Hey, was just wondering about the curse upgrade that gives -10% dmg. I was wondering if it was even worth it, considering the fact that if the enemy's dmg is down, curse won't affect them as much will it? Wasn't completely sure about it, thought I'd ask for the forums opinions. Thanks for any input.

Think of it like this:

Their damage > Your health bar

So, even if you reduce the damage -10%, it'll take more hits overall to kill you and thus more overall damage inflicted on them.

But, with Parth's 'controversial' build, there is no point in using curse. You're better off using another attack skill. :p

Ok that was a quick question haha... Another one :p Let's say a warrior has 250% extra dmg and 110 base dmg. Is the curse upgrade going to take away 10% to make it 240% dmg, or 25% because 25 is 10% of 250? Or is it just going to take 11 dmg off of the 110 dmg? Hopefully this isn't a loaded question xD

Too much math. An upgrade is an UPGRADE and you should always want dat u nub.

I didn't really get what you're trying to say, but it's going to take away from the base damage. Also, bonus damage and base damage are linked. You have a number, which is then multiplied by the bonus damage you have to display your total damage.

So, if you had 300% bonus damage and 50 damage, it would show on your stat screen as 150 damage. A quick way to test this is with rings/jewelry. You will see how that 3.0 damage on a ring extrapolates into something more than 3.0 due to bonus damage. :)

People should just test it because it is all theory. Too bad free respec weekend just passed I forgot to try this.
We just want to know the reflected damage not the damage that hit us (because we will hide behind warriors anyway).

Curse good for pvp war, but weak as by one. Even you guys must come closer and look at them to give them curse. OR it just ineffective skills.
You can be very useful mage and people need you while your build is really for team.
