Would the +damage from Assault increase the damage output of the critial portion of an AS?

And does that +damage applies to the critical portion of a normal attack executed from hide?

If it's affected by enhancements and BU, it'll also be affected by other damage buffs.

So yes, it would

Thanks MaX

And what damage increase would Assault give? (Approximately)


Golden-Phoenix - Lvl 50 Fire/Fire Tank
Oodja Nikabolokov - Lvl 50 SS/WP Brute
Baby-Phoenix - Lvl 50 Peacebringer
How much wood would a woodchuck chuck if a woodchuck could Chuck Norris?

+10.5% Damage.

Doesn't sound much. But it multiply along with each portion of critials, if it does affact critical.

Still in the process of verifying.

Or approximately 3,9%

Yeah, I did the math and decided against it on my EM/EA stalker.

Though on him I have managed to fit in +20% in +dmg set bonuses from IOs without losing global recharge (he has +25% rchg - about standard for my non-purpled melee ATs and he's L47 anyway atm) - I mainly used Mako in attacks and Red Fortune in shields, plus Adjusted Targeting in BU &amp; Undermined Defences in Water Spout, to get that bonus. So that's always an option too if you want a +dmg boost.

I only started slotting him up with those sets last night and I'm still missing a few pieces, though, so I can't say how much difference it will actually make yet - tbh so many bosses seem to have a sliver of life left after his opening attack chain that if I can turn most of those into kills I'll be happy. And my stalker's secondary is so poor that "kill or be killed" really is central to his survival
