    Hi,
    I have a DK, base damage 820-960. I use "rageful swing" that should inflict 100% of my base damage for every hit.
    When I hit a monster I see numbers, the damage I inflict for each hit. For half of the hits the numbers are white in the range of 410-450, for the other half the numbers are orange in the range of my base damage.

    Shouldn't be the other way around ? All the hits to have a minimum of my base damage and some of the hits the value of my critical ? (which is 50% critical rate and around 210% critical damage)

    enemies have armor and resistance too :) the armor is around 50% so it cut's off about half of your damage :)
