Thunderous Strike question

Grim Dawn Gameplay Discussion

Hi there,

i have a question about primal strike’s damage when using the transmuter.
Damage (without torrent) at max. primal strike+storm surge:

250% weapon damage
210 physical + 75% = 367,50
115-214 lightning+42-92 = 157-306
58 electrocute/sec
114 bleed/sec

So using the transmuter does ‘-75% weapon damage + -38% total’
So this would be:
137% weapon damage (250-75-38)
227,85 physical damage
97,34-189,72 lightning damage
35,96 electrocute/sec
70,68 bleed/sec

Is this right? Does the weapon damage go down from 250% to 137% ?

I’m pretty sure it goes to 175% weapon damage because 250 - 75 = 175.

Well, now it’s actually 300% because it was buffed in a recent update. So 225% weapon damage.

Someone correct me if i’m wrong.

It’s 225% weapon dmg(from Norzan said the new patch buff it, 300%-75%). But -38% total dmg will apply at last.

Example : You have 100 weapon dmg + overall dmg from the skill 300 = 1002.25 +300 = 525 dmg.
But -38% --> your dmg will be like 525(1-0.38) = 325.5

So your weapon dmg will be 2.25*(1-0.38) = 1.395 = 139.5% weapon dmg
compare to old patch 1.75*(1-0.38) = 1.085 = 108.5% weapon dmg

To be more clear. X% total dmg is something really matter with your overall dmg because it’ll calculate last and affect your dmg the most.
