you have 450 extra dmg on plate mobs(pretty sure its plate) so you were getting the max dmg you could do on it i believe.
But harpeia you ended up doing the 3 debuff combo later on and did 150k+ in your rotation so essentially that would be close to 600k on it after murmillo
also in reality, youâre missing dmg from attributes so you currently canât see your true potential. 50% is ALOT to be missing but in general we all donât have 120m to do lvl 1-100 for both butterfly and shooting star.
