Hey all

As it says on the box

Tool tips give the basics of a skill.

They show the basic damage as well as a few other details but that is about it.

I personally would like to see what a skill would hit with power added to it

So, let’s say you’ve PVT, zerker or what have you

Scholars runes and traits to boost weapon x you’re using

I think it would be nice to see the damage combination altogether on the tool tip rather then the basic with a right click on the skill

So, with what I described above – looking at the tool tip

Base damage + power + rune + weapon % boost = current outgoing damage

Same thing could go with conditions applied from attacks

Thoughts and ideas welcome

I"m pretty sure tool tips change the damage done based on your armor. I just checked on the character I’m playing. I took off my shoulder armor and my damage on the tool tip went down.

Cheers, there’s some hope then! XD

What are your thoughts on the rest though?

I’m pretty sure most of that stuff comes through. I haven’t tested everything, but you should probably test it before you ask for it to be added to the game.

Runes’ and sigils’ effects are already reflected in the tool-tips. So, I guess your great idea was shared by the Devs!

Confirmation of the fact Devs listen to the playerbase! =P
