issue with greater dragon mark of storm

[ex666]

built up a lvl 20 half-elf sorc for the new mod and was doing 500 ish damage on a failed save now after the new mod it is hitting for around 100 ish. what happened ? are enhancements and potency not working on it cause the metas seem to be working. was this an intended change or what?

noticed the same thing. my lvl 9 half elf air savant is hitting for 25 damage with the dragon mark. Im not happy its totaly borked and it was hardly over powered before.

I started my own thread about this, hadnt noticed yours at the time. hell theres probly only us 2 that actualy play electric speced half elf dragon marked sorcs, its not exactly what u call power gamer material.

I concur with your diagnosis. enhancements items and metas seem to not be applied on the 3rd tier dragon mark of storm.

i totally agree with both u guys, i made a half-elf sorc pre u9 just to have some fun with the lighting storms and I believe too they are not not being affected by meta-magics + enhancements + items. If you read the storm description, they do like 50 damage outdoors and 30 damage indoors, which is exactly what they do now only difference is there seems absolutely no way to increase their damage. Before it wasn't uncommon to hit for around 150-200 and now you'll be lucky to actually kill anything with the storm.

I made a thread about this just last night, and all I want to know from turbine is if this is a bug or this is how its gonna be working from now on? I'm hoping its a bug, because if not ...... investing in 3 feats is about as expensive as it gets for doing only 25-30 damage a strike on a spell. If it stays like this, this would no doubt in my mind be the most useless 3 dragonmark feats you could consider taking on any build.

Plz fix this !!!
