Powers= staffy weapons damage is compiled by adding your will power and the staff damage along with your rough modifier. Spell damage is compiled by your pirates mojo effects ie: 5% boosts to damage the max you can have is currently 15% boost, from leveling Overpower 5% boost x3. What would be nice is a damage range on spells, currently these are not listed on the spell so when you play ghost wail you dont know what amount of damage will be done : ie: 50-100 all we see is a number when the spell hits x 5 (21,21, 21, 23 ,25) for example thats 111 damage. This spell generates a very random number every time its cast so no 2 castings are identical for any given level. I would like to see in the future a damage range for spells so we can see the good from the bad. Like with musketeer guns the spells they use dont list a damage range other than 2x or 1x damage for your gun damage range. Id like to see how much more damage case shot does than blusterbuss shot. The sad thing is randomness often interjects in this game so a level 40 ability does less damage than a level 1 ability which i find weird. Most notably when using a swashbucklers poison attack the 3 turn poison attack always seems to do more damage than the 5 turn one and at times does not. I guess the mobs you are facing make a difference too with their resistance modifiers, So i understand whay spells dont hit for as much as they do at other times. Last thing: game developers need to incorporate mob stats that we can see ie: resistances and armor class etc. etc. like they do the abitlities when we put the cursor over them ( riposte, vengeance strike etc etc). This would be great for strategizing further using melee against high resistance mobs and spells against weak resistance mobs. Witch doctors have spells that ignore armor so wouldnt it seem logical to be able to see the ac stat on a mob.
