Combination of "Maul" and "Titan's Breath"

from Elemental Forums

Game version is legendary hero 1.3.

The games I played with 'Beastlord' trait. I found out that bear will keep mauling the target knocked prone by Titan's Breath until the enemy is dead.

The cave bear I used once mauled a group of Pack Drake from full health (about 210 hp total) to die using this method. It also worked on bone ogres too. I think perhaps the knocked prone targets have zero dodge?

It is pretty fun to watch. but I don't know if is it intended, and does it work on other units with maul ability against knocked prone target.

PS. The bear I used in this play through is lv15 with 91 accuracy. It usually mauls 2 or 3 times on average in normal combat.

There is a maul debuff mod somewhere if you feel it is needed.

It is arguably working as intended, since standard attacks on prone targets are supposed to be guaranteed to hit. An enemy knocked over by a club's bash or by Titan's Breath is a prone target, and Maul makes a series of standard attacks that ends when an attack misses or when the target dies. Since it's targeting a prone target, it never misses, so using a Maul-enabled unit against a prone target is essentially a guaranteed kill.

Yeah, I discovered this when I summoned Uterar's bear pet from a hero named Najran i think..? There was a unit that got hit by bash Then i had it attacked via bear pet. Oh. :O Unlucky for the enemy because that unit was high on armor and got killed. lol Maul hit for 3-10 damage each time xD

 

It looks like it's working as intended to me.. So if you see an mixed ogre/bear or troll/bear army. :P Careful.
