A few questions

[Shai]

First of all I am new to this forum and didn't have much time to read most of the treads here. Therefore I might ask some things that are already asked and answered and perhaps I am even posting it in the wrong place (in which case I kindly request to move the tread if possible)

I have a few basic and probably noobish questions which I think should be included in here. I have found some usefull treads here, but couldn't find any answer to my questions.

-Although perhaps obvious the damage from the evoker's "elemental" spells, what type are they and how is damage calculation being done? Thereby I also wonder what the % added by increasing those skill levels actually do, is that increasing the power to stun for instance (and thereby the chance to stun, which I would be guess to be power/(power+defence) +/- other mods).
-Although perhaps obious (and perhaps if I would look better I could find this one) are the summoner's "pets" bound to character level and thereby increasing hit points and armor while leveling (didn't really pay attention)
-The "grenade" skills from the hunter class, does damage of these scale by level? And do they deal more damage if a higher damage weapon is being used?


Basically my main questions are: how is damage calculated? Is all damage related to the weapons you're wielding? and is this the left/right hand weapon only? How is damage dealt related to characterlevel?

Again sorry if I ask questions that have already been mentioned

Damage from skills does scale with character levels, that much I know offhand.

As for damage calculation, it has to do with a combination of factors including skill level, character level, and focus items in use. I know, it sounds complicated. It is, heh.
