[QUOTE="Victim, post: 4591771, member: 78"] Huh? Encounter powers are generally much weaker when they miss compared to at wills, since you're out not only the action but also the power (some dailies have Reliable or Miss half to reduce the sting of missing - others not so much) . So it's generally better to back those bigger, more expensive attacks up with Righteous Brand. Especially when they have multiple attacks or actions to make use of that bonus more times - a ranger using some 2 weapon attacks plus Disruptive Strike or a Fighter with Rain of Blows backed with a huge power bonus to attack from Righteous Brand is a thing of beauty. That's the sort of combo that is worth jumping through some hoops to set up. Buffing an encounter or Daily attack is much better than an at will. In this case, it's more a matter of opportunity cost. Brudd probably doesn't want to use another Daily, and Righteous Brand is a clear upgrade from a basic attack. [/QUOTE]
