Questions from Original, Answered

Two questions were included in the entry when it was added. They have been included here, as I don't know the answer. Good questions that could enhance the article, though the spell damage formula could use its own page. OK, enough musings!

Regarding Evaluate Intelligence forumula:

does the above for eval = a flat # damage added or is it a % added to base damage?


Regarding the Inscription Bonus:

question is does the 10% add the % from the base damage or the % after all the previous factors are figured in?

Here's some more... does SDI affect Weapon specials at all? Spellweaving? Necro spells? Holy light?

Any additional Spell Damage increase whether it be inscription items or eval all add on to the base. it is not exponential. --Yimmy January & February 2009
