The notes section says "Synergizes well with 10 Charisma due to companion nerve (+15% becomes +65%)." What is that supposed to mean? Does Hand of Vengeance synergize with 10 Charisma such that Cass does 150% x 115% = 172.5% of her base damage? If so, then why does the note say "+15% becomes +65%"? Or is it true that with a 10 Charisma Courier and Hand of Vengeance, Cass does 100% + 50% + 15% = 165% of her base damage? If so, then where is the synergy? -TC 68.6.33.147 02:54, November 26, 2013 (UTC)

Companion nerve increases the damage done by a companion +5% for every Charmisma point. Thus, with 10 Charisma and this perk, Cass would do +15% damage with guns as well as another +50% damage due to the 10 Charisma. I do not believe it stacks, so you have a result of Cass doing +65% damage with Guns attacks.

If what you say is correct, then Hand of Vengeance does not cause Cass to gain 15% more damage with guns as the page claims; it causes her damage with guns to increase by 15% of her base damage. Also, there is no synergy with 10 Charisma. I've made the appropriate changes. -TC 207.154.89.217 20:52, November 27, 2013 (UTC)
