Hello,
As per description, Eldritch God Set bonus I should give 9% extra damage for legendary while possessed or enemy doomed.
I got possessed but no extra damage was added, neither on the possessed move nor later on.
What am I doing/expecting wrong?
You do have your extra damage here though (+1712). Can you show your original damage? Looks right from the picture, unless I’m missing something.
That +1712 is not from the Eldritch Set bonus. It is likely that was from a cast of Pay in Advance.
The Eldritch set bonus, if I recall correctly, does not show in the stat page, but is applied in the damage calculations.
Which is… a bug, right? How do I know it’s there if it’s not showing in stats?
Hard to say. Look at the Element Strike ability on gear. You never see an actual extra damage bonus, but it is applied at the damage step all the same. Guess we’ll have to wait for Jeto to comment.
The bonus % from the set is not shown in the pause menu. As @00h00m mentioned it’s added to the total once the damage is dealt - due to the order in which it is applied
There are many bonuses that are not shown here.
Also, just completed a battle with only enough armor to get the set bonus (2 pieces, +10% damage)…
Base damage shown in the stat screen was 6,700 > Possessed applied to the hero > Matched 3 Skulls and dealt 14,816 damage [I did also crit]
- Crit hit damage +101%
TLDR; 6,700 x 2.01 (the 101% crit damage) = 13,467 +10% from Eldritch God Set bonus = 14,814 (slightly off due to some rounding)
Is there any particular reason why it doesn’t show up under extra damage whereas madness-related extra damage is shown?
Because it is applied after damage.
The total you see I believe is the base damage plus any bonuses that get applied before anything like the eldritch set bonus - bonuses that are applied after any initial calculations.
This is not a bug.
