Changes between 1.10s and 1.10

[mattis]

The damage formula has changed quite a bit but I haven't been able to figure out what it is yet. From an experiment with a dexazon I know off-weapon ED is not superpowered like it was in the beta, i.e. it does not form a new multiplier. Still, the damage formula is very different from 1.09.

My thrower is somehow doing 5.1k max double throw damage and 7.6k with my might merc. I've been running the numbers in various ways but I don't see how to get that high of a number. I'm considering only my cruel stygian pilum which does 81-291 damage. I have +62 max damage coming from belt, armor, and charms. I have 171 dex, 49% ED from armor, and 158% ED from throwing mastery. I have double swing maxed which gives a 160% ED synergy bonus to double throw. If I calculate as in 1.09 I would expect to be doing (291 + 62) * (1 + 1.71 + 0.49 + 1.58 + 1.6), which would give a max damage of 2252, far to low. I conjecture that the 160% synergy is a new multiplier, i.e. I suspect the damage should be (291 + 62)*(1 + 1.71 + 0.49 + 1.58)*(1 + 1.6), which gives a max damage of 4387. The amount of elemental damage on this character is roughly 200, so again this number is too low by around 500.

The very large boost from the might aura (a 50% increase in actual damage) is hard to account for.
