Yes.
Quote:some questions on DS:
Does DS and CS double (or quadruple, if both chances applied) only the physical part of the damage? Eg. you're a zeal-paladin using Baranar's Star and equip with some DS items. Only the physical damage part of Baranar's Star will get doubled if the DS is applied.
Only physical damage.
Quote:What if you use Vengeance, does that double the physical damage of Vengeance (part of which is then converted to elemental damage?) but the elemental damages are not doubled?
No. Vengeance doesn't convert any damage. It just adds a percentage of your weapon damage in the form of elemental damage. Deadly/critical strike doesn't affect your weapon damage, so it won't affect vengeance elemental damage.
Quote:What if Barbarian's Berserk ==> converts 100% physical dmg to magic dmg? Does DS double the magic damage of Berserk?
Yes. The doubling occurs before the conversion to magic damage. The same applies to other skills that convert damage (lightning bolt, fire arrow, magic arrow, etc.).
Quote:I think certain unique items have 100% deadly strike, does that mean that item always does double the physical dmg part of that unique item or are the other elemental damages (properties of the weapon) get doubled too?
Deadly strike applies only to physical damage.
Quote:Some questions on CB:
it is applied/checked per blow. Does each hit of Zeal or Strafe consider as one "blow"? That is, if your Zeal/Strafe had 5 hits, is the check for CB done 5 times or only once and then applied to the 5 attacks?

The check is done per hit.
