[QUOTE="Lord Sessadore, post: 4811181, member: 57255"] Yes, RoB with a high static damage mod is better than No Mercy, most likely. Another very important thing to remember is that RoB can be used every encounter. That could be once a day (which is the limit with No Mercy), or it could be five times a day. If you get to use RoB five times a day, it's nearly impossible to argue that No Mercy is comparable anymore. The only way you get that much mileage out of No Mercy is if you miss four times before hitting, but that doesn't increase its utility at all, it just means there were four times when all that you accomplished was not wasting a daily power. If I got one power and I had to choose between Rain of Blows and No Mercy, I would choose No Mercy at low level (because 7[W] is massive at low levels), but I would choose Rain of Blows at high level. Seems a little backwards to me. Edit: this is my post number 1337 :D [/QUOTE]
