This deserves a thread of it's own, so don't buy your fortitude yet!
When I mention fortitude does not work, I am solely talking about the Enhanced Damage from the Fortitude
O.K. I have just taken a series of tests that shows me that Fortitude does NOT provide Enhanced Damage.
I currently do 2130~2170 smite damage with holy shield and fanatcism.
Now, I went to Act 5 Hell with 3 other people in the game with me.
Next I went to Frigid Highlands
Then firstly, I saw how many smites it took to kill an Enslaved. It was 3.
Then, I took off my Archon Fortitude and attacked another enslaved. It took 3 smites to kill it.
I repeated the test 5 times, and all came up with the same result.
Now, IF the damage from my smite should be stacked by 300% Enhanced Damage, I SHOULD've killed the Enslaved with 1 hit (theory wise) but I DIDN'T.
So, I'd like to hear of people's cases when they witnessed Fortitude's Enhanced Damage making a difference.
