Touch of the Magi damage calculation

[Windfury-amnennar]

Hello there,

I was making a WeakAura for Arcane Mage, and wanted to make a textbox that shows how many damage the current Touch of the Magi will be doing.

I’ll skip the doing of the WeakAura in itself, but by doing “incoming damages * 0.25”, since the tooltip says “accumulating 25% of the damage you deal to the target for 8 sec”, I was far from getting the real numbers.

And I realized that, to achieve that goal, i had to multiply the incoming damages by 0.546. Or, 54.6%.

I was testing on dummies, but is this normal ? Am i missing something ?

theres plenty of stuff in the open world that doesnt calculate totm properly, mage discord played around with it around 9.0 but m+/raid isnt affected as far as we could tell

its mostly due to things that scale with player level, those can have wonky interactions with totm (dummies, open world enemies, normal dungeons are affected while mythic ones are not for example)

keep in mind to include the 12% extra damage from the magis brand conduit for your final weakaura (* 0.37)

Thanks for the anwser, I’ll try in different situation to see if I can find a fixe multiplier for each situation

Maybe I’m missing something but…why?

It just seems like ui bloat? You’ll see how much damage it deals when it goes boom anyways
