Snipit: ES Orb PVP sorc: Ice Bolts vs Warmth vs T

[Zharous]

Thanks to brianc84 who caught this:

+% damage from jewels/equipment is first added to mastery damage, then multiplied by synergy damage. I mistakenly mentioned that you add synergy %cold damage and +equipment %cold damage together. The correct information is below:

____________________________________________

Death Fathom: 30% cold damage.
Ormus's Robes: 15% cold damage
Nightwing's: 15% cold damage
4 5/5 facet jewels: 20% cold damage

= 80% cold damage. With 1 skillpoint into ice bolt = 1.80 x 1.02 = 1.83 or 83.6% more damage.

With 20 skillpoints into ice bolt = 1.80 x 1.20 = 2.52.

Which translates into 37% more damage over the 1 skillpoint setup. Considerable, yes, but then consider this:

1 pt warmth, +11 skills = 162% mana regen from warmth, 15% from ormus = 177% regen
2000 mana pool = 45.8 mana regen per second
3000 mana pool = 68.8 mana regen per second

20 pts warmth, +11 skills = 390% mana regen from warmth, 15% from ormus = 405% regen
2000 mana pool = 83.3 mana regen per second
3000 mana pool = 125 mana regen per second

Which translates into 81% faster mana regeneration.
