Area Damage, I'm confused help(1)Category: GeneralFebruary-26-2014 11:37 AM PST (9 years ago) Go to Blizzard forum post
Can someone explain what this is? Under detail stats for your character, right below "critical dmg" it says "area dmg", if I hover my mouse cursor over this it says "All attacks have a 20% chance to also deal x% of the damage to enemies within 10 yards" . Now i can increase the "x%" by weapons or paragon points, but what does it do exactly, it says ALL attack. So if I cast blizzard there's another 20% chance it'll do x% more dmg with an additional 10 yard radius?

This is correct! Each time a skill damages a target, regardless of whether the skill is AOE or single-target, there is a 20% chance for Area Damage to occur.
