Your statement makes no sense, and even what you meant, is extremely ironic.
Concentration damage is additive with all other sources that increase damage by a percentage, for pretty much all the compatible skills in the game.
Magic dmg % is clearly an exception, with blessed hammer at least.
Nice try.

it makes tons of sense

concentration shouldn't work with blessed hammer, but it does due to a bug that was never fixed. Given how it multiplies the magic damage of blessed hammer in a way it shouldnt, the equation works like this:
(B hammer damage x magic damage % ) x Conc %

so yes.. if you know how conc works, you would not expect magic damage % to be additive to conc %, as conc % isn't magic damage % like how lightning mastery is lightning damage % and thus a lightning facet is just additive to the already existing lightning damage % you have.

:bonk:

So your argument is "Because it's not an attack, and not physical damage, it has to be multiplicative."
That's highly arbitrary reasoning.
It could very well be additive as well, just like with all other skills affected by Concentration.

For people that do know what conc works, the assumption wouldn't be magic damage % + Conc % = total %. They would know it would be (Hammer x magic damage % ) x Conc %)

Here's 1 source that shows that aura dmg increases (not just Conc) are supposed to be additive with other dmg increase sources:

Now, your turn, show me 1 source that shows that having Conc behave multiplicatively with inc magic dmg % is expected.

im not sure why this is so difficult for you to understand.
