Volcano Physical Damage?

[jhnam95]

Does Volcano (Firelord's ultimate) deal physical damage? I set my damage to 120 and it deals about 90 damage (the affected unit had 23% reduction from armor). I personally don't mind if it's magical or physical, but I want to know if it is or not.

Volcano's Damage is indeed reduced by physical armor, so it appears to be physical damage.

But the ability is really strange... I left the damage at 100 and it dealt either 37.5 or 75 to enemies without armor.

Volcano has splash damage for 50% of a direct hit.

But the ability is really strange... I left the damage at 100 and it dealt either 37.5 or 75 to enemies without armor.

That just means the splash's medium damage factor is 0.75 and small damage factor is 0.37.

Bleh. I'm too lazy to work around it. I'll just make it slightly stronger and if the players want to work out the math, let them x)
