[QUOTE="Benny89, post: 7552525, member: 6983731"] I still think additional Attack and hence additional crit Chance and additional smite and additional +2 AC is worth it. After all we all agree PAM is Great feat because of additional attack and shields are awesome because +2 AC. Haste is basicelly applying to your self another PAM, another Shield, enchanced mobile feat and advantages on dex saves. All for one cast. Imo it worth to at least increase your Chance to uphold it. Plus warcaster or res (con) will always help with buffs. It not like it will help only with haste. Also 3rd level smite is 4k8. Average 14 dmg. One extra Attack with 1st level Smite is 1k6 +2 + 5 + 1k8 +2k8. Average 21 dmg. Its also 2 more d20 rolls so if we crit that goes to 37 dmg. Od course if we crit with another Attack and we used 3rd level slot for smite with crit that is 8k8 dmg so extra 36 dmg vs 2nd levem slot for crit for 6k8 which is 27 dmg. So 9 dmg difference. But weapon alone does with IDS 15 dmg average. And extra Ac, dex adv and speed is also factor. And booming blade on PAM with war caster and relentless avenger is great. On 12 level that is 1d6 + 2 + 5 + 1k8 + 2k8 and if target moves extra 2d8. Its like free lvl 3 Smite. Even if target does not move we made it lose its turn on standing. And we can still apply Smite to that attack. Btw how booming blade extra dmg works on crit? [/QUOTE]
