Haste, scales by your allies damage.  Bless scales by your allies damage.  It's almost like the very concept of a support character doing better with allies around that do more damage is something that doesn't bother you till it comes to warlords.  Oh and don't go saying bless and haste aren't at will.  They might as well be when you can cast them every combat of every day.</blockquote>
