while we're at it could we make [[ray of judgment] actually banish everyone it hits to hell?
anything less is insinuating that the power of God is not absolute and is very offensive to me and deserves a perma-bad.

A Palm Strike in many forms of Martial Arts can be used to attack various points on the body. Yes, it is usually used in Tae Kwon Do as an attack directed at the face, but in that case, it would cause:

Bleeding
[[Blurred Vision]
Dazed

Not just Bleeding.

You really want to revamp the skill so that an Assassin can drop an Ele hex on you w/o even being an Elementalist secondary?

Also, the current usage is fine, imho. After they rebalanced it to reduce the lenght of the Cripple so that you actually had to invest to get more than a second or 2 it helped nerf-bat the imba.

Cause having to use crit strikes on a sin is a real punishment, rite? Don't get me wrong, the 17 seconds of cripple were retarded. Funny though.

Sin secondary. No investment. Touch Skill, so it cannot be blocked, and is not affected by Blind condition or chance to miss. 5sec Crippled target, 4sec cooldown to re-use. Should have clarified before.

Change it to

[[Palm Strike]: Target touched foe takes 10...54 damage and Bleeds for 1...8 seconds. This skill counts as an off-hand attack.

That would make more sense?

Thoughts?
Palm strike has many variations in Asian Martial Arts.
You cant really generalize it for the Korean ones, since the Assassin in GW seems to be a mixture of elements from Chinese/Japanese/Korean culture.
