Synergies and practical checks
- Redemption: +30% Damage per Level
- Fanaticism: +10% Damage per Level
- Unlike Diablo II, where each blow costs you a share of the damage it deals, it costs a share of your life. No block, resistance or Damage Reduced lessens the cost.
- Its blow is Diablo II’s Sacrifice with the Short Sword every Paladin starts with, growing each level. Your weapon’s Attack Damage multiplies it, and it can critically strike.
