hm i'm not sure.
helmet 1 has 10% lightning dmg, 15 to energy factor and 3% to energy + some defense stats
helmet 2 has 41% lightning dmg, 18 to energy factor, -11% lightning pierce + other defense stats
shouldn't helmet 2 do more dmg?

what do you mean with shouldnt?
it does more damage even if the 3% energy add more damage compared to the 31% lightning damage (which they should not but looking at how you write it does) because the of the -11%

Impossible to say without knowing all your character stats. E.g. if you have no other sources of additional +% lightning spell damage, the higher amount on helmet 2 will matter a lot -- an increase from 110% to 141% is a relative increase of about 28%. But if you already have, say +200% lightning spell damage from other sources, this would be an increase from 310% to 341%, a relative increase of only 10%. Same goes for other stats such as energy factor (the effectiveness of which depends on your energy as well) and -% resistances (which btw is super powerful).

i have +199% lightning dmg. so i should get up to 230% right? my energy is 1097.
btw, english is not my motherlanguage, i apologize if something is not clear >.<

Okay I just realized that the helmet with the higher spell damage is also the one with the pierce... You definitely don't have enough energy to make the extra 3% on helmet 1 matter that much.
What do you mean by more damage anyway? Do you kill things quicker? Or do you actually have more damage shown on the character screen? If it's the latter, the only options I see is that whichever skill you're checking either doesn't deal lightning damage, or is not a spell (so not affected by these stats). Or there's some other stats on the helms that actually make a difference.

Whats the max %ED that can roll on superior armor? Highest I've seen after 100 rolls was 35% - seems like an odd number, so just checking.

Is there a list of reworked umos?

somehow i've solved it by myself. i have used a belladonna elixir. applied everything new and somehow the helmet does more dmg. even with less energy.
and no, i haven't applied more skill points on the same skill. or anywhere alse. whatever... thanks for your help
