Dom Damage Buffs
Exactly.
If it has eyes, you can blind it, if it has blood, you can make it bleed, if it has a mouth, you can make it scream.
So if I'm playing a dom who teams all the time and usually a full team at that, it feels like I almost have perma domination, is there much point in slotting for damage?
Domination is a 75% damage buff. It stacks with all other damage buffs and enhancements. So if you're, for example, 3 slotted for damage (Giving you around 95% boost), and have a +30% damage buff on you, with domination your damage will be (Base Damage) * (1 + 0.95 + 0.7 + 0.3)
So slotting damage is still useful.
So this means that slotting damage only helps you OUTSIDE of domination? Sounds like a really screwed up way to do things. Is this common for damage buffs, like if i have a thermal buffing does it work the same way? In that case I would seriously consider slotting something else like recharge over damage in situations where domination is often on the go (big teams & pvp).

Thanks to Max for putting my question/idea better.
I'll get back to what I SHOULD be doing .
Yeah, Max explained it completely right. Basically, all damage buffs are calculated based on an attackĀ“s unenhanced damage, but they do stack until you reach the damage cap.
If it has eyes, you can blind it, if it has blood, you can make it bleed, if it has a mouth, you can make it scream.

That's exactly what I was worried about and was considering changing my slotting for my Doms.
Thanks to Sin and MaX.

Yep, my Plant/Fire has had her AoE attacks slotted 2Acc/2Rec/2Dam ever since the last changes, given she has Dom up more often than not (usually teaming in a duo or trio) - which I find works much better.

Quick question about Dominators and damage. Am I right in my understanding that when in Domination the buff that you gain is based on your base damage and any enhancements you have aren't taken into account?
