There is going to be some minor difference in the values between live and test. The new code handles spell damage completely different than the old code so we tried to make it as even as possible without completely redoing the new codes base programming.

However there is an obvious issue with the decreasing of dmg when it should be increased. Will add that to the queue to fix.

If you can (maybe it's in there and I missed it) take off all gear and get base dmg + robe and base dmg + scythe only. Want to see what the damage shows. It may be that a focus is overriding another instead of adding on top. The test I suggested should clarify that.
