Throw the Boom/Knight's Challenge

regarding Throw the Boom/Knight's Challenge: is there a way to increase the lawful damage this attack does BESIDES increasing melee power? like 'combustion' increases fire spell power... is there something for alignment/lawful?

Eh. I never noticed that it even did damage, but 32d20 @ 2xMP is a pretty nice bonus for an agro-device. Many procs don't scale at all.

BTW, it's a bad idea to throw it for the damage when you're not the tank.

No. It says it scales from 200% melee power, so that's all it scales from.

alignment based damage counts as 'magic' damage, so anything that decreases MRR or a targets vulnerability to alignment based damage (such as FVS crown of retribution stacks or a sun domain cleric's turn bonus) will scale the lawful damage. Vulnerability (debuff) stacks work as well. If you're playing a tank, fitting these effects into your build may end up sacrificing survivability though, so use with caution

It should also scale with spell crit/multiplier, and because it has additional 200% mp scaling, also scale ride-along caster level effects tied directly to spells you cast, such as DI or EA mantle by that 200% mp (in addition to regular scaling of those abilities).
