paladin questions

I read on the other forums that when you use paladin divine sacrifice or smite and you are dual wielding you attack with both weapons and get the smite/sacrifice bonus.

Is this still true with the dual wield nerf?  Also with double strike can you double strike smite and sacrifice like monks can doublestrike death touch?

when u use ds/es, in the past 1 becomes 2 since the ds/es is applied to both the main and off. if i'm not wrong, with the new changes, your offhand offhand will not always proc it. however, zeal can make the main hand proc. if this is what i gathered, you can proc ds/es 3x if u really lucky

eladrin confirmed monks can get 3 tod if i recall correctly

Yep, I saw 3x 300pt smites the other night in ToD (on a poor Orthon no less) while using my gf's Pally.

Saw quite a lot of double smites, hard to tell if they were from doublestrike (Zeal bonus) or the off hand. I think it was the off hand, as non crit smites I was seeing a lot of double 99dmg numbers.

In theory, a level 20 Paladin with all the involved two weapon fighting feats, while under the effects of their Zeal spell, can :

Use Divine Sacrifice/Exalted Smite and see its damage number, as well as their other tasty post-weapon damage numbers, pop up three times.  (Main Hand + Off Hand Proc + Main Hand Doublestrike Proc).

Main Hand - 100%
Off Hand Proc - 80%
Doublestrike Proc - 10%

With the above stipulations, and provided you hit the button at the right time in your attack sequence.

I still prefer the old method, where I didn't have to worry about "whiffing" with the off hand.  Double Crit-Smites were almost assured, and Zeal made me feel like I wasn't swinging through molasses.

I get 3 tod's often the odd 4 x tod's and have had 2 5 x tod's before on my monk. I hope they don't fix it.

I agree. I've had 3 ds go off on my paly when she was still twf. But the old mechanic was better imo.
