    Flash does not scale with level

    Thread Title:
    Flash does not scale with level

    ISP:
    Comcast

    Type of Internet Connection:
    Cable

    Internet Connection Speed:

    Character Name:
    Arctic Fang

    Race:
    Au'Ra F Raen

    World:
    Goblin

    Class/Level:
    Paladin/60

    Area and Coordinates:
    Ward 1 The Goblet (13,11)

    Party or Solo:
    Party, 1, it was a Paladin (VIT buff)

    NPC Name:
    None

    Monster Name:
    Lv. 1 Striking Dummy

    In-Game Time:
    Please list the in-game time that the issue occurred.

    Steps:
    Obtain a level 60 Paladin with an i135 weapon and an i190 weapon.
    Obtain a second Paladin, level 50, with an i135 weapon.
    The level 60 Paladin equips the i135 weapon.
    Have each walk up to the Striking Dummy, with their backs facing it.
    Have each Paladin flash once. Examine the enmity bars. You will find only a hair difference in enmity generation between a level 60 and a level 50.
    Ask the level 50 Paladin to autoattack once, and then quickly retreat. This will pull enmity in the level 50's favor.
    Ask each Paladin to exit combat and return to the dummy.
    The level 60 Paladin now equips the i190 weapon.
    Have each Paladin flash
    Notice that the level 60 Paladin has about 30% more enmity than the level 50 Paladin.
    The level 50 Paladin flashes again, this will pull enmity.

    Scaling with iLVL appears to be linear, while scaling with level is nonexistant.

    Probably because the stats that enhance it's potency scale in much larger increments across 55 ilevels versus 10 Character levels.

    Think about it. If it's primarily bound to a primary stat like say STR or otherwise something like the weapon damage and then enhanced further by STR or another stat, you are likely going to see potency ramp up more when you increase the item level by 40% compared to just the character level by 20%.

    Flash is based on weapon damage stat. This has been known for a very long time
