How exactly does damage conversion work?
Hello, I'm wondering if anyone knows how the game's damage conversion logic works.
Is damage conversion something that is calculated AFTER all other damage modifiers? For example, if I take a bunch of nodes that give + xx% Physical Damage, but then also pick up the node that converts 50% physical damage into Rend Damage... Does Physical damage get converted into Rend damage BEFORE or AFTER Physical Damage modifiers?
- If Physical damage modifiers are indeed calculated FIRST, then converting Physical > Rend damage would be a nice juicy damage boost. This is what I am hoping for.
- If physical damage modifiers are calculated LAST, then the + xx% Physical Damage modifiers would have a significantly lower impact, because 50% of it is converted to Rend damage (so, 50% less Physical damage would get boosted). If this is the case, it would make me reconsider choosing those nodes.
So, does anyone know???
Thanks in advance! :)
