Silly quesiton: How does Bonus Dmg work?

[keikali]

I can't believe I'm asking this question, but how is the bonus dmg % calculated for a mage?

Say your base Dmg is 300 and your bonus is like 350%. Its not just simple math is it?

Also is the bonus dmg already displayed on top of your base? or is that just done in the background and calculated when you use a specific skill?

It's simple math.

Lets say your bonus damage is 250% (a good number at the end game, but not max). You damage is currently 300. You add +3 more from a ring. You now have 310.5 damage. It gets complicated because stats on the ring (int and dex) increase damage as well as bonus damage (int does), so it actually goes up more. If you could find 2 items that have the same stats except for +dmg you would see it easily.

The damage stat you see has bonus damage already included into it.
