Arrow shower level 10 = 125% damage

Double strafe level 10 = 380%

4 bow guardians = +200% arrow shower damage for 325 total.

My DS does like 8k to ghouls. So arrow shower should do just a little under that? I'm not sure how the card calculates damage.

I'm quite sure the damage isn't calced like that. Its more likely to be {(Arrow shower damage) x (card modifiers 200% in this case or just 2)} x reductions(def x % reduction x elemental reduction etc)

You're playing with direct increase[add] skill items so the same script rule is sorta applied in this and the damage goes as this - you do 200, 4 bow guardian give +200% so you triple your final dmg and 200 becomes 600.

Your dmg*[1+modifiers] = final dmg
200*[1+2] = final dmg
200*3 = final dmg
600 = final dmg

If you use something as 2 tg and 2 bow guardian the math would be something +/- like this:

[Your dmg*[1+bow guard modifiers]]*[1+tg modifiers] = final dmg
[200*[1+1]]*[1+0.4] = final dmg
400*1.4 = final dmg
560 = final dmg

[at least the game and calcs show me this ._. but I may be wrong ofc so if someone see that this is wrong correct me]

And if someone is wondering, yes, this is also how it seems that sword guardian cards work and any other direct increase skill dmg.
