Can you please give details on how the DamageShield & Damage Add work,and how are they calculated for LA swings? In game I am using a 11,3 dps Damage Add ,and it seems to do DPS close to that of a 4,2 DamageShield ( 11,3 dps charge & 4,2 damage Strong Elixir of Shard Skin).

i think the dmg add is divided to mh and of.... would be interesting how much dmg the add would do with mh only or 2h

IIRC from 2 decades ago, both are impacted by resists and/or armor.

You can see that the damage shield was doing +1 per hit to you. More than likely your armor type is giving a bonus to that damage type.

Your damage add isn't showing a +/- but is likely being impacted the same way.
It is also modified by wielding two weapons, mostly to keep the buff from being excessively powerful (and it is powerful).

Both participants of the test used leather armor,if that is important at all.
I noticed that both have random element to them,and that Damage Add does more dmg when the attack is styled (I guess it was just bad random).
