Yep, that explains it. Seems like skills systemically don't deal with the bonus damage items. I remember archers using their cold arrows doing less damage than their physical attack. I still love those items though.
I ended up abandoning my warrior run. Playing again as a mage. The warrior was plenty powerful, but I just find it more fun to play as a mage. Casting 2 spells a turn gives me much better control of the battlefield than having bigger stacks. So it'll probably be a week before I get to combat test the new dragons.
