Damage

Damage Types

There are 2 main types of damage, elemental and physical. They have multiple different sub-types however.

• Elemental
  • Fire damage
  • Cold damage, which can chill enemies, slowing their movement speed and attack speed relative to their chill effectiveness.
  • Lightning damage
  • Magic damage
  • Poison damage, which is dealt as life degeneration over 2 seconds
• Physical
  • Bleed, which deals 75% of the physical damage that caused the bleed every second for 5 seconds as life degeneration.
• burn from trag oul's soul allows 75% of the fire damage you deal from any attack to be dealt to the enemy every second for 5 seconds as life degeneration, the same as bleed

Damage Scaling

There are various different things that affect your damage, including:

• Damage increased by x%
• Physical damage %
• Added physical damage to weapon attacks
• Weapon damage %, which includes your bonus from Strength, Dexterity or Energy
• Added weapon damage
• Elemental damage %
• Added elemental damage (fire, cold, etc) to weapon attacks
• Execution Damage %, adding damage if an enemy is below 35% life
• Critical Damage %, all characters start at 50% increased damage from critical hits.
• Added skill damage
• Your weapon's base damage
• If the skill you are using is a weapon based skill or not
• Bleed chance

So, the steps for calculating weapon damage skills is as follows:

1. Take your base weapon damage and add your added weapon damage.
2. Multiply that by your total % physical damage (stat bonus, %weapon damage and %physical damage all added together)
3. Add your flat phys damage and flat elemental damage
4. Add the skill damage
5. Factor in the %weapon damage modifier on your skill
6. Factor in your damage multiplier (crit damage, damage % and execution damage added together)

As an example, let us say that your base weapon damage is 5, and you have +10 added weapon damage. You have 20% physical damage and +30 physical damage. You are gaining 30% damage from your stat bonus, and have 50% weapon damage. As well, 20% elemental damage and +35 fire damage. You are using level 6 combustion, which adds 36 fire damage and has a weapon damage modifier of 100%. Your chance to crit is 100%, and you deal base damage on a critical strike (50% added damage). You have 20% damage increase, and 30% execution damage. You have 100% chance to bleed. The enemy we are attacking has zero resistances, no debuffs and is at 20% of their life.

First, we take the 5 base weapon damage and add the 10 added weapon damage to get 15 damage.

Then, we will add together your 30% stat bonus, 50% weapon damage and 20% physical damage, totaling 100%, and multiply our damage by 100%, giving us 30 damage.

Next, we will add the 30 added physical damage increased by our 20% physical damage, giving us 36, and resulting in 66 damage so far.

Next, we will add the 35 fire damage increased by our 20% elemental damage, giving us 42, resulting in 108 damage so far, 66 physical and 42 fire.

Next, we will add our 36 skill damage increased by our 20% elemental damage, giving us 43 damage, resulting in 151 damage so far, 66 physical and 85 fire.

Next, we will factor in our skill's weapon damage modifier, which is 100%, meaning there is no change. Still at 151 damage.

Lastly, we will factor in our 50% critical damage, 20% total damage and 30% execution damage, being 100%, doubling our damage to 302, 132 physical and 170 fire.

We will also deal 75% of our physical damage every second for 5 seconds after the initial hit, being 99.

So we will deal 302 damage to the monster instantly, 132 physical and 170 fire, and 99 damage each second for 5 seconds given these circumstances.
