Holy Warth

Sup
Ive looked at the monks skills and found a skill names "Holy warth" its on smithing prayers attribute, my question is if for exmaple somebody hit me and the dmg is 40 and i have holy warth on me, im gonna get hurt for 40-66% and the the one who hit me gonna lose that 66%? and its saying there 17 max is it mean that even if the 66% is 27 for exmaple he gonna be dmged for 17?, and another thing, its says that i lose 10 energy, and if i have 5 energy on that moment? is holy warth gonna end?

I know i made this question very long but il be happy if someone can answer me on that, thanks anyway

Holy Wrath

When someone hits you (melee damage) not casters or magic, what ever damage you got hit with 25-67% (depending on how high your smitting attribute is) of that damage is sent back to the guy who hit you. And you loose 10 energy. So IMO, if you were getting hit many times, you might end up with 0 energy pretty quick.

Holy Wrath has been changed since release, or some time after, along with retribution. They know do set %'s.

Holy Wrath deals 66% of the damage people do to you in attacks back to the person, up to XX which depends on your smiting prayers. However, you still take full damage. It's not reflected damage, and I can't think of the word for it at the moment, but yeah. 100% damage to you, 66% damage to your assailent.

Why use either skill?
They're certainly not that impressive, and if you have even one holy wrath up, you're not likely to have any energy left to do much else. However, Holy Wrath no longer ends when you're out of energy. So you can maintain 2 retributions and 2 holy wraths indefinitely.

2 skill slots taken, 1 linked attribute, no energy left, means your left with using entirely signets or adrenal skills.
