 * The recharge is fairly short and the cost is not to big, this should be fairly good on anny dammage dealing class depending on the amount of precentage added , but i see some nice advantage with Elle's wich deal a good amount of dammage as it is. --Oremir 00:37, 21 August 2007 (GMT+1)

The amount of time and percentage on the skill in the image are at a given title rank, maybe It could get better.

This and "Black" Assassin skills= devastation. 86.25.26.32 11:05, 27 August 2007 (CDT)
 * Show me a really good "Black" Assassin skill. Lotus does not really much damage, and hardly nets out its energy (compared to Golden Lotus), Mantis still requires an off-hand attack, and Spider has a rather long recharge - poisoning the foe is somewhat useful though. I'll give it a try on Shiro and Varesh... --Jorx 08:51, 26 September 2007 (CDT)
 * Lotus Strike does a fairly high amount of +dmg, nets MORE energy than Golden Lotus (look at it). It's not that useful though, unless you just want to use BLS to fuel your Moebius+Death Blossom spam, which makes it much more worthwhile to use. --Kale Ironfist 10:01, 26 September 2007 (CDT)

why does it have to fucking be attacks. asura skills are supposed to be for casters. &mdash;The preceding awesome-sauce comment was added by Skakid9090 (contribs). 01:03, 2 September 2007 (CDT)
 * Because then they would look stupid for nerfing Intensity. --Macros 12:29, 4 September 2007 (CDT)

This would certainly be nasty with dervishes. VoS + AoHM + This = skyrocketing damage percentages. It may be possible to do more then 100% with higher ranks. Flechette 01:32, 2 September 2007 (CDT)
 * they don't already? fire eles are pretty underpowered in eotn imo &mdash;The preceding awesome-sauce comment was added by Skakid9090 (contribs). 17:17, 6 September 2007 (CDT)

Does this apply to bonus damage from the attack skills?

Spirit's Strength builds look mighty appealing with this. I would think they would work. I wonder if spirits would do extra damage with Painful Bond! 141.233.30.23 01:00, 9 September 2007 (CDT)
 * Probably not since it says: "Your attacks against this foe deal an additional 25...75% damage", not the attacks from spirits. --Soulflame 08:42, 12 September 2007 (CDT)
 * Yes, but keep in mind whenever one of your spirits or minions hits with an attack, you see the numbers for it. And Anet has a fairly decent history of wording things a bit off.--Darksyde Never Again 21:17, 13 September 2007 (CDT)
 * I just tried this against a single foe using the spirit Pain without the Asuran Scan and then with it applied. It does work, your spirits does the extra damage too. After a little more research it seems that Asuran Scan doesnt work together with Bloodsong or Vampirism, since they use life steal. At 12 Channeling Magic and 12 Communing, Anguish together with Painful Bond and a maxed Asuran Scan can do a whopping 77.5 damage per hit! --Soulflame 16:40, 15 September 2007 (CDT)
 * Works on minions too...10 bone fiends can make this hurt. P A R A S I T I C 01:12, 20 September 2007 (CDT)

Does this skill work wih spells to or only attacks? --Arthas 11:20, 23 September 2007 (CDT)

Does this work with Splinter Barrage?
Haven't tried it myself yet, logging in from school, haha.--BarGamer 10:09, 5 September 2007 (CDT)

Its a Hex, you would only deal more dammage to one target so i dont see it being effective in Barraging.--Oremir 17:24, 6 September 2007 (CDT)
 * For barraging, Great Dwarf Weapon would probably be more effective, but you cant self target
 * GDW beaing a weapon spell would remove Splinter Weapon. --Jorx 08:07, 21 September 2007 (CDT)

Allies?
Allies meaning everyone or just your minions/spirits

and does it include pets too
