[QUOTE="Lore Raithbone, post: 4266510, member: 60920"] Well, level 30 Ranger: level + magic + feat + strength = 15 + 6 + 1 + 7 (16 base + 6 stat ups). Total to-hit of +29; Orcus has an AC of 48, so to hit him on a 2 we go: Warlord +5, Armor Splinter, Flanking (though if both Armor Splinter attacks hit, flanking is not needed) or Combat advantage. Die roll of +2 (1 is an auto-miss so we don't care about it). Yup, exactly like hong just said. 41.812033523% chance of 16 attacks; 37 damage per hit (1d10+7(str)+6(magic), 2W gives us 2d10+26 per hit, or 11 avg + 26 = 37 avg damage per hit. 37 avg x 16 gives us 592; this math does not include, say, being a Divine Trickster and using your re-roll ability (I believe they get two). That raises the probability as well; frankly, a level 15 power that does over 200 damage is stupid, even if its a daily. Sure, it spends an action point, but its not like those are any kind of finite resource. Basically as long as you miss on a 1, 2, or 3, the power is balanced. If you only miss on a 1, its broken.
