You should reroll “Reduce all resources costs” back to “+xxxx Damage”.

You should reroll “Reduce all resources costs” back to “+xxxx Damage”.

This, right here.
You removed your actual damage stat.
It has nothing to do with transmog.

This comes up so frequently in the Bug Report forum that it’s been added to the stickied thread…

9. My Weapon Went from 2000+ DPS to 400
   Go back to the mystic and enchant the +xxxx-xxxx element damage back onto the weapon and NEVER roll this affix off ever again (unless you want to be zdps). The +xxxx-xxxx elemental damage is a main component for the damage of the weapon.

It’s beyond mindboggling how often this comes up still. It’s understandable that some aspects of the game might be little confusing to newer players but this falls in the category of “common sense”.

There’s absolutely no reason to reroll the raw damage of the weapon unless:

1. You play thorns or zDPS build and you want something more useful instead.
2. The damage value is low and other affixes are good.
3. You want different damage element. This is only worth in exceptional cases like wanting to proc Essence of Anguish with classes that normally don’t deal poison damage.

It is easy to make this mistake if, say, you enchant first and then perform the tran wiggle, since they are in the “same place” and you don’t need to look at the stats, specifically.

But, yeah, rolling for lower damage is naturally going to cause lower damage.
