I’m leveling a Lich and started wearing the Staff of Perserverance. it gives me significant increases to my skills that deals necrotic damage (ie. transport goes from 1975 to 5300 damage.)
I don’t understand where this bump is coming from? The weapon itself only has 30 spell damage, and 32% increased necrotic damage. if i take a ring off that gives 30% necrotic damage, my damage only decreases by a few hundred on Transport. I’m using the necrotic node on transport btw… Is all of this damage coming from the 30 Spell damage? It also has +1 to Necrotic Skills, but I thank only affects the spec trees, right?
Transplant gains damage from spell damage at 250%, so yes, that flat 30 damage on the staff is making a big difference compared to an only 30% increase from your ring.
Flat damage makes the biggest impact on your damage, not increases. You have lots of increases, including the skill itself having a modifier for added damage. You have few sources of added flat damage, so those make the biggest impact. 30 base plus 200% increase is 90. 30 base + 30 flat and 100% increase is 120, see the difference?
