Hello !
I was doing some build crafting when I stumbled upon a problem.

As you can see in this picture, my flurry skill will deal 1981 damage totall ( atleast I asume thats what the number adresses, the error could be here for all I know )

According to the wiki bleeding damage follows the formula 22+ (condidamage * 0.06 )
that lands me with 22+(1006*0.06) = 82.36 damage per bleed, per second.

So with 8 bleeds, each with an durration of 4 seconds, with my logic the skill should deal 82.36*4*8= 2635.52 damage in bleeding damage.

The ingame calculation is 655 damage off! Surely something must be wrong either ingame or with my calculations. The same problem occured when calculating other bleed skills but this one stood out the most, is the wiki page formula outdated?

Help!

Tool tips are often wrong, ignore them if you want actual data. If you want to test if wiki is right go to something that you can land that on, and count the damage that you did from the combat log.

Also, dont you have to account for the monsters resistance into the equation too?

Pretty sure condition damage ignores armor and condition armor isn’t a thing, which is why even pre condi buff leveling as condi was often pretty powerful because of the low health pools in leveling areas.

Tooltips are a mess.

Use the combat log to see actual damage.

If there is still a problem post another SS and i’m sure we can figure it out.
