What's a Far Cast Amazon?

I've heard of this with regards to PvP I guess but I don't see a build guide for it, I'm guessing someone standing far away and shooting ... or?

As I understand it, a CS/LF Lightning Javazon using a hack that allows CS to be applied from afar. It's cheap. :evil:

There are legit ways to farcast, but it's looked down on and does require practice and some skill.

^ is right
A hack/mod people get that allows them to cast charged strike from a distance.
Difference between the mod and legit is, the mod you can be at a certain distance and you'll fc and hit them and the legit way is you need to have a namelock.. I think. xD
 
Re: What's a Far Cast Amazon?

You probably don't see a guide on this because it's a mod (like the above have said) that must be downloaded to work. ***EDITED BY DACAR*** As with all other mods it is looked down upon and considered completely Bad Mannered. It is also highly use at your own risk because if/when D2 detects it, you will most likely be banned. It is currently undetectable.

I was under the impression that it was possible, although difficult, to FC without a hack. The difference being that without the hack you can only hit people on your screen and it's hard to pull off. With a hack you can hit them off the screen and it's 100% success rate. Either way, it's a bug or a hack, so don't use it. :tongue:

Oh, and Jade, I'd remove the names from your post, it's frowned upon here to even mention the names of hacks, since it can be seen as promoting hacks.

I edited JadeSelket's post. Remember that it is OK to discuss the ethics of mods and cheating in game, but please refrain from posting "how to's", links and mod names.

Thanks

no it isn't. Baal and mephisto drop more then fast enough using normal charged strike, certainly when you use lots of -res. Making the effort to far cast and then risking to just thrown a javelin just isn't worth the time you may save.

Far cast is just a nice little thing that is fun to try out once in a while, though it's much to hard to use frequently.
