Default Smiter's Boon doubles Retribution and Holy Wraith damages?

Hi,
This is in regards to a 600/Smiter...

Assuming the Smiter has 16 on Smiting Prayers and 12 on Divine Favor, if the Smiter cast Smiter's Boon, will that make Retribution and Holy Wraith be equivalent to 24 instead of 16? Thereby, increasing the damage output done by the 600 for 30 seconds?


[Smiter's Boon]

Thanks!

No, Divine Favor is the bonus in healing you get from casting a spell on an Ally. For example, with 10 in Divine Favor, you will heal for (3.2 hp x 10 DI rank) = 32 additional hitpoints. So you cast Reversal of Damage on a party member, that means, in addition to effect of Reversal of Damage, you also heal your target for (32 x 2 from smiters boon) for 64 health.

It does not double the numbers of your smiting spells, just the bonus from divine favor.

smiters boon does not double damage rather the healing, the healing from divine favor is double with the use of smites boon.
