"You do your STR mod in damage" - add bonuses?

[Obryn]

Looks like not much does add.

That would be the take-away from all this, I think.

Lyrandar Wind-Rider PP. Flat +Con to damage on Lightning attacks. There are about a dozen things that add to flat damage, but that is probably the most impressive one.

Inflicting vulnerabilities is another way to deal more damage with static stat damage.

Headsman's chop adds on a hit, not on a damage roll - so it works with Brutal Barrage, but not with Cleave.

by you and many others...

i disagree strongly. 7 guaranteed damage when needed is better than 39842875482422374928 damage with a 65% chance to hit. It even gets better with the +1d10 force upgrade vs insubstancial enemies.

I agree however, that it is maybe too situational useful that i would consider it a good 3rd at will. And even here it competes with heroc effort. (not that the old MM realy competed with other powers)


I pray that any wizard will be able to chose MM as a cantrip like the mage does by default.

- I agree that it isn't that bad. I even chose it as 3rd at-will for a human wizard.
- But I would have preferred it two target two enemies (like it did in the red box).
- 7 damage also means a 20 Int while I more often start with an 18 in my highest ability.
- I hate to take a feat for just 1 power for fighting very specific enemies.
- It isn't a can-trip. It is an automatic class feature for a mage. He cannot choose to take a cantrip instead.
