So - this is with sanctuary and protection. Watch the difference between no unholy and unholy. That's the only change in combat.

Your heavenly wrath maims Darzan!
Errantry is supposed to improve wrath. Yet, it's doing squat.
Davairus 0 , 0 , 0 . Sanc, protection, saves, and probably also a low roll compounded by you lacking a decent affbreak (an assumption, but if you don't have 14-15 affbreak, after reading the helpfile that says it has "dependency", then you definitely shouldn't be complaining about its damage).
Marest 0 , 0 , 0 . "As a solitary knight-errant, paladins can commune wrath with greater power than
Davairus 0 , 0 , 0 . So I take it you have never heard of the floating belt
[reply to Marest]Wrath also has secondary functions - it casts curse, saps movement points. Even if you completely cock it up, its not doing "squat".
they are normally capable of."
You're saying I should be doing mauls without errantry then?
Since when does wrath sap movement points? That's new on me and certainly not in the help file. As to curse. Yes, it does curse, as a secondary affect that doesn't happen all the time. So not something to rely on mid combat against a class that can beef up their damage from "mutilates" to "***Demolishes***" with a single spell.
Also - the dependency -
"Dependency: low"
You're saying for a "low dependency" I need to have 14 to 15 aff breaks? Which, by the way, dependencies don't stack, so you're looking for me to have one of the best afflictive break items in the game to make it so "I can complain about damage".
So yes. My paladins abilities are doing "squat" next to his dark knight abilities. See above log for any other questions you may have.
And to be clear, since you missed what I was saying entirely - I wasn't saying that 'wrath wasn't doing squat', I was saying that errantry wasn't doing anything to improve my wrath damage. As it is supposed to do.
Oh yes! And two low rolls back to back. Devastates. Maim. Totes worth it for two and a half rounds of lag. Cool beans.
