Many guilds have multiple ways to deal this damage type. To keep the list readable, I'm using the following Key to show what is and is not possible.
Key:
- A = AOE Option, spells and abilities
- C = Collateral Damage (Single target spell, which deals lesser damage to nearby targets)
- H = Heavy TM option available
- M = Multi-strike option available
- P = Pulses, non-cyclical option available
- R = Reactive damage (Shield - on hit of the target)
- S = Single Target option available
- Z = Charged shot (prep and then fire when you're ready like dragon breath)
- (U) = Non-corporeal/evil/Undead Only (or any subset of the same)
For the modifiers (like armor piercing) assume single target unless modified with A(ie: AM for AOE M for Single Target)
Bolds for signature abilities or spells.
- * Cyclic, transformation, limited, etc...
- ** Technically Barbarians have Whirlwind, but it's not useful for raw damage vs training.
- **** Requires the empath to shock themselves - Shock dramatically changes playstyle and limits several abilities.
Attack Effectiveness
- Barbarian Combat Maneuver - Damage: Increases damage from the Barbarian only
- Divine Radiance: Only applies to hits from blessed weapons
- Khri Prowess: -OF is PvE only
