<DIV>What I have seen so far.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>Palin's Vengful Strike gives no Str or Agil when active and therefore no AC bump of any kind.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>Aegis of Hope does not appear to give any AC bump of any kind.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>Herions Protective Devotions cancels Aegis of Hope, previously it stacked, and resets Both timers.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>Display of Devotion says it gives STR in the spell description but I do not get a STR bump nor does anyone else I cast it on.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>Timers on Buff Spells are volitile.  If you recast them when the buff is active it drops buff and resets timer, perhaps this is intended, just different.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV>

<P>In case you have not seen it, I was in Fallen Gate last night working on one of the memorial quest from SH and as I was killing zombies I realized that Oath Strike did ZERO damage to them. Talk about a heart breaker, but at least they were grey and no threat.</P> <P>As a level 31 Pally I am begging, PLEASE, don't take my Oath Strike away...</P>

there is an issue with Oath Strike range as well.  Right on the guy and It says out of range. <div></div>

<P>                  I too have noticed that oath strike isn`t  hitting as much and is doing poor damage. The timers on our buffs are screwed up too I saw and did a bug report on them last night.</P> <P>            I  made another post concerning damage last night an the replies I got seemed like nobody else was affected. My combat arts are missing alot. And by alot i mean If I am fighting a solo mob = lvl I am burning though 3x the mana I usually did because I am missing so much more and because the skills are hitting for way below minimum listed damage. I even asked a few paladins ingame if they saw a difference in their damage but all said no. Maybe I`m just the lucky one to recieve this blessing of being lvl 34 and doing lvl 25 damage.</P> <P>                One good thing I did notice though about the patch was when I pull mobs I can run full speed now instead of being locked in my combat stance and crabwalking like before. Makes pulling alot faster now.</P>

I think I may have seen the same thing SunTsu, recently while tanking Giants, I would pull them and when the battle started I had to move up every time and pretty much stand between their legs, what a view...:smileymad:
