Paracelsus Gem Damage corrupted!

Hey all, a friend and I were experimenting with amulet with the brand spankin new Paracelsus gem - problem is...it seems bugged! We experimented it comparing it in various different gears. Here is the proof!

1) Gears with no Pet
Attachment 108207

2) Gears with Pet (LOKI)
Attachment 108208

3) No gears or Pet at all
Attachment 108209

After testing the first two equipment setups it seemed that the amulet added more damage when the character had more total damage (Loki's strength and damage bonus) however after seeing that the naked toon had more damage than the geared toon it fuddled us completely. I'm sure this is a bug and further investigation is needed.
Credits to Lambofgodddd for discovering this.

The actual stats don't show until it is equipped. The para stone's damage gets multiplied by your bonus damage before it is finalized.

For instance, if you have 400% bonus damage, the first stone will actually give 30 additional damage (7.5x400%) once it calculates out, and a second stone will actually give you 8 damage, not the 2 it reads on the description.

This means if you have a setup with only 200% bonus damage, the total increases will be much less.
