The important thing is whatever damage is done by DF is increased by 10%.

It is not needed for calculations, and DF already include that 10% bonus. I need it for two columns on Spells tab (tooltip DD and Tooltip DoT) to be accurate, so that someone who try to test excel damage (after he enter stats for his char) with tooltip can use those 2 columns. And they already include errors of tooltip that I heard about or found while testing (explained in comments).

Do you have any way to model the 5% force bonus damage from Unnatural Might (Sith Warrior)?

Edit: I'm going to assume you intended 'buff % to willpower' (G26) to be force bonus damage and I'll just put my buffed willpower in to the character sheet
You are correct there - I moved that multiplier way back when I was testing something about bonus damage, and didnt put it back. 'Buff % to willpower' should multiply H18. And it will later influence both crit chance and Spell damage bonus.

Kor Wrote:The formula in H44 is supposed to be modeling the damage/healing power buff; it should be using G28 isntead of G26.

While H44 is damage buff, it should not use neither G28 nor G26. Actually, G28 is used in H52 - which is actual % bonus to force damage. Just using in H44 would not increase force damage by given %.
