About Bonus Damage and Damage Stats

I was on a little quest to seek how much damage primary stats would increase if bonus damage was at 100%. One thing I noticed though was while I was using the vampire pendant as my test subject, was that there was something wrong. Here is the image:http://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/2016...7ca18545c1.jpg
According to the passive skill Damage,this is how all damage stats work (as shown in picture 2 and yes this sounds dumb and you might think this only applies to the passive skill, but StS confirmed that this is how all damage stats work)http://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/2016...b6ff9921e4.jpg If you haven't noticed it yet, I'll tell you. The damage increase is 3 times the pendant's damage and not 2 times. I was on my mage so that blood gem had nothing to do with it.

Here is another image:http://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/2016...4255f640d5.jpg In this image, my bonus damage is 105%,but provides 7.81 (thats 110% of 7.10) instead of about 7.46 (actually 7.455 but the game only goes up to the hundredths place and that number is 105% of 7.10 btw). Maybe some clarification could be done about this.

Did u consider your pet's bonus damage?

I had all of my gear unequipped, my character respeced, and no pet equipped.

This is because you didn't take base damage and damage from dex (i don't play mage don't know if mage recieves dmg from dex? because i know rogues recieves dmg from int). And base damage when you calculate comes out to be 1.00 i think (been long time i calculated).

You are right, Mages receive small amounts of dmg from Dex.

It's even weirder if you look at the damage dealt by your auto attack. Does that go through bonus damage for a second time? Cuz right now my auto deals well over than 1k damage , while my stats show 875. ( lvl50 ) . I could not figure out a way to accurately describe that even though I'm playing for almost 4 years now.... -_-.
And thats not the case with the +200% damage buff on guns , I tested both staff and gun . They all deal more than stated on the stats page.

If i may interject my friend pointed out when i ask guild abt where to put skill points on passives that
The dmg passive is bugged apperently and gives basically nth in game as a bonus (if pet is equipped) and give a slight more only if yr both gearless and petless.. thus advising me not to waste 5 points on dmg passive

Apperently according to him sts has been notified since before the lvl 41 expansion but they have done nth to fix it

As always i am skeptical...but he is trustyworthy to me ... but i havent done any research on this... respec is expensive for poor ol' me

I wanted to see if what my friend said is confirmed as well

He is right and it was announced and changed during expansion.

Until lvl56 expansion it gave +1 ... +5% damage... but % DMG is not accumlatable, so with a +10% DMG pet you get +10%... with a 0% DMG pet you could get the skill points on DMG.

Since lvl56 expansion it changed to basic damage (like chaos jewel) and therefore it is accumulated in any way.

It was %damage before, now its straight forward damage, so it should increase your damage now.

It still says % though... so how do i calculate

Its not % increase anymore. Its straigh damage increase which scales with bonus % damage and othwr sources such as damage elixirs.

Do explain not sure what scaling meant

O bhai hindi me samjhau kya? Purani damage passive me % increase hota tha, badme isko rework kiya hai, ab seedha damage increase hota hai chaos jewel ki tarha jo modify hota hai bonus % damage se jo class specific stat ya pet se milta hai.

Yeah im from the south and even though a few do speak hindi i never really learnt it srry, got an english version (i understood slighty abt half of that... learnt abit from realtives and pani puri ..... but i still dont know it much)

it does but i think it's not worth it, only gives my mage like 15 damage. i think it's better to use the skill points in masteries instead.
