Possibly silly question on enhancement...

[Doc_Scorpion]

What with Fury, seems I can skip enhancing damage (at least in the early game).  The million dollar question is - do I ever need to enhance damage at all?

[Uun]

I skip it until at least lvl 22 (when you can slot lvl 25 enhancements). I wouldn't skip it entirely, because damage enhancements will add about 95% +dmg to the ~200% fury seems to provide. Also, set bonuses are nothing to sneeze at.

more damage = faster dead things = more good

 

Please don't skip damage

[EdgeOfDreams]

Put it this way: if you have a max Fury bar AND damage enhancements, you'll deal almost 4x base damage. If you have the max Fury bar and do NOT have damage enhancements, you'll only deal 3x base damage.

 

There is no reason to give up on a quarter of your potential damage output.

Well, it's pretty conclusive then...  🙂  Thanks!

Yes, you want your main attacks slotted for damage, pretty much until diminishing returns set in.  I ran SS Brutes for years.   generally even at low levels I had one acc and 2 damage SOs, 3 Dam SOs as soon as I could fit.  Good sets let you have more flexibility there.  But yes my Brute compatriot.  Enhance your Damage.  Enjoy the Smash

Yes, the Brute damage cap is significantly higher than other ATs.  I believe it is currently 650% (iirc).  Even with full fury and enhancements well into the red on Mids I doubt you'll be there without further buffs.
