when the rule of three takes effect does that mean that weapons mastery will take as big of a fall as i think it will.

Why would it? Weapon Mastery doesn't modify your damage value; it REPLACES it.

For a similar reason, Defend isn't affected by Ro3 either...

Veloxiraptor is correct. In fact, for awhile there were a ton of messages debating whether the rule of 3 would affect defend. WK apparently stated in the warlord forum that defend replaces, not modifies the defense value. I believe they said the same thing for weapon master.

thank you very much I am VERY glad to see that defend is still good!

Since it replaces instead of modifying it a 10-11 defend becomes really useful for healing things. If you want the high defence, just do a daisy chain, and when you need to heal, turn off the high defend and roll a 3-4 to heal.
