You have to calculate first weapon damage, as I do, and then apply other modifiers. It is like this:
Total damage = [ (base damage + 1) * ((all damage modifiers + 100%) / 100) ]
Where [] is for rounding down, and the key here being that the 1 is added before the damage is multiplied. When I checked with various weapons with enhanced damage prefixes in the game, it seemed consistent with this formula rather then the one on your site.
Also, maybe you should mention that when Ethereal items get their base damage, the value gets rounded down after multiplication by 1.5
:blink:
Of course, I coulda missed something (like always) and totally made a fool of myself just now!
~lem.
Attack Damage = Weapon Damage x (1 + All Weapon Dependent Bonuses / 100) + All Independent Damages
Gonna add that formula later. Makes it easier to understand.
