The Blood Thorn & Shockwave Totem
|
Hi,
Just curious, by why doesn't The Blood Thorn's +100% Increase Physical Damage apply to the physical damage of Shockwave Totem? It doesn't state that it's "melee physical" which would make sense as to why it wouldn't apply, but it's just overall physical damage. Thanks! |

" I believe in this case the 100% increased physical damage modifier is local to the staff, meaning it only applies to the actual physical attack damage of the staff itself. Designer of Unending Hunger and The Craving divination card.

You are correct, Vibe. Works exactly the same as any other weapon.
Rule of thumb: if a modifier can apply locally, it is a local mod unless otherwise specified. Weapons deal Physical Damage, so unless it says Global Physical Damage, it's a local mod. |

Of course...Had a little brain fart on that one. Thanks!

" Understandable. The "+% physical damage" on rustic sashes has the same wording, yet it applies to all physical damage - since of course it can't be local. So thinking that Blood Thorn's mod might be global is not totally absurd. Bird lover of Wraeclast
