It’s all melee skills though, and probably bow skills. Unless I missed a melee/bow skill that has a lot of flat damage coming from the tree & not the weapon?
Upheaval with Frozen Collision adds +8 melee cold per point.
Swipe with Lion’s Strength give you global melee damage (flat) per stack.
Fury Leap with Warrior’s Entrance also gives global melee damage (flat).
Vengeance with Vengeful Echoes gives flat damage as well.
Didn’t bother searching for more. But I will agree that these cases aren’t really impactful enough.
You can, however, get plenty from the passive tree. Although also likely not enough for you to ignore the flat damage from weapons.
I don’t play much melee, since it’s a playstyle I don’t enjoy, so I was generalizing from my experience with spells, so I wasn’t very accurate in my statement.
@Donzpie Thank you for asking good questions. Reading this thread was really interesting and in some cases absolutely eye opening.
@ anyone else in this thread also a big thank you for the discussion. I learnt new things from you and that on itself is always something i like.
