Hi all,

I'm finally getting close enough to start planning for post-cap training. Right now I have 2x CMAN as a combination of ranks and phantom ranks from 1611 + lores. I hope to continue that while I work on other things. My question is, can I enhance my ranks above level if I'm utilizing 1611 for effective CMAN ranks, or will the enhancive ranks/bonus simply dip into the 1611 pool that cannot go beyond like-level?

Gotta make sure my CMANs and SMANs work on liches!

Thanks.

gswiki has been down.

I can tell you for 1625 and 1616 bonuses, as they are merely enhancive, they couple with the normal enhancive system (and limits) for their maxima. However, these also show up in monsterbold under the appropriate location, where as the effect of 1611 does not show up as an enhancive at all under SKILL.

I am also curious about the answer to this question.

Hate to nag - but surely a name in red has the answer to how 1611 interacts with ranks and enhancives with regard to its inability to push you above 2x per level equivalent? Many silvers hang in the balance for me, and more I suspect in the silent minority.

"The total Combat Maneuver bonus received between Patron's Blessing and the Paladin's training can not surpass what the Paladin would receive were he fully trained in Combat Maneuvers. The AS bonus, however, is uncapped." -- spell description

Where's the mystery? <level+1> x2 + 50 from Enhancive items, same as anything else.

However, if you're already fully doubled in the skill and already wearing the full Enhancive bonus, you being fully doubled in Spell Ranks will still add to your AS, since that bonus is uncapped.

The mystery is in how does it work with enhancives?

Assume:

150 Ranks trained in CMANs
50 Ranks from Patron's Blessing

When you add a 20 rank enhancive do you get:

Scenario 1 - Patron's Blessing doesn't factor in your enhanced ability.
150 + 50 + 20 = 220 CMAN ranks

Scenario 2 - Patron's Blessing looks at your enhanced ability.
150 + 32 (reduced from 50 due to 2x cap) + 20 = 202 CMAN ranks

It won't exceed the 252 maximum.

I see what you're saying. <nod> And it should be easy to test, with any maneuver that generates a [modifiers] statement box. Do one nekkid. Do one with spell. Do one with no spell, but Enhancives. Do one with spell and Enhancives. Determine.

My supposition would be that they did it in such a way that the spell happens first (giving you the potential to come up to double-trained), and then Actual Enhancives pile on after that. (In your example, you would see the 220 rank value.)

The above example is the way that 1611 functions. Right now the bonus 1611 provides is hard capped at what you could naturally train to, whether you obtain that number through training or enhancives. Enhancives will effectively reduce the bonus you get from 1611.

That being said, the cap isn't applied to AS gains of 1611.

Viduus, if <ActualRanks> + <Enhancives> goes over the 2x CM training total, Patron's Blessing neither contributes nor subtracts anything on the Maneuver side, correct?
(And will continue to add its AS bonus, as appropriate.)
