Fire Bolt in Kuradels Dungeon

[Sir_Squab]

If I were to wear a ferocious ring and chaos gauntlets in there, fire bolt would hit 200LP, correct?

 

If so, how would things like the arcane stream/SoL/Extreme Magic potions/Wolpertinger scroll work? Would the boost work on the new max hit of 200 or the old max hit of 120?

[Infi]

120 * (1.51 [15 from Staff of Light, 15 from Hexcrest, 21 from 7*3 percent each level boosted from wolpertinger]) + (40 from Kuradal's) + (30 from Chaos Gauntlets)

 

= 251.2

Not sure about how it stacks, but i definately used to hit over 251 with fire bolt in Kuradal's before having an Arcane Stream.

[svs]

What? Hexcrest actually makes you hit higher? I asked a couple of people and they all were positive that you didn't ?

 

All magic boosting items stack by the way with the exception of potions ofcourse, you won't get +30 magic level if you use a magic essence potion a magic potion and an extreme magic potion.

a minimum of 25 per hit? wow i might have to try that (once i get another 10 combat levels)

Well, its not a minimum. You can still splash or hit 0s. The minimum damage you can do is 41. This is because the ferocious ring boosts whatever you hit by 40 lp, and the minimum hit is 1. Either way, I dont think i would be too keen on fire bolting there anyways. I would go big or go home (fire surge baby :D).

still, 250 max dmg is pretty dang good for a chaos rune spell. if money is a problem, this seems to be the way to go lol.

I would just like to add to this that the actual formula for maging is as follows:

 

Base damage * Equipment Damage % * Potion % * Slayer % + Special bonuses

(Always in this order)

 

So your actual values with

staff of light = 15% Equipment Damage

Arcane Stream = 15% Equipment Damage

Hexcrest = 15% Slayer Damage

Wolpertinger/Extreme Magic = 21% Potion Damage

would be,

 

120 * 1.30 * 1.21 * 1.15 = 217

217 + 40 + 30 = 287 Max hit.

 

I've tinkered with the magic damage formula alot and found this one to be very accurate with max hits.

 

EDIT OT: Also fun fact about slayer dart. Slayer dart damage is based on your magic level (100+magic level). Boosting your magic stats increases the base hit of slayer dart to 206.

 

206 * 1.30 * 1.21 * 1.15 = 372 + 40 = 412 Max hit.

 

Still not quite as efficient as chaos bolt though.
