Hi,
how this build is being impacted by the recent changes to damage conversion?

Damage converted to Physical is now properly reduced by Armor. This fix also applies to Retaliation damage converted to Physical.

  • if all the flat damage converted to physical is added together, we’re probably still fine.
  • on the other hand, if each of those damage sources is considered individually, then the build would need a major revision, or it has even become obsolete, right?

Thanks!

edit: found some info here: https://www.reddit.com/r/Grimdawn/comments/7d5od2/is_there_a_basic_explanation_of_how_damage/. The flat damage is indeed added to weapon damage and then % damage applies.

edit 2: for those who wonder, Aether to Physical conversion comes form Seal of Might, at 25%. It took me long to find out.
