How does the scaling on Maokai's W work?

The scaling is listed here as "+3% per 100 AP." Does this:

  1. mean he gets bonus damage as a step function ever time he builds an additional 100 AP? (+3% at 100, +6% at 200, etc. and nothing in between?)
  2. scale evenly, so he would get +1% damage at around 33 AP?
  3. Something else?

I play Maokai a lot, and I realized I did not know. Your input is gratefully accepted.

It (and other similar scalings) works as described in #2.

To compare, most skill scalings are +X% AP/AD, which could be thought of as +X per 100 AP. With the % damage skills though, trying to represent it this way would be confusing, since there are multiple %s involved.
