Hope you guys found this helpful - would you be interested in an educational video breaking down how we actually calculate Magical/Physical Damage and how scaling affects it? Let me know! Big love ❤

[@frenonheim]

this is phenomenal, thank you!

I got you brother! 🙏

This is great. I do feal the need to point out that spells like blood stained blade, divine strike, both work differently despite being worded very similarly. Blood stained blade is considered buff weapon damage, meaning that it is added before your combo and impact zone multipliers. however while divine strike is also 5 add damage, but it isn't buff weapon damage, meaning it's added after combo and impact zone multipliers. (I'm mainly pointing this out because a lot of people don't know they are different). Because of how divine strike works, you don't actually have a section for it in your calculator. Divine strike would be added in-between gear weapon and phys power bonus. You also are missing impact zones entirely. I understand that adding them for every weapon is a pain in the ass, but they make a big difference, so adding in an option (if you can) would be useful. The full weapon damage formula is (Base damage + buff weapon damage) * Combo Multiplier * Impact Zone Multiplier + Gear Weapon Damage + Divine Strike Damage * (1 + Power Bonus) + Additional Damage * (1 + Hit Location Bonus) * (1 - Damage Reduction * (1 + Damage Reduction mod) * (1 - Penetration)) + True Damage.

@@snowywhistle2114 thanks for your comment brother! I’ll definitely consider adding both impact zones and combo multipliers; only issue is that so many weapons have such differing values for each! Perhaps I’ll duplicate the initial row a couple times and add 2 columns for manual entry of the impact zone and multipliers. How does that sound?

[@snowywhistle2114]

@@JarPapa I'd do it myself if I knew how. I may take the time to learn and report back with something later. Manual entry would be amazing tho if you'd be willing to set it up.

What about phys/magic penetration?

[@Chadward_]

I'm a bit confused by flamewalker damage on this calc. The spell says it deals 5 damage per 0.2 seconds however I'm getting 1.9 per tick from the calc, 3 damage, 21%mpb, 0 add, 0 true. Is that supposed to be 1.9 on top of the 5 base so 6.9 per 0.2 seconds?

[@serviettechaude]

Hello, nice job ! I dont understand why true damage bonus is affected by spell scaling ?!?

[@mikahoolwerff3563]

if i understand ur question right, then it isnt. true damage is always just plus 1 dmg regardless of where u hit em, what mdr the have or what kinda spell u use as long as it deals damage.

[@JarPapa]

@@serviettechaude hello my friend! Unfortunately all damage sources are affected by scaling. True damage, however, is the only damage source that isn’t affected by locational modifiers or your targets resistances. Just say your spell has 100% scaling and you have +1 true, regardless of whether you hit them in the foot or the head it’ll deal 1 damage. If you had 50% scaling, it would deal 0.5 damage etc. Hope that helps answer your question, thanks for tuning in!

[@United_States_of_Villa]

Is there a way to figure out how much dmg BOC does with each weapon? trying to figure out if it is better with staff or crystal sword.

[@trevorlahey9037]

Is there a reason you don’t have shadow touch on here? It’s a fairly unique source of damage and health that often confuses people.

[@JarPapa]

@@trevorlahey9037 it has zero % scaling so it’ll always do 2 true damage and heal 2hp (or 2.4hp with vampirism) so I didn’t bother putting it on there! Thanks for watching :)

[@JarPapa]

Appreciate you gang 🫶

[@marellius2868]

since when does true damage scale?

[@JarPapa]

@@marellius2868 for a very long time my friend! I think there’s a misconception that because it’s “true” damage that it isn’t affected my scaling, but unfortunately all it means is that it isn’t affected by locational modifiers or magic resistance. You can read more about scaling (aka Attribute Bonus Ratio) on the wiki here: darkanddarker.wiki.spellsandguns.com/Scaling#What_does_this_include? Thanks for tuning in my friend!

[@zeuscaboose7202]

I only care about armor pen lol so I think I’ll just skip this sheet

[@JarPapa]

@@zeuscaboose7202 I did originally have armour pen on the sheet but the calculation gets a bit scuffed if you enter say 20% PDR and 40% armour pen; because you don’t do *extra* damage for having more pen than your opponents PDR for example. Once I’m home I’ll figure out a more intuitive way to add this to the sheet and I’ll reply to your comment once it’s added and working. Thanks for your feedback regardless my friend!

[@artyboyy]

Armor pen takes a percentage of their total armor. So if they have 40% pdr and you have 50% armor pen, damage is calculated as if they had 20% pdr

[@zeuscaboose7202]

@@artyboyy good to know. I normally run 40% armor pen with longbow. So if they have 75% pdr they now have 30% lmao. I love ranger, I see a nerf incoming.
