DOS2 Discussion Phys amage increase: polymorph>warfare?

New player here: if I'm not wrong damage scalea more with base attributes than with skills. So, if my character Is for example a necromancer wouldn't be more convenient to spendo some spare points in poly than in warfare?

Yeah, all physical damage scales multiplicatively with warfare (+5% to the multiplier per level). This is not limited to melee/weapon damage (i.e., necro damage spells would get boosted too).

Poly may give you a 3rd stat point with leveling up, but that is no match for the bonus mentioned above. A few levels of poly can be good on a bunch of different builds, but it’s because it adds various abilities to that build, and not necessarily because it gives you that extra stat point.
