    Cool way to compare the 2 types of damage and how they interact with talents/skills 🔥
    Smite seems crazy good for rally/garrison, since you can guarantee counter attacks for that extra 200 damage factor per target per turn.
    I imagine you would usually get off half as much white damage per skill cycle while field fighting though - unless planning to whale tank counter attacks on the front line.

      @@koti1422 sure there’s also way more skill damage increase in kits and talent trees than normal damage increase.

    About the 20% normal damage increase on a smite pair VS 46,6% skill damage increase on a skill damage pair:
    - You take 3200 as damage from base attacks and 2400 as a skill damage factor. But in reality a pairing does not 1 but 2x a active skill per cycle. This means that the skill / smite damage contribute to a much larger portion of the total damage then is portrayed in your example. So the calculation should have been:
    (3200+4800) x 1.2 = 9600 DMG (Smite)
    3200 + (4800 x 1.33) = 9600 DMG (Skill)
    Aka, 20% of smite damage increase equals roughly 33% skill damage increase.
    2. You also mention that smite is better because many commander kits and talent trees contain skill damage mitigation. I would argue that YES for talent trees you are 100% correct. But when we look at commander kits, there is commanders that have skill damage mitigation, but also commanders that have smite damage mitigation (And I predict we will see more of that in future, especially on archers).
    As of right now, I would say that smite is about 10-15% better then skill…
    And normal damage increase is about 1.5 to 1.6 times better then skill damage increase…
    Aka a 20% normal damage increase equals roughly a 30-32% skill damage increase.

      So I’m bringing up a general idea (smite has inherent advantages over skill) and using numbers to show what I’m talking about….i mentioned a few times in the video that there are a bunch of moving parts and the numbers vary widely depending on which one you pick.
      Every one of these alternate scenarios would change the math a bit and it doesn’t really add to the big picture conservation.
      For example, using your scenario, by the time the second active skill goes off, you would gotten another 2 white damage turns in…so the math also wouldn’t be 33% if you wanted to calculate it that way.
      The big picture is that smite and skill use the same numbers but the nature makes it where you can’t compare the numbers 1 to 1.
      Bringing up one example and then saying you think it’s 15% better as opposed to 20% better…. Is that really adding to the conversation?

    • @ferisadi2418
      @ferisadi2418 Місяць тому

      Based on the thumbnail, and the information on the sheets a very clear message is provided. It’s too easy to now say yeah there is too many moving parts, bla bla, but at the same time throw this many specific numbers. So let’s talk those numbers.
      Skill cycle duration (8) = 8 normal attacks + 2 times a skill triggering on top of normal attack. So no my scenario is quite realistic. You present a example of Liu Che and Wallace. Where you calculate with 8 turns normal attacks (3200) and 2400 damage from active skills. That 2400 is just very unrealistic and only takes in the active skill of Wallace and exaggerates how much smite is better then skill damage (Which is the title of that sheet). I think we both can agree that my calculations and estimates based off those calculations are much more accurate (Although maybe not perfect).
      You react in a way, that makes me think you feel attacked by my comment. But my intention is only to join in on a conversation and provide your viewers with more accurate estimates by using a more realistic scenario.
      Good day

    In my opinion, I agree with core concept but it discounts the presence of 2 skills in 10 seconds which would reduce the advantage. Then I think this would be a fair calculation for single target.
    Limited AOE options for smite also reduce the advantage, but core concept is sound just overstated

      @@nomustard3406 it also discounts when you just do white damage and an active skill doesn’t get launched….which happens often in open fielding. And in that scenario, the value of normal attack increases is completely felt and skill damage isn’t.
      There’s probably thousands of combinations and scenarios that I could’ve picked….and then someone can always say “well in this scenario the math would change”. The point is to understand that the nature of smite and skill damage is different and even though you see the number….. don’t make an apple to apple comparison

    Hey bro, any good source for finding what inscriptions work with smite damage? I find some of these descriptions sorta vague. Such as "skill damage of all types". Does this have affect on smite damage? Would smite be considered a "type" of skill damage? I cant seem to find a straight answer or a reliable source to answer.

    inf rallies will for sure shred, i knew that. this means they will shred even more. for at least 3 months the pure rally garrison meta will be all inf, better get training. we will see with new archer garrison if that can relieve our inf dead numbers 🤣
    at the end of the day wallace is a bigger upgrade to liu alex than i believed prior and maybe makes 3 infantry marches meta for 7 march players again

    Kind sir: this is a legit question. In eng tree, Forbearance has oddly specific language: for every 5 seconds in combat, the troops' next ranged basic attack or ranged counter attack deals 50% more ranged normal damage. It says nothing about smite. At the same time it quite narrowly words it as 'next ranged basic attack'. Are they purposely excluding smite, here? I mean if it just said 'every 5 seconds in combat, ranged nl damage is increased by 50%,' then there'd be no confusion. So, does this talent apply to smite? Thx

      @@68Busdriver I took a look at the ranged report and I now understand what and why it says it this way. You are in combat for five seconds. Then, the next turn you get 50% increase in ranged normal attack. This is just for one turn (turn 6). You go for five more seconds. And turn 11 you get another 1 turn of 50% ranged nl damage. So, it does look like it is full nl range dmg increase which will buff smite. Now, this really makes the case for support tree for Mar/cor. You want to throw cor's skill as often as possible to increase chance of lining up with those turn 6 11 16 ... buffs! Gaja/Cor or Cor/Gaja are thus too slow, as they don't have rejuvenate.
