I'm doing something like 90 damage with my sword and together with all the bonuses from fire, spiritual, lightning, etc...damage I sometimes get over 200 damage with one blow. My sword has something like 70 - 90 base damage. If I look at the damage my sword does (you know when you hit someone) I sometimes see numbers in red that are way above 110 (sometimes even 156 or something in that region). I do not really know how it work exactly.
With the 110 do you mean the max base damage of a sword?
