Lose the 50% bonus damage, give the enemy -90% defense. I mean, it's a bug.įirst I thought the "solution" to the 50% nerf (and I al with it? It was a bug, it should have been fixed decades ago) would be using Conviction. Let's not get into whether you like it or not, or "it's been around so long they might as well leave it". Nor ammend the skill descriptions to reflect this. It's a bug that they did a piss-poor job of fixing, and didn't bother actually fixing in Resurrected either. It's that USING Concentration (still not putting points in it, so different mechanic from Synergies) gives Hammer (and Hammer alone, no other spell benefits from this) 50% of the damage boost it should give to physical skills (so 30% at level 1, 37.5% at level 2, etc). It's not that using Conc alone gives Hammer +50% damage.

I misread the "50% efficiency" thing, that's my bad. Afaik, even level 20 Concentration would still be +50% to Hammer. So it's not a bonus to the skill like Vigor, and it's not Concentration's effect either (which is +60% at level 1). Simply for USING Concentration (which, remember, only affects phys damage) at level 1, Blessed Hammer gets a +50% dmg increment. *Blessed Hammer gets a further +14% MAGIC damage for each point in Vigor/Blessed Aim. Now to the bug itself.Ģ) Blessed Hammer gets a dmg increase from Concentration. So well, that first, just to get it out of the way. And more importantly, I think it doesn't decrease Poison Res. Similarly, Conviction states "-X% defense and resistances to enemies", but I'm pretty sure it only works on PHYSICAL defense (is that even important? Can spells miss, since in this game Defense is only evasion rate.). Might and Concentration (and I assume Fanaticism too) only increase PHYSICAL damage, magical is not included. Might, Concentration and Fanaticism all say "+X% Damage", which is in fact wrong. But it wasn't in the beta.ġ) Issue with text in skill descriptions. I'd appreciate your help with those points.Īlso, I know this bug comes all the way from OG, but that's kinda the point, I assumed it'd have been fixed.

I was never a heavy pala user in OG, let alone hammer, so apologies for information I may be lacking.
