Weapon Damage vs Max Stamina Confusion

wharf

So I crafted 3 new pieces of gear today just to try some new pieces out. I switched from a medium helm, shoulders, and 2handed sword of Morkuldin to the same pieces with the same traits of Night mother's gaze, except I switched from 2 handed sword to 2 handed mace. The bonuses I was getting from Morkuldin were Max Stam and stam recovery...and the bonuses from Night Mother's Gaze I am getting now are a weapon critical and a weapon damage bonus.

I was confused to see that when I switched by weapon damage remained the same buffed up at 3953. No abilities were changed and when I added the max stamina bonus from morkuldin it brings my weapon damage up to the same amount that the actual weapon damage bonus from Night Mother's Gaze does. From my understanding you get abut 3/4 of the actual damage from a max stamina bonus (967 max stamina) that you do from a weapon damage set bonus (129 weapon damage).

So my question is why is my weapon damage staying the same when all things remain the same except for I'm switching out a max stam bonus for a weapon damage bonus? I'd figured my weapon damage would be higher with the Night Mother's Gaze on, any help would be appreciated...maybe I'm missing something.

roughly 1k stamina = 100 wpn dmg.

But the reason whyy your not seeing any difference is because you get 5% passive from using a sword, a mace instead has 20% armour pen.

Nightmother is also bugged at the moment its not showing its dmg buff in character page.

Tooltips are quite bugged regarding exchange of gear that gives WD to gear that gives anything else.

Tooltips were never very accurate in ESO...
