lvl93 cold sorc, blizz damage 15/16k and Ice Bolt 7k damage
just curious if 2 rings with cold skill damage would deal more damage than 2 rings with 1 to all skills
Well, I just tested it by swapping the actual gear and looking at the character screen. But if you want an answer before swapping the gear:
1) Total your current gear, jewels and sunders that adds % cold damage. Let's say it totals +50% right now. Then a +5% cold damage ring will add (155%/150% - 1) damage, or 3.33% damage
2) +skills doesn't effect synergies, it only impacts the base skill. So use an online table to see what the non-synergized damage % increase is from your current level +1.
For Blizzard, if your current skill level is level 40, then from this table we can see an additional +1 (lvl 41) will take the non synergized damage from: 1770-1839 (1804.5 avg) to 1835-1905 (1870 avg). That represents a 3.6% damage increase.
Note that for a fire or lightning sorc, you also have to take into account fire and Lightning Mastery + damage %. But in that case there is no need to calculate - the +1 skill will always be better.
