Questions + Idea about DD damage (in General)

Does the "Most Powerful Blow" character stat which only applies to weapon damage?

I think the answer is 'yes' so I have a follow up idea...

What if a stat called "Most Powerful Blast" was added? It could apply to all DD spells except Decay.

Or has this been thought off before and and rejected because it gave too much tactical information about the character?

Thought up before, and just not taken anywhere. I'm very much in favor of this. *snicker*. I have a good reason to be. Good idea though!

Even tho most call it a part of the FORS... which I think is very un-PC (politically correct not personal computer, or player character, or anything else you might be thinking) this is a great idea and I am all for it!

I know, I know... the biggest CoC in the game wins. Who cares? The highest x NW weapon with the highest strength wins the MPB as it is. As a MM mage I certainly do not mind not being able to compete with a single blow from CoC... I expect it!

the point of that FORS is that the math required to get your most powerful magic blow is easy...

Which is to attack a single minion character with no AC. :)

novice, think of it from a tactical standpoint like talion mentioned. If you are fighting a tank, you can usually see the amount of damage that their tank can do, so it makes it easier to decide whether or not to fight them. With mages, you can't really do that, so it would be nice to have.
Also, given the randomness factor in cb it would be interesting to see how close to perfect you can get your DD damage to be.

bart said there was a way to find it, its just some simple math thing to do with the effect of the DD.
