DPS and Boss% question

Does 15% boss theoretically boost ur run on a boss by 15%? I heard that it only does if you have no damage %. But in reboot you have tons of damage %. But say that you deal 100k line, 100% damage will increase ur damage to 200k. But 15% boss increases the line to 115k and then 100% damage increases it to 230k. And if it adds to the formula later then the damage becomes 200k and then x1.15 which is 230k. Or is that not how the formula works?

Also, according to the HPS/DPS thread, Shadower deals a ton of damage capping with Assasinate and Midnight Carnival. And, Assasinate is approximately 1/2 the dmg of MC when both are capping. So when you cap with MC 26MIL + a line doesnt that mean its better to use then assasinate?

I posted in the other thread but I didn't list the formula. The formula is (1+damage % + boss %) * (1 + % attack) * other. So damage and boss are in the same section addded, making total damage and boss damage together weak. Also shadower cap is 100m (120 for assassinate).

@shaoqi: You did your math wrong. 190% Boss means you have a 2.9x multiplier because base is 1x.
15% boss is about another 5% damage boost on bosses.

The effectiveness of 15% boss is also affected by how much %boss you currently have. At 190% boss, 15% more boss dmg is effectively 8% damage boost on bosses
