[QUOTE="Larrin, post: 4541704, member: 55816"] To answer the last question first: don't add your enhancement damage to anything that doesn't have a damage roll. If it says damage equal to your intelligence, deal damage eaqual to your intelligence, its if its 1d6+int, THEN add enhnacements. Thats the rule of thumb that seems to have surfaced...I would claim it could be better defined (basically the enhancement bonus description mentions it being added to 'damage rolls' and nothing else). Its the same a a fighter's cleave not benefiting from his +2 axe. As for the original question.....I have to agree its really about the most powerful encounter power i can find....Burning hands does only 2d6 (though close and greater area) and force orb does 2d8 to its initial target only, then 1d10, and you have to hit with the first one (but it has greater range). I'm sure when it first came out this was noticed and discussed to death somewhere... [/QUOTE]
