Khrone 648 Posted July 17, 2020 Share Posted July 17, 2020 (edited) Actually, the true damage of Pool of Darkness at 5/5 is: Y = ((X/3)*5) X = Your magical damage Y = Total damage In normal words, every hit is 1/3 (or 33%) of you magical damage and the total damage of the skill is 166% of the magical damage (all of this calculations ignores enemy defense). Is this a lot, even if the enemies can resist the skill, run from the area or the skill simply bugs and does't work on they?

Jcbref 610 Posted July 17, 2020 Share Posted July 17, 2020 But isnt 33% x 5 165% that one % might be the difference for someone Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because I ran a test on my lock after seeing this post and these values don't match. There are a few deviations, I haven't tried at different skill levels yet though. Only at 1/5.

Yes 7 minutes ago, TheCaster said: and at different skill levels and different mdmgs? No, i only tested on 5/5 and with my magical damage, but every Warlock that i asked this said that the Pool hit damage is 1/3 of the magical damage at 5/5, and i think that it deals 5 hits to everyone :v Guys, that's not what i wanted to know >:v i just want to know if 166% of the magical damage in area is too much or not Edited July 17, 2020 by Khrone Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would it be bad or good if the answer was yes? What if the answer was no? ._. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, being the only aoe Damage ( oops debuff**) skill a warlock has, don't have a point of reference to compare it with. Maybe do a comparison just for discussion purposes with mage skills like teleport and shards to compare and contrast their damage? Would give us an idea on where the damage of the one and only aoe dd skill a lock has, stands at. Any mages here would like to pitch in?
