ed/max jewel question
ok, i'm debating what to put into my lvl 9 asn's sup blade talons. i already have one jewel lined up: 9max/35ar/18ed. the other two are negotiable.
i'm thinking of either going with 2x 14max or 2x 9max/20ed jewels.
my question is:
with ed/max jewels, what is calculated first, the max or the ed?
for example, you take a 10 to 14 base dmg weapon and socket it with a 9max/20ed jewel. is the ed calculated and then the 9max added or is the 9max added and then the ed is calculated for the new base dmg of 10 to 23?
also, just out of curiosity, does b.net round up or round down when it comes to decimals? like, if the ed mod makes the max dmg 71.83, would b.net round it up to 72 or cut off the .83, making the dmg 71?
ok, i ran some tests and did some more calculations. it turns out that ed only affects the base dmg of the weapon and not whatever mods are on the jewels.
with the max/ed/ar jewel i mentioned above, my 15% sup blade talons would have:
11 - 53 dmg with 2x 14max jewels
17 - 51 dmg with 2x 9max/20ed jewels
17 - 61 dmg with 2x 14max/20ed jewels
also, answering my other question, b.net rounds down.
