added fire dmg question
Say you had 10% phys dmg bonus and 10% fire dmg bonus. If you added fire dmg, would that fire dmg then get a 20% bonus?

" That's actually wrong. That would mean the additive damage became multiplicative, and that would be a Bad Thing. If your attack deals 100 damage, and you have 30% added as fire damage from the gem, and then 10% increased physical damage from passives, and 10% fire as well, then the calc looks like this, iirc. first, it calcs how much fire damage it will do, from the BASE amount of physical. 100 * .3 = 30 fire damage The 100 damage is then increased by the 10% phys nodes. 100 * 1.1 = 110 The 30 fire damage is then increased by the 10% phys node, and the 10% fire node(the game 'remembers' that this damage came from a physical source, and to apply phys modifiers to it.) Note that I used the word 'increased', which means the values are added together before being multiplied. 30 * 1.2 = 36 The damage is then added together. 110 + 36 = 146 This prevents that sort of 'double dipping' effect |
