Thundering Howl 1d6 damage?

[Shin Okada]

This power says,

Hit: 1[W] + Strength modifier damage. You then howl in a blast 3 that includes the target. Each enemy in the blast takes 1d6 thunder damage and is pushed 1 square.

So, this 1d6 thunder damage is not an extra damage and a separate damage roll from the main damage (1[W] + Strength modifier damage), right?

And this 1d6 is still a damage as a result of a weapon attack.

Does that mean, this 1d6 will be modified by anything which added to melee weapon damage roll?

Say, enhancement bonus from a weapon, feat bonus, item bonus to melee damage rolls, etc.

Yep, it can really add up.

 

[Shin Okada]

Thanks. It seems to be a nice encounter power indeed.

Actually, I misread one thing you said... there might be table variation on a bonus specifically to _melee_ damage bonuses applying. Weapon, enhancement, bonus for raging, etc certainly...

Of course, close damage bonuses (like the ring of the dragonborn emperor) would still apply, and generic item bonuses (Radiant, for example, or dragonshards) would work. Frostcheese still works, of course, too. Iron Vanguard and Draconic Arrogance too... all kinds of stuff.

 

[Shin Okada]

Ah yes. Right. Weapon Close, not Weapon Melee.

So no Iron Armbands of Power. But many other bonuses still applied.
