Weapon Damage Calculation

Base Ancient sword damage is 18-43

By your formula, it should be:

Weapon Damage Max = [43 * (3.1) + 1] = 134
Weapon Damage Min = [18 * (3.1) + 1] = 56

By using the formula I listed, it comes out to

Weapon Damage Max = [ (43 + 1) * 3.1 ] = 136
Weapon Damage Min = [ (18 + 1) * 3.1 ] = 58

Which is actually what is listed in the game.

~lem.
Actually, my formula is the same as yours, since I first calculate the Total Base Damage, counting the effect of ethereality etc. and the +1 bonus. Then, I calculate Weapon Damage using the Total Base Damage.

In my formula the +1 is not in the Weapon Damage Formula (as you list), but in the Total Base Damage formula. Do I make any sense? How should I modify the article to be clearer?
