How does extra damage on monster types work?

[vhnh167 284]

Hi,

I have a question regarding extra damage (from skills) on different types of monsters. Today I tested two shaman skills: Dark Wave  and Scratch . According to the description, Dark Wave gives 175% attack power boost and 50% extra damage against mutant and normal monsters. Meanwhile, Scratch gives 190% attack power boost and 50% extra monster damage boost. Theoretically, if one's attack power is 1000, Dark Wave should deal  1000*1.75*1.5 = 2625 damage, whereas Scratch should deal 1000*1.9*1.5 = 2850 damage. However, in real-world tests, Dark Wave always has a slight advantage over Scratch when applied on the right monster types (mutant and normal). Why is this the case? Is it a bug or is it the way elemental damage works?

@Overlady did say once that there will be a guide on how elemental damage works but it hasn't come out yet. Would you kindly give some short explanations? 

 

Thanks in advance!

Hey there!

Specific monster type damage bonus is the last boost to be applied, you will have a directly boost on everything, even in your Force Orb boost.
