A bunch of questions

Aspect of the pack + artifact off hand - are people not in your party fighting an enemy considered allies for the purpose of damage buff?
Commanding shot - what are the damage/defense debuffs applied.
Disciple of dexterity - how does this feat work does it multiply the damage bonus you get from you dexterity ability or does it add the additional damage directly?(26 dex => 16% dmg bonus so with 3 rank feat would that be 16*1.06, 16+6 or what?)
Swiftness of the fox - does powers like split the sky proc this passive.
Can there be multiple instances of split the sky active at once?

    People do not have to be in your party for Aspect of the Pack to function. You just need to have allies within range.

    However if you are solo'ing, such as doing dailies, Aspect of the Pack will not activate with an augment companion.

    Disciple of Dexterity is a flat 6% damage increase from that stat.

    Yes you can have multiple StS up at once thank goodness. Would hate for it to change to the way Thorn Ward works now.

    Btw does Aspect of the Pack function with a normal companion? I run with a War Dog when I solo on my Combat HR and I see only sometimes does its ability prone the mob due to CA. Not sure if it was because we were both flanking the mob or whether AotP was functioning.

    There really should be an icon to designate when the buff is active on all allies.
    Our pain is self chosen.

    The most important thing in life is to be yourself. Unless you can be Batman. Always be Batman.

    I get Aspect to the Pack to work with normal companions, as long as they are in range. I just finished leveling a battlefield medic and he will stand out in no man's land out of my range. Others I've never had any problems leveling them while using pack.

    I would like to see an icon on the ones that receive the buff as well.

    I think you can notice it by the blue circles about the allies, if its there you are granting ca - so just run to enemy and look at your dog - if he has it before he can attack it he has the ca from your aspect.
    So basically you can have 10 dexterity and the 6% bonus dmg would still apply?

    Besides this i would love if anyone can tell me if the boons from RoT increase crit severity like +5% +6.5 additional + 8% aditional or like 5% replaced with 6.5% replaced with 8%?

    No, the blue circles around you and allies indicate that mobs have aggro on you. You cannot loot quest items or mount when that circle shows beneath you. You are supposed to be able to tell if you have CA by the blue circle around the mob/boss but with all the graphics issues and the mega AoE spells going off its hard to see anything clearly beneath the mob/boss. I'd just prefer an icon - not too hard to implement right?

    I agree on the icon, if lone wolf can have one why pack can't.
