Does Total dmg and Boss dmg stack

I always thought they stacked additively, but someone told me that they don't stack at all, and total dmg% would apply on mobs while Boss dmg% on bosses. I wanna check to see if he's right before recubing a 20% dmg 55% boss 17% attack whip blade q_q

It's called [b]Total[/b] Damage for a reason.

That whip blade seems fine the way it is. I'm sure you have another equip that has worse potential that you should cube instead

I can assure you % total damage works on bosses, simply using your guild's 20% total damage skill will prove this easily. Though I wouldn't recube that anyway unless the % total is all in normal or all in bonus potential. % total damage isn't good, but wiping out two good lines to get rid of it is kind of overkill.
