59861, Amplification of helpfile on Divine Retribution.
Posted by Paladin on Wed 31-Dec-69 07:00 PM
Could someone go into more detail on this? I mean, does it do damage only? Does give a malediction in some way? Does it do both? Thanks in advance.

Divine Retribution

Syntax: commune 'divine retribution'

This supplication brings retribution against those who find it necessary to murder beings who walk in the light.

It deals damage that scales with the evilness of the victim.
59865, Is this mechanically correct?

Isn't it linked to their pks?

Or is that what you mean by evilness?

But yeah, that damage can get quite nasty. I think I saw Ravon take an oblit through protections once?
59875, Correct. (nt)

I used divine retribution on Satebos strolling down eastern and hit him for a scratch.

hehe,

I had that sup as both selfren and sarien - I too was disappointed when it hit for like a "decimate" next to my Unspeak wrath :P

I had kind of ruled it out as a result.

When he got up into the 200+ PK range, Hunsobo would take probably double the damage that Wrath would inflict, if not more.

I remember getting dispelled (lost protection and stone skin, I think) and then ERADICATED the next round before I could flee.

Made solo raiding really tough, even with Emperor powers.

Not divine retribution... it is fine

But the Watcher
