    The part that sucks is sometimes those 3% buffs compound with other stuff so it’s actually a 3000% buff but I can’t tell that because the devs don’t show where the boosts come from or how they’re calculated

    just show me the math with a tooltip or something I shouldn’t have to reverse engineer the games systems just to decide where to spend one stupid skill point ffs

      I think it was Diablo 3 (not a game I recommend) that had like “5% more damage” and “5% more fire damage” as buffs, but due to esoteric maths, the latter was significantly more impactful on the damage equation. Not a fan of that kind of secret maths in games.
