Title: Does Psychosomatic Predation damage bonus proc on Yell?
Post by: haze1103 on July 22, 2021, 04:01:29 pm: Yell is weird in that immunity to fears do block it, but it also does not trigger Aphobia. I'm wondering if the x2 damage that applies on "frightened enemies" applies. My Spear/TC build could use the bonus damage.

How am I expected to spend 15 AP on a skill that will give me a few percentages of extra damage that's only really worth it with high TC, melee weapons, and a prior fear effect?

I guess it pairs well with mollies, but I'm not wasting two slots on Frighten and this thing. I guess maybe if I had LoC it would be pretty good? Fear an entire group, then target them one by one with this.

I guess it can be fine for the final enemy but not sure I want to take up a spell sllot just to do extra damage to one guy when TC already is incredibly strong in 1v1s. You can also say it’s good for bosses but 2 innervations for one boss is a big no no to me especially if you can get the boss alone from the start of the fight.

I doubt it would end up being the most overpowered build in the game.
