Berserk and Crushing Blow

[Tommi]

Something I was not clear on, and was wondering because I'm making a berserker that will be using Ribcracker.

Crushing Blow is physical damage.  Berserk converts the physical damage you do into magical damage.

So, for example say that you score a hit that does 250 damage, and trigger a crushing blow that does a percent resulting in another 100 damage.  Does berserk convert this into 350 magic damage?  Or is it 100 phys / 250 magic.

Actually, Crushing Blow is not technically damage. It just modifies the target's life amount. See details here:

Thus, it would be 250 magical damage, which is normally affected by damage reduction effects. Then Crushing Blow reduces life by 100, which is affected only by non-negative physical resistance.

Cheers,
