I just picked as my loot for SiniSister the Circlet of the Scarlet Moon. This bit of kit says that it enhances powers tagged as "fighting" with 25% Energy Strength and +8.2 offense.
Well, I put it on, and it says it's now enhancing my Shadow Bolt. Not my bite as I'd hoped, or any of my other powers. I don't seem to be able to see what powers are tagged as fighting before putting the item on, which is a bit awkward.
Anyhows, my Shadow Bolt is not doing any more damage than it did before. In fact it is completely unchanged by the experience, so far as I can tell.
From what I seen Energy strength is really an energy cost modifier (look at travel powers description they say -15% energy strength when I read them last)
As for +8.2 offense that a little bit of extra damage (only problem is you most likely lost the same bonus or more due to the drop in your super stats).

I think it means energy builders.
