I have been meaning to ask this for a long time.

I made this video some time ago. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9D-BL1jJuDo

It shows me that I made 54 356 damage (by my calculations) in the screen.
You can also see a 10k crit that takes away about 1% of his hp.

And its not just that sorcerer on the video but every enemy. It shows I have incredible damage on screen but on reality it sucks.

When I do kill shot with my Warrior it shows bout 4k dmg and takes about 35% of enemie’s hp.

EDIT : I have the “all longbow arrows pierce” trait so Its not that

How the hell does the gw2 calculate the damage?

I see max 18k DMG.

And where you see 10k crit ???? 10k DMG on this video is full chain spell DMG

Being a donkeyhole aside, do you understand how it works now, 10K is the final damage of the entire spell added up, it’s accumulative. Korean MMOs \o/

I agree with you on all three points. My only questions back are;
1) Where has there been a transparency report that clearly shows, and is accurate about in game mechanisms booth overt and under the hood?

2) Where is there a mini instance of where all skills, points of interest and subtleties are made clear? Where is the clear and concise trait descriptions? it is all fine and good to state rune of smoldering increases burning by 10%, but how often does the tick damage happen?..will 10% on 1 second give an extra tick? It is all fine to say this trait gives 100% burning on blocking..but how long does the burning last?..if you block 3 times in secession does it stack the burning?..how long does that increase the duration?..or does it just reset the timer each block? How much larger does it make the ward? This trait makes wards more damaging..but how much more damaging? learning to play is only achievable when you can learn, and not kinda guess in a hit and miss style.

3) It never hurts to know what your taking about before commenting, but forums aren’t always about Q+A for many subjects. They also cover objective and subjective views regarding specific things and how the community feels about them in overall balance or game play issues.
