Per the discussion in my practical rune guide, we believe that physical attack is added to the skill damage calculation at a certain percentage. This percentage is not currently known for sure and would require more testing (probably on low level characters with small numbers and low damage ranges).
Based on Morgan's test you may want to remove the "(probably on low level characters with small numbers and low damage ranges)". Adam does not fit that category.Originally Posted by Klepto
By the way. Thanks for putting that guide together. It is very informative and well written.
What I mean is it should be able to be replicated for main hero characters at low levels (e.g. Adamanti shouldn't be the only one it applies to). All you'd need is some reliable way to add straight physical attack to a character (such as chips) and then conduct a battle and jot down the numbers seen during that battle. Repeat 10+ times for each configuration and you'll at least have a general idea.
Maybe it's different on each hero.. i don't see a difference on Blood tbh..

A good way to test might be to have Bane and Adept equipped, then remove Bane.
I do not understand how that would prove anything. Blood does have a Physical attack so when you remove Adept his power will go down. The question is if Adept also increases the Skill attack.
I think your getting your runes screwed up. Bane is physical attack, Adept is Skill attack. Dawn Proposed to remove Bane, Not adept.
Yes, Adept DOES in fact increase the skill attack. Dawn makes a good point simply because if you have Blood outfitted with a Rightousness over level 7, he starts with 100 Moral, ever increasing with ONLY SKILL ATTACKS. The only way for blood to fire a physical attack at this point is if Calvin Demoralizes him, or if he counter attacks. If your simply looking for a power gain and not actually interested to see if the power gain actually helps in battle, then Blindly throw a Vengence on him and don't care. When I had originally commented on this post, I was one vengence short, and would have liked to know if that Vengence rune could have been better served on another hero, not Blood, and replaced it with just an Adept, no bane. It seems that as long as you don't miss the power number that comes along with that bane rune on blood, you could take it off, only losing a small amount of skill attack. Because, for some reason, Bane does actually add small amounts of Skill attack to the hero it is on. Only a very small amount though. Test it out for yourself, it's simple.

"Thank you for your constantly supporting on Tynon!"
You are correct. I had them backwards. I should not post when I have had very little sleep.
Skill attacks are combined physical and skill attack.
That Is my understanding.
What I Speak is the Truth...
What YOU delete must hurt you
when i add bane (lvl8) to bloodstorm it does about 10% more damage..(40k---->44,5k) on the same opponent testend mutible times in arena..
