We recently modified where damroll is added into the combat damage calculation on SB:R. Since the revision it seems that spell damage has also been getting a boost from the damroll addition change for some strange reason. Our revision took damroll out of the one_hit functionm and placed it between the scaling calculation and the modifiers for sanc and protection spells. What I am as yet unable to determine is *why* spell damages are now benefiting from damroll.

OK, while I still dont quite understand the why behind it, Ive managed to correct the problem by moving damroll and scaling into one_hit instead of damage.
