Message: <blockquote data-quote="Verision" data-source="post: 4396680" data-attributes="member: 72236">Well, I WAS in the "add 1d6 to the power's damage once and only once" group, but then I did some research and realized I was probably wrong. You see, whenever I find a magical item whose description/function is in question, I look for a similar item (an item that has a similar effect) that's approxametly the same level. So, let's all open our PHBs to page 249 and look at our friend the "Horned Helm". Horned Helm-It comes in level 6, 16 and 26, just like the shadowfell gloves. -It adds extra damage; 1d6 @ 6, 2d6 @ 16 and 3d6 @ 26, just like the shadowfell gloves.-It's property reads: "Your charge attacks deal an extra 1d6 damage". I think we can all agree that you get to add the 1d6 damage to the each and every charge your character does while wearing the helm. (It's not a Daily Power, just the property of the item.) So, if the Horned Helm adds 1d6 damage to a charge, every time you charge, then it seems silly that the Shadowfell Gloves, which are the same level, would only be able to add 1d6 damage total per day. So, I'm switching sides. When you use the Daily power of the Shadowfell Gloves, the next arcane power you use does an extra 1d6 damage every time it does damage. If you're smart, you'll use the Shadowfell Gloves with something like the Falming Sphere that can deal damage more than once. Now the only thing that might alter this is the fact that the gloves change the damage type to necrotic, but I don't think that's a large enough bonus to make the gloves only do the extra damage once.</blockquote>
