[QUOTE="On Puget Sound, post: 4402495, member: 68988"] First of all, you should never be hitting a foe you haven't first cursed. That adds +1d6 to damage on every attack, and is easier to set up by far than sneak attacks. Plus, when those foes drop (whether you kill them or someone else does) you gain a pact bonus on your next turn. Your eldritch blast does 1d10 + 3 or 4 (for con or cha) + 1d6 (curse) = around 13 average. Rangers' twin strike does 2d10 with no Str/ Dex bonus, +1d6 quarry, for 14.5 average, but requires two to-hit rolls to do that; it will often do only 9 average damage as one shot misses. Rogues' Sly Flourish hits for 1d6 (light weapon) +4 (Dex) +2 (Cha) +1d6 (sneak) = 13 average. So your standard at-wills are not far out of balance. Your encounter powers mostly do 2d8 and your dailies do 3d6 to 3d10, all adding a stat bonus and a curse bonus d6. Looks to be in line with what the other strikers have. [/QUOTE]
