+damage% on primary weapons

[DaMay]

Hey,

I hope somebody can answer me this. The shown dps on weapons is only the dps calculated on base damage * attack speed (e.g. 200-400 dmg 1,3 attack speed => 300*1,3 = 390 dps)
Furthermore weapons can have like +100-300 lightning damage which is not included in the shown dps, right?
In addition to that weapons can have stats like +40% damage. Since this is not shown in the dps amount, can this stat be like...imba? I mean 40% is a huge amount.

And if this is correct, does the +intelligence factor (for me as I am playing wizzard) only improve the base dps (390 in this example) or is the lightning damage and +40% damage also included when calculating the total damage?

Wrong Like the rest.

 

[DaMay]

So extra damage% and extra lightning dmg etc is already included in the calculation of the shown dps?

 

[Bluesman05]

Yes its already calculated on it to give you the dps that is shown on the weapon.

Maybe someone can help me out on this example right from the AH:
1h Mace
Attack Speed 1,2
Base Damage: 496 - 1083
Arcane Damage: 244 - 616
+35% Damage
Shown dps: 947,7

496+1083 / 2 * 1,2 = 947,7

This would prove my theory

Base damage includes teh Arcane damage and the 35% daamge.

1h Mace
Attack Speed 1,2
Base Damage: 496 - 1083
Arcane Damage: 244 - 616
+35% Damage
Shown dps: 947,7

496+1083 / 2 * 1,2 = 947,7

So the 496-1083
atk speed
and dps of the weapon are the values taken into account the magic properties in the list below.
So the base damage 496-1083 is the total of what the base damag eof the weapon was before you ID it + the arcane damge and the 35% damage.
if it had an attack speed modiiyer that would be already be taken in to account for the attack speed listed under the dps.

 

[Holzroller]

The 35% are calculated in the base damage. Compare it to the "white" item that it is based upon.

ah I see, so this isnt a "base damage" but the total damage of the weapon. thank you guys very much!
