I am currently leveling up a dual blade tanker. Can anyone tell me the bonus to +ToHit and +DAM after pulling off the Empower combo?

Thanks

Off the top of my head, no.

BUT, if you're curious, you can monitor it yourself. Look in my sig for the Combat Attributes Monitor mini-guide.

Set it up with what you want - including the damage and tohit bonuses - and watch it in real-time.

Thanks for the info.

Does anyone know if empower stacks on itself?

thanks

Empower should stack with itself if you can get it off again fast enough. However, be aware that you cannot start a combo immediately after completing that same combo... you have to toss in a non-combo attack, start a different combo, or insert a short pause (a second or so? I'm not exactly sure how long) before starting it over or it won't register.

Also, Empower itself is only a 10% damage bonus... 20% comes from Blinding Feint whether you're using the combo or not. That extra 10% can be handy early on but once you get better attacks you're probably better off using Blinding Feint alone rather than Empower and following it up with Attack Vitals or Sweep. Nimble Slash and Power Slice just don't have the DPA that the higher level attacks do and Empower is entirely single target so it doesn't help with holding aggro on a crowd. I normally skip Weaken too but on a Tanker it might be worth using since it does reduce enemy to-hit and defense for a while and might help with holding aggro (sweep would probably be better for that though).
