Pcombat vs Offensive

[horseradish]

Anyone have any calculations or calculator links on the dmg gained to your total BH increase when you put in a pcombat versus an offensive charm? i wasnt sure how much dmg you got off the synergies versus a pcombat

[saellison]

You only get bonuses from synergies for hard points you put in them. +skills on your synergies will not add to BH damage. I think thats what you were saying.

I think he is confusing synergies with added damage from +skills to the Concentration aura. I just tested this with the German calculator; it seems that Pcombs add about twice the dmg of Offensive skillers @ +5 and 2,5 times with +10 Pcomb/Offensive sks. However, since Pcombs cost ~Ist on Eu Ladder and Offensive Sks only Lem-Pul, if you are a poor player imo Offensives are a much better choice.

and with combat skillers you get the bonus of a better holy shield

On higher levels, the %block from HS suffers severe Diminishing Returns. Only duration and defense increase somewhat noticeably.

more defence is always a good thing, and higher duration can never be bad
