Razorwood Companion question

Razorwood companion. A powerful twig blight that serves its owner well and will defend you at all costs.

Razorwood Stats:

Active Bonus: +25% Combat Advantage. +2.5% Critical Severity

Is that 25% times our current CombAdv stat or 25% combAdv damage bonus ?

    i got one (was hoping someone would tell me before i got it). The stats don't change, and the damage increases a little but not the 25% that i was expecting. I have a HR with aspect of pack on with my pet and the single damage i did to dummies went up about a 1000ish points from 10k damage. Can we get some figures and explainations on this pets ability and combadv vs base damage ?

    It's CA damage, so you won't see a 25% damage boost, but the amount of CA damage should go up by 25%.

    It's an added 25% ca damage. The same as if you could somehow get your combat advantage rating to total 25% more than what you got now.

    about, how much is the CA damage out of the whole amount ?

    has a lot more info on combat advantage and crit severity.
    Basically Combat Advantage Damage is comparable to crit severity. when you crit and have combat advantage both, youre damage is increased by crit severity + combat advantage.

    So if you have 90% CS and 20% CA, your damage will be increased by 110%.

    If you increase that by the 25% CA + 2,5% CS, your damage will be increased by ~140%.

    Before the increase you deal 210% damage, after the increase you deal 237,5 %. So you are dealing ~10% more damage, thats where @athena s 1k increase on a 10k hit come from.
