I have 6000+ Weapon Damage in dungeons, but my light attacks only deal 2000 damage. Why?

    Just a thought. Your damage has to cut through whatever resistances your foes have first. Dungeon foes generally have about 18000 resistance whereas non dungeon foes usually have about 9000. Penetration is what cuts through foe resistances. How much penetration do you have, and are you able to buff that with major breach? When fighting a dungeon foe, my characters usually do with with about 18K penetration (including major breach).

    i think it was update 35 they changed light attack scaling, they dont scale as much from your dmg stats anymore

    and as ArcadianPaladin suggests enemies do have armor which can mitigate dmg unless you have high penetration
