So you're averaging a bunch of different situations, good and bad. Maybe *gasp* the skills are situational. Maybe you actually have to choose the times when it would work best, and it's not just something you can spam.

When the strikes do work, it's a -huge- amount of damage, side effects or not. It's still a powerful skill. And most warrior skills will miss a skilled opponent from time to time. I know you don't believe me about boneshatter, but I tend to think Ioanis knows a thing or two about being a mace spec. Maybe you'll believe him.

(As an aside: You're a paladin. Unless you did it all at hero, I'd bet a lot of the people you fought were higher level than you. That might matter.)

Even if your numbers were The Canonical Text Of Paladin Skills, they stack up pretty well as PK skills in my book.

> When you spend 4 weeks with the skill, waiting for a god to show up, and you blow 300 odd hours messing about you get plenty of time to test the skill. I dont post this for the fun of it.
