Your English is JUST FINE! Believe me!
I have 8 children, 3 are "adults", and you write English at least as well as they do!
Remember the "which monster is MOST HATED" thread, where I translated the title to German and added it? Somebody posted a correction and I amended the post. I would have had no objection to people posting in German (in an English thread) if they included their best attempt at English along side their German posting. I hope to learn German, I hope to help people improve their English. This 'helping one another' is one of the tell-tales that distinguishes a "gaggle of gamers" from a ->community<-. What makes the German here hardest to parse is the 'chat speak' of writing 'nen' instead of 'einen' ('typing reduced 40%' instead of 'damage reduced'... ^^ )
(btw 'english' is spin on a ball, English is a language; 'english' get used making trick shots in pool/snooker/billiards, and in bowling. It is the 'noun' vs. 'proper noun' capitalization rule. Considering that all nouns are capitalized in German, whereas only proper nouns are capitalized in English, I'm actually surprised at the extensive use of lower case for nouns, proper or im-, in this forum).
As to pierce, 68% (skill) is not bad, especially if the arrows have 'monster flee', since new monsters will be in front for the next volley.
Unless you have a special effect like Lightning Fury, I'd value 'monster flee' above 'pierce'. One hard point in pierce + +skill items should suffice. If I recall correctly, each time a pierce happens, the chance of a succesive pierce drops (120% goes to 90% goes to 60% goes to 30% goes to 0%.. I don't know the real numbers and picked a 30% drop to illustrate the meaning of my words.)
countdracula:
the extensive use of lower case for nouns is mainly a cause of the forum users' lazyness. (The short forms too). It is bad language, but faster to write.
As you say 100% pierce is not really necessary.
If the skill is unchanged in ce, you should have 86 % pierce with a slvl of only 20. That can easily be reached with +skills.
With slvl 30 the chance is 92%
With slvl 60 you reach 100% skill pierce.

:) Thanks a lot! unfortunately my english teacher has never noted this :D
but back to topic:
What you mean with "the chance to pierce drops with every succesive pierce"?
If you have 95% pierce the chance to pierce is in a row of 5 monsters: 95% (1st), 90% (2nd), 86% (3rd), 81% (4th), 77% (5th). With 100% at every check there won't be any drop :)
One can easily see, that in 1 of 5 the pierce-check at the 4th will be negativ and the dmgoutput is reduce by 20% this throw...
Just a few percent lower than 100 are a enormous loss of dmg.
That high dmg of Lightning Fury only depends on a high chance to pierce. A Java need to have 100% pierce in my opinion.
countdracula:
but a bo ama with multi shot does not need 100% pierce. If The Arrow pierces 3 times, it should be enough in most cases. Because if there is no enemy to hit, the pierce does not matter.
