Hi guys,
So, There's something I don't get about how Conqueror works. I know I will sound Dumb, but I just don't get it
When you take the Rune, you can see two stats : Total true damage dealt and True damage that would have been mitigated.
Whats the difference between the two exactly ? And which one of those is actually the real damage dealt?
tldr: Between the two, which one represent the real damage dealt.
thank you, your moron friend
True damage that would have been mitigated is the important number.
True damage dealt is the amount of true damage that you deal total. True damage dealt that would have been mitigated is what really matters.
If you are facing a 0 armor target, they're going to take 100% of the damage you deal to them, regardless of if it's true or physical damage. Therefore your true damage dealt that would have been mitigated is 0.
If you are facing a target with >0 armor, a percentage of your physical damage will be blocked. By converting a portion of your physical damage to true damage via the conqueror keystone, you are subverting the armor and dealing more damage total.
Hope that helps.
TL;DR: damage dealt that would have been mitigated is the number that really matters.
Suppose someone has 100 armour, which would block 50% of all physical damage
If you would normally deal 100 physical damage, that would be reduced to 50
With conqueror, you would be dealing 80 physical damage and 20 true damage, which would be reduced to 40 physical damage and 20 true damage
So if that 20 damage was physical, it would be reduced by 10, but it's not
So, you dealt a total of 20 damage with that attack, but 10 of that damage that you normally wouldn't have done was done
Which would mean total damage = 20, and damage that would have been mitigated = 10
If you're going up against a Rammus, the mitigated damage will be a whole damn lot higher than it would be if you were just against a squishy
