Crusader Stike dmg type

Unread post by Steve »

A Crusader adds his WIS bonus to damage (divine) up to 1/10th the Crusader's Paladin levels (max +3 damage at level 30).
Considering that Divine dmg type doesn't stack, and that both Divine Might AND Holy Sword add Divine Might dmg, I'd like to make a request that the Gods of (un)Holy Balance discuss and judge whether it may be fair to CHANGE the Crusader Strike dmg type from Divine to...Positive.

Said of the Inner Plane of Positive Energy:
It is power incarnate.
It is radiance beyond compare.
It is life realized to the fullest.
Doesn't that sound TOTALLY like a Crusader Paladin?!?! You know it does!

Cause I'm pretty sure no one would support making Crusader Strike magical dmg. :naughty:

Thank you.

Divine damage does stack.

I regularily use both EDM and Divine Wrath on my MaA build, and they stack. 100%

There is a distinction between damage bonuses on a weapon and damage increase. This may be why Divine Might and Divine Wrath stack though both Divine type damage.

Because otherwise, I'm working with the wiki definition of:
A weapon can have multiple damage bonuses; those of different damage types stack, while those of the same type do not

Well either way it's positive damage now so it'll be fine.

Looks to me like the wiki wasn't uploaded properly and this thread forgotten.

Considering I currently run a crusader, I can confirm the damage is still positive damage.

The damage is now divine. It does stack with holy sword though, I don’t have divine might so not sure if it stacks with that.
