Judgement and Archetypes

Do different archetypes deal different amounts of damage using the same Judgement ability, no buffs?

For example, does a Tanker hit as hard with Pyronic Judgement as a Scrapper?

If they deal the same damage regardless of AT, I will always make Brutes from now on because Fury will buff Judgement to godlike levels. O_o

Is Judgement affected by Fury? I thought it ignored all global +dam/+acc/-end and other bonuses, except for what you have in your Alpha (it also ignores Alpha's recharge).

Judgement isn't affected by buffs.

I don't think it's affected by Fury, nor is it affected by the damage scalars each AT gets.

The only way to improve on Judgement is through your alpha slot, excluding the Recharge from Spiritual which does not help.

So you can increase the damage, acc or end cost through Alpha choice.

They made it so Spiritual doesn't buff its recharge? >_>

Bleh. Now I need to switch my Nerve boost to a Musculature so I can hit harder with Judgement...

Well, it doesn't appear to be affected by my blaster's defiance, so I would be surprised if it worked with fury.

Just to note, Judgement is awesome. But please, don't let the power go to your head.

I had someone on a low damage TF team last night assure us that we didn't need to worry about extra groups, all people should hit the boss at all times because their judgement power would kill all else that came near the boss. It really didn't, and the squishies kept getting hammered because the extras were not dealt with. Remember, kids! Judgement: awesome AoE, NOT an "I WIN!" button.

Yeah but ION judgement + a VEATs venom grenade -(res) did pop all the the minions in the group, and the boss was down to about 50% or so on a Lambda run. I had to make sure my omega bomb was not wasted when the other player used his ion.

I was not teamed with you, so please don't take what I said as a personal slight. The situation (Which I will not detail, to avoid a witchhunt) involved a long string of ambushes spawned, with many bosses. With aggro managers sidetracked, they were a problem to those of low hitpoints. Judgement blasts were used, and it didn't do much to stop many of the foes. But yes, debuffs+judgement does make for a very tasty combo.

This may have been addressed elsewhere already, but I'm wondering if the Judgement powers have redraw for characters with drawn weapons. I'm guessing that they probably do, but wishing that they don't

Unless you're getting Ion Judgement, you might want to keep the nerve.
