If you are talking about the +2-3 poison damage stats that appear on weapons, I am pretty sure they are included in the dps of the weapon.
No ![[image loading]](http://i.imgur.com/AJZzW.png)
Wow, that sucks. I have always only watched the dps, what a huge mistake. If you watch your characters dps under "details" in the inventory, is the extra damage included there? is the "extra damage" boosted by attributed in the same way as the normal damage?
Just trying to correct a little misinformation that is being spread here. The + 2-5 arcane damage or +1-4 lightning damage are already included in the 13-30 damage statistic. The base weapon for both of these items can have slight variation in the base damage before including the +damage modifiers. So, the first weapon will hit for 13-30 damage, of which 2-5 is arcane and the rest is normal. You can prove this to yourself by finding a few yellow items and looking at their damage values before and after you identify them. The dps, damage, and attack speed displayed on the item include any +flat damage of any element, +% damage, and + attack speed. Any additional damage boost from the stats that the item gives will not be included in the dps displayed on the item, but you will see the effect in the tooltip at the bottom that shows how changing the item for your currently equiped one affects your life points, damage, and protection. |

Anyone suspect duping is in play now?
I'm seeing 4 blue items, posted all at the same time. All 4 have identical stats, same armor, +108 dex, +12% attack speed, all sold for the same price. |

Possible to buy from merchants, as many as you like.
Bought a bunch of 15% attack speed rings with +dmg for 7k each in A1, did the same thing. |

100k per hour is really slow GF for me. Just farming A1 inferno Butcher yields more gold/hour.
Hellish Staff of Herding Pony runs also much faster. |

I apologize if this has been asked....
If I'm in a coop with friends with different MFs, does it make a difference if the person with the highest MF makes the kill or opens the treasure chest? or is it all randomized for each person's MF... |

nobody knows except the devs, but it varies by spell... some say if you combine a black mushroom with a mew you will understand the mechanics of this game... |

question about loot:
will inferno act 1 and act3 have same kind of gear or will act 3 always have better itens than act 1?
thanks. can't find the answer for that! |

Act 3 has far better gear than act 1, you could say that every act in inferno has a higher level of loot. If you farm act 1 inferno, it's rare to find gear with lvl 60 requirement, most will be in the range of 55 and 59. Weapons are generally completely useless, a great 2h weapon in act 1 inferno probably doesn't have even 500dps, where a 2h weapon from act 3 or act4 can have double that. Already in Act 2, you get much better drops, almost every item will have lvl 60 as requirement, and this is where you start to be able to get items good enough to sell.
So yeah, you can farm act 1 inferno, but don't expect to get all that many useful items, only legendaries and set items will be able to net you a lot of cash, act2 and above just blow the gear from act1 away.Last edit: 2012-05-28 21:31:13 |

Another question about the DPS display on weapons and the AH displays;
I (monk) got a rare one-hander with +-750 dps. Some mods are + weapon damage and + holy damage. Those are included in the dps display if I understand correctly. However, the weapon als gives +111 dexterity (monk's main damage stat). Of course, I can see how much my dps increases by equipping the item and watching the difference in the damage meter in the inventory.
However, I want to buy a new weapon on the auction house. There's a column displaying the dps of the weapon, but that doesn't take into account the +dexterity stats on the items there right?
In other words, could I buy a 800 dps weapon (50 more than mine), as displayed on the AH, and see my dps increased by 50 or should I try to find a comparable weapon with mine, equip it and then calculate how much the dexterity bonus affects the dps on my current weapon?
Edit: I only have to manually calculate the Dex bonus, all of the + dam, +% dam, ias and + element dam are already included in both displays right?
Edit 2: Even better, I just found this formulea a few pages back:
There is hidden bonus damage by the addition of primary stats which will add (x/100)*base dps ontop of any dps increase provided by this.
So, do I have to substract 111/100* (base damage from my one-hander) from the displayed dps number on my weapon, and then compare it to the dps of the weapons on the AH, dps as displayed on the weapons themselves?Last edit: 2012-05-29 00:49:37 |

Minor Spoilers about the end of A2's boss in my question: + Show Spoiler +Does Belial's animation just absolutely destroy anyone else's sense of balance? I get so dizzy fighting him that I can't do it... my husband had to beat him for me.
I have never, ever had any problems with video games graphics before: I'm not epileptic, I don't get motion sick from any other games... I just want to know if it's just me or not before bringing it to Blizzard's attention (haha, yeah right... like they'd care about anything their customers have to say.) |
