Hi all,
I'm an Xbox NA player without access to the PTS. After reading the wording for how damage calculations will be changed, I'm completely lost. The wording is vague and impossible to understand without additional context. Here is the wording:
"Player abilities that scale with your offensive stats, such as Weapon Damage and Max Stamina, will now dynamically scale with the highest of your offensive stats"
So for a stamblade for example my understanding is that damage for my physical abilities is currently determined by my max stam and also my weapon damage. Adding to ether of those stats increases the damage of my physical abilities. I understand that other things can boost damage also. (Such as crit, having more pen, and CP) But what I don't understand is how the new damage calculations will work after the update in late March. Basically what does "highest of your offensive stats" actually mean? Will damage on my skills now be determined by just weapon damage, just max stam, or still a combination of both?
Also, my understanding is that even damage for magic skills will be determined by the answer to the above question instead of by the current method which would be max mag and spell damage. Thanks for clearing this up for me. The answer will obviously affect how we all build a toon moving forward whether it is PVE or PVP.
