“InfernoBurning you inflict scales off of your power instead of your condition damage.
Power Converted to Burning Damage: 10% Power Converted to Burning Damage: 6%- Burning: 131 Damage
— In-game description
Mechanics[edit]
Damage calculations[edit]
This trait replaces the normal damage coefficient for burning damage. Normally, burning damage is calculated using the character's condition damage stat, using the following formula:
(0.155 * Condition Damage) + (1.55 * Level) + 7
per second
However, Inferno changes this formula to scale with power instead:
(0.1 * Power) + (1.55 * Level) + 7
per second (in PvE)(0.06 * Power) + (1.55 * Level) + 7
per second (in PvP)
Burning modified by Inferno is calculated with 10% scaling in PvE and 6% in PvP. For example, in PvE, a Power value of 1893 at level 80 would cause burning to do an extra 189 damage, totaling 320 damage (131 base + 189 from Power).
Additional notes[edit]
- Burning damage modified by Inferno is not affected by the condition damage stat at all.
- All other behaviors of burning remain the same, including expertise, and effects that change burning / condition duration or damage interval.
- Since the damage coefficient of burning is set to 0.1, compared to the 0.155 of regular unmodified burning, the attribute scaling of burning modified by Inferno is thus approximately 65% of regular burning.
- Inferno will also affect external sources of burning, including Relics (like Relic of the Fractal and Relic of the Steamshrieker) and Fire Aura.
