immolation vs heavy armor

[Nindira]

does immolation deal extra damage to units weak to magic that have heavy armor? For example, would the cloak of flames(10 damage per second) deal extra damage (11+ damage) to a druid of the claw?

why dont you test it out?

make it 100% damage increase from magic then check if its doing double damage.

 

[Nindira]

you mean adjusting: data- damage per duration to 100 per second? Maybe I'm not understanding what you mean by making it, " 100% damage increase from magic."

 

[Just_Spectating]

in gameplay constants, make damage taken from magic damage on the Heavy armor to 100% then test if your immolation deals double dmg.

 

[Nindira]

does the ability, item immolation count as magic damage? I set constant, combat damage bonus table magic to 100.00 on large, and the damage was 10 vs the druid of claw. Didn't change, so I put 4.00, and the result did not change. Am I doing this right? I have not been able to increase immolation's damage against foes with heavy armor. I would like for them to take extra damage without increasing immolation' s base 10 per second damage.

Thanks for your help, I changed spell bonus damage and was able to obtain what I needed.

I think that immolation and other spell/ability based counts as 'spell' damage type.

Spell damage is not same as magic damage.
