[Vokrii] Spell Damage Formula
Good morning!
The purpose of this post is to learn about the formula used to determine Destruction Spell Damage, specifically how certain buffs add up, so that I can predict how much DPS my character will do before I sit down to roll my new character next week.
Relevant Mods are Vokrii, Andromeda, Imperious, Wintersun
Race is Altmer
Spell in question is Sparks (8 damage per second)
Assuming Destruction level 100:
+40% Destruction spell damage
(racial perk) Elven Supremecy - +10% Destruction
(Hermaeus Mora) Wrathful Dieties - +20% Destruction
Total = 70%
Amplify Destruction Enchant from gear - Assume +30%
The Atronach (Andromeda) - +25% Spell Magnitude
The Apprentice - +50% (assuming successful roll) Spell Magnitude
Sorcerer's Robes - +25% Spell Magnitude
Total = 100%
(Hermaeus Mora) A Studen't Tower - +50% Novice Spell Magnitude
Augmented Shock - +40% Shock Damage
Elemental Conflux - +20% Shock Damage
Total = 60%
I'm pretty sure that bonuses from different categories will multiply with each other but I'm unclear whether certain bonuses that seem to boost the same stat might also stack that way. Like, I'm pretty sure Enchants from gear are a different category than bonuses from perks.
Base Damage = 8
Variables can be:
d = Destruction= 70% = x1.7
e = Enchants = 30% = x1.3
m = Spell Magnitude = 100% = x2
n = Novice Spell = 50% = x1.5
s = Shock = 60% = x1.6
If I'm wrong about which bonuses stack additively, please identify new variables in the comments.
This is where I get stumped because I don't know enough to put the formula together myself. Can anyone help me out?
Thanks! :)
