The total Combat Maneuver offensive bonus received between Patron's Blessing and the Paladin's actual Combat Maneuvers training cannot surpass what the paladin would receive were they to be fully trained (twice per level) in Combat Maneuvers. The Attack Strength bonus and SMR defense, however, is uncapped (in relation to the Combat Maneuvers bonus, but the Attack Strength and SMR defense bonus is also still restricted by the spell ranks formula noted above, which is capped at level). |

* Combat Maneuver calculations that do not directly use AS, such as CMAN skills, will not provide benefits beyond 2x training. |

If the paladin uses any [[enhancive item]]s that increase Combat Maneuvers skill, the benefit of the spell is still limited to full (2x) skill training. If the paladin's actual training plus enhancives already exceeds 2x then the spell will not increase effective CML ranks. Any additional bonus would only contribute to Attack Strength. |

Patron's Blessing bestows a refined combat knowledge upon the paladin, increasing effective Combat Maneuvers ranks for purposes of the Combat Maneuver List (CML), SMR Defense, and Attack Strength (AS). The caster's effective Combat Maneuvers rank is increased by +10, with an additional +0.75 for every Paladin spell rank beyond 11.
The Combat Maneuvers bonus scales up to 100 Paladin Spell Ranks. There are two benefits:
- AS derived from the bonus combat maneuvers. This is not capped the same way that the next benefit is capped.
- Combat Maneuver calculations that do not directly use AS, such as CMAN skills, will not provide benefits beyond 2x training.
Lore Benefits
Training in Spiritual Lore, Blessings provides an additional bonus of +1 Combat Maneuver rank at 3 Blessings Lore ranks, to a maximum of +17 Combat Maneuver ranks at 187 Blessings Lore ranks, on a seed 3 summation. This benefit is still subject to the 2x CM skill cap for the spell on CML/SMR (but not AS).
