Couple of skill rants

[WarBlade]

Warblade:

Can you describe how the synergies interact with vengeance?  From the mpqs it seems that each point in a synergy would add 5% each of fire, lightning and cold damage, which seems like quite a boost.

LOL No.

Vengeance
Conviction
Meditation
Holy Shield

Pretty much all needed and pretty much all hogging the points. They might as well have not bothered with Holy Shock as a Synergy, since players will be scraping points into Holy Freeze and Holy Fire when they can. Point stretching kills the Avenger. You'd think with their bloody idiotic Paladin synergy system someone would come up with Meditation offers -0.2 Mana cost per level on Vengeance or simply cut Vengeance mana costs in half, but that would be requiring someone actually have long think about the Paladin.
