Hi,

I bought a 64 INT charm to use for the first slot and I put my ee charm in the 2nd slot.
Then I started to wonder whether this makes sense and made the following calculation.

Can you help me by telling whether there's a mistake in these thoughts:

I use a 50 Int Weap and 58 Int Armor and have 98 base points INT , so
- my normal dmg would be: charm dmg * 100 % (1st slot) * (1 + (206 INT * 1.07 % (dmg bonus per INT)) so the dmg would be 320.42 % of the charm's dmg
- the dmg with the 1st slot charm would be 75 % (dmg charm is in 2nd slot) * (1+ (270 INT * 1,07)) so = 291.68 % of the charm's dmg

so using the 64 INT charm will make me lose almost 30 percent points of dmg

1.) Is this calculation true?
2.) The higher INT gives me a higher resistance against enemy charms and makes me break their defense/INT easier so is it still worth using the INT charm despite the loss of dmg?


Thx for your help in advance,
Conchi

int is like dex now

you get less results as it gets higher up so reallly hard to calculate the damage differnce without testing it in pvp arena vs someone with same in for both tests

thx FarSide - this even more speaks for not using the INT charm for the first slot

it's (charm base)*(.95+int/100)*(1+EE/100)
redo with that
and I'd also say that if the higher int does 10%less use the higher intsetup anyways just because the bonus effect when comparing to monsters int

thx a lot

this calculation endet with almost exactly 10% in favor to not using the INT charm, so I guess I follow your advice and keep the INT charm in first slot
