1. Intelligence Raises Dmg For Sorcery Online
2. Intelligence Raises Dmg For Sorcery Free

May 21, 2016  Fact of the matter is, that as of current sorcery is really underpowered. While your level is a bit low for the fight (I'm usually aprox level 65 by that point) sorc's are likely the real handicap. He is also a REALLY tough fight, probably the hardest in the game IMO. It could simply be that you need to get more used to fighting him. Feb 08, 2016  +2% spell dmg means that your rations are also increased by 2% The +2% spell damage does also apply to the base dmg of the spells (which would be a maximum of 2650 xD, and of course the execute dmg on his last ult shot) so. It depends whether you want 1% more AD (maybe 6 or 7 in lategame) or 2% more spell dmg the spelldmg results in higher dps. A high intelligence score shouldn't make you feel dumb. An Intelligence bonus for someone who doesn't use Intelligence for spells is not the minmaxer's choice. But it should come in handy at least some of the time. It's fine to bring up this concern to your DM out of game. Most likely, they don't even realize this is happening.

Intelligence is one of the six basic stats of DDO.

• 3Raising Intelligence Scores
  • 3.4Items

Intelligence (INT)

Intelligence determines how well your Player Character learns and reasons. This ability is important for wizards or artificers as it affects how many spell points they have, how hard their spells are to resist, and how powerful their spells can be. It's also important for any character who wants to have a wide assortment of skills.

You apply your Player Character’s Intelligence modifier to:

• Disable Device, Repair, Search, and Spellcraft skill checks. These are the skills that have Intelligence as their key ability.
• The amount of bonus spell points you gain as a wizard or artificer.
• The number of skill points gained each level.
• The Spell Difficulty Class (DC) for Wizard, and Artificer spells.
• Insightful Reflexes Feat allows Intelligence to be used for all Reflex Save rolls, instead of Dexterity
• Harper Know the Angles will add 1/2 your intelligence modifier to your damage rolls and the Difficulty Class(DC) of your Tactical feats.
• Mechanic Tanglefoot, Thunderstone, Ooze Flask, and Time Bomb use Int Modifier for the Difficulty Class(DC).
• Assassin Poison Strikes, Shadow Dagger and Assassinate use Int Modifier for the Difficulty Class(DC).
• Arcanotechnician Arcane Empowerment uses Int Modifier for the Difficulty Class(DC).

You can also apply your Intelligence Modifier to your Melee and/or Ranged Attack rolls and/or Damage rolls through the use of:

• Harper Strategic Combat I (Attack Rolls only)
• Harper Strategic Combat II (Damage Rolls only)
• Swashbuckler Tier 3 enhancement Different Tack (Damage Rolls Only)
• Mechanic Core 3 enhancement Targeting Sights (Damage Rolls Only. Only Crossbows and Thrown Weapons)

Feat Prerequisites and Skill Points[edit]

The following Feats have a minimum Intelligence Requirement:

• Insightful Reflexes Requires Intelligence 13
• Combat Expertise Requires Intelligence 13

At first level (character creation), the number of skill points given is equal to ( + Intelligence modifier) * 4.At each further level gained in a class, a character receives a number of skill points equal to + Intelligence modifier (with a minimum of 1 skill point).

Note: Even if your Player Character'srace starts with 6 Intelligence (Half-Orc), and your Player Character'sclass gets 2 base skill points per level (Cleric, Favored Soul, Fighter, Paladin, Sorcerer, or Wizard), your Player Character will still get 1 skill point each level.

IMPORTANT: Both Feat Pre-reqs and Skill Points Only take into account three sources/bonuses when determining your Intelligence/Intelligence Modifier:

• Base ability value at Character Creation
• Level-Up ability point raises
• Inherent Bonuses from Ability tomes

Raising Intelligence Scores[edit]

You can raise your Intelligence score from different sources, among them:

After installing DMG Extractor, all you have to do is double-click your DMG file to open it up. You can browse the files right in the DMG Extractor window if you just want to see what’s inside the DMG file. If you need to extract the file, click the “Extract” button on. Have a dmg file and i want to unpack itunes.

Base[edit]

• During character creation, you can add up to 10 points to your basic Intelligence score, which means:
  • A Deep Gnome, Gnome, Drow Elf, Morninglord character can start with a Intelligence of up to 20
  • A Half-Orc character can have a Intelligence of up to 16.
  • All other races can start with a Intelligence of up to 18
• At the 4th, 8th, 12th, 16th, 20th, 24th, and 28th, you are allowed to raise a single ability by 1 point.
• The ability point raises are often referred to as 'level-ups'. These increases count towards Feat Pre-requisites.

Inherent bonus[edit]

Inherent bonuses stack with all other bonuses and also count towards Feat Pre-requisites.

• A Manual of Clear Thought will raise the Intelligence score by the appropriate value. For more information, refer to Tomes. These bonuses will show on your character sheet in the Feat section.
