Negative finisher damage affix

[Tiltskillet]

I'm tempted to buy a riven with a 100%+ negative finisher damage affix.  Is this merely additive with the normal finisher damage bonuses, or would it reduce finisher damage to zero, or something else?

It will probs reduce finisher damage to 0

If it's for a Dagger with Covert Lethality you may get janky numbers.

Not for a dagger (although that makes me curious about CL).

Anyway, how certain are you about it negating finisher attack damage?

You won't deal finisher damage unfortunately.

Finisher Damage modifiers are multiplicative.

If you did 100 damage with -100% Finisher damage then you should do 100 * (1 + -1.0) = 0

Never tested a negative value but this is the way it works for positive values.

Thank you, that simplifies things.
