But I can't remember (and can't be bothered to look up) when Deep Gnome was released relative to Scourge, you may have a bit of a wait yet. Yea, but deep gnome is available via MOTU/Shadowfell. Aasimar scourge and bladeforged are not.

	ManyCookies wrote on Apr 28^th, 2019 at 8:09pm: Why DI? With a x4 crit multiplier, isnt an additional 5% crit chance effectively 15% more damage on average? That should be much more than what DI gets you. Mainstat Wis is probably about 100. 100 Wis is a +45 mod So we expect DI to add 22.5 base damage. 22.5/15=1.5 1.5*100=150 So we need to have a base damage (before crits, MP, etc) of greater than 150 before 15%>22.5 Since 7[d8+3] (52.5) + 45 Wis + 20 deadly + 10 ins deadly + 4 quality deadly + 18 enhancement = 149.5...it is close, so it could go either way in practice. But...DI also adds 22.5 DC to your tactics instead of just damage, so that seems like the obvious choice.

I think you got that backwards, it's Bladeforged not Deep Gnome you can (or at least could as pre-order bonus?) get through Shadowfell.

	Turdbin, keep changing the DDO rules, because McDonalds sold over 200 billion hamburgers by changing the recipe for their Special Sauce every couple of months to keep interest up.
