Just to clarify for D3 - for weapons, the +% damage on a weapon does not actually apply to damage after dps, correct? So it can be ignored? It just applies to the damage already shown in the weap through the dps? I've gotten different answers on this and just want to make sure something like +50% weapon damage doesnt mean it adds 50% damage to hits.

Edit - does attack speed % just get factored in to the dps also? WHY THE FUCK DOES IT HAVE THESE STATS ON A WEAP IF THEY ARE JUST FACTORED IN TO DPS ANYWAY??

everything is factored into dps.

the details come into play if you're concerned about how much of that dps is due to elemental damage that could be resisted by the majority of what you're going to be facing. also, your weapon speed determines the speed of all attack skills.

Sorry, i didn't mean overall DPS i meant for weapons only
I'm explaining this like a complete mongoloid but here is what i'm asking-

say a weapon is 1h and 900dps with +45% weapon damage as stats - that 900dps for that weapon already has the +45% weapon damage factored in right? It isnt any better than 900dps with +10% weapon damage and same goes with speed bumps on weaps?
