Damage over time? - Mazz - 2014-03-20
How is damage over time calculated? I'm basically trying to figure out how to get from my damage range to the damage that Venom inflicts onto monsters.
Venom:

I have +40% damage (20% gloves, 10% kanna, 10% demon avenger links) if that's affecting it which I feel like it probably is.

Total Damage does not affect Damage Over Time from what I can tell so you wouldn't be able to get your range from just that.
...Unless it's changed recently and I didn't notice. Last time I played around with it it didn't seem to, but that was a few months ago.

That's irritating
don't want to take off my link skills just to test stuff, does make sense that it wouldn't work though. I originally guessed it'd be max damage range * whatever the DoT amount is (so 1.6 for Fatal Venom) but that doesn't work, so I dunno.

Did some testing of my own with Oz's Flame Gear after taking off a bunch of equips (Oz's Flame Gear is 100% DoT so it makes calculations super easy):
DoT and range with Hero's Gloves:

Pretty sure there'd be a much bigger difference if the 20% Total Damage worked.

Damage over time is your max damage without Total Damage times the rated damage.
In Mazz's case, his max damage is 1801206. He has 40% Total Damage which is displayed in range, so you divide that out. His clean max damage is now 1286575.7. Multiply that by Toxic Venom's rated damage 1286575.7 * 1.6 = 2058521
In Green4Ever's case there may be a character card, link skill, or other gear unaccounted for.
