How does strength factor work? (I tried to search this answer before asking, I really did)

Energy factor is:
Spell damage increased by (260*energy)/(250+energy) + min((energy*enr_factor)/15000,200) percent

Does strength factor simply stack on top of that but use strength?
Spell damage increased by (260*strength)/(250+strength) + min((energy*str_factor)/15000,200) percent

Are they combined somehow? For example:
Spell damage increased by (260*strength+energy)/(250+strength+energy) + min((energy+str)*(str_factor+enr_factor)/15000,200) percent

As an aside, does this mean Force of Nature is kinda pointless for the traprat, since a high strength factor won't affect quill storm a WDM skill? (yes I know you still get an elemental damage bonus)

yeah strength factor works just like energy factor does

force of nature is pointless for traprat because traprat scales with dex not str, also it only boosts spells not passive elemental damage

TCD gives the same bonus no matter what item you use it on, while ED is only useful on items that have a high base defense ( mostly chestpieces and some shields )

thanks, I understand it. But whats the difference between enchanted damage and enchanted weapon damage? how my dmg stats will change? Does it mean that if I have weapon with 1000dmg or 10dmg, the difference between MO +enchanted damage will be same, but MO +enchanted weapon damage will be different beacuese of 1000dmg or 10dmg weapon?

Weapon physical damage is calculated like this:

[(Base Weapon Damage)*(Enhanced Damage) + added phys dmg from gear]*(Enhanced Weapon Damage).

Basically when the part in the square brackets is high, it's a good idea to stack EWD. Conversely if you have skills which give a lot of EWD - like for example elfin weapons which gives bow druids 1000 - you should focus on maximising the part inside the square brackets instead.

Right, so it's just:

Additional spell damage from Energy / Energy Factor PLUS additional spell damage from Strength / Strength Factor? They aren't combined in some strange way? If so, strength factor seems awful powerful.
