More Questions: What about the skill Vengeance?
Will Vengeance work with a bow? Will one point add 70% fire, cold and lightning damage to the ranger's arrows and 20% to his A/R?
Will one point in fire, cold and lightning resists synergize an additional 10% to these damages? Or is it 10% of the original 70%?
Last (for the moment), will one point in Salvation synergize 2% to ALL elemental damage, including poison (a nice possibility of preventing healing)? Or does it just add 2% to the above mentioned elemental damage? And, is it an additional 2% or just 2% of 70%?
I am guessing the questions' equations would look like this (assuming that Vengeance works with a bow)--
Will a paladin with one point in Vengeance, Fire Resist, Cold Resist, Lightning Resist and Salvation receive:
70%(fire, cold & lightning damage) + 10%(f, c, & l dmg) + 2%(f, c, & l dmg) + 2% (poison damage) = 82%(f, c, & l dmg) + 2%(p dmg) ???
or will he receive:
(70% x 10%)2% = 78.5% + poison (yes/no?)
Again, all of this hinges upon the question of the applicability of Vengeance. If Vengeance doesn't apply, this has all been a fantasy and an exercise in futility. Do paladins have a fantasy skill? Or possibly a skill of futility? Hmmm . . .
I would like to thank all of you who have contributed/donated to this thread and I anxiously await your responses to these questions as my little ranger is poised on the brink of making the career choice of his life. :rolleyes:
<pauses to contemplate> A vengeful little ranger . . . sounds like it could be fun.
