-Dam roll and average are similar, they are
both base damage, but the average is
consistently added to the damage you deal
while your weapon can put out a variety
of damages but it averages (hence the average
part of the weapon) at a certain number.
As a side note, level does seem to have a
factor in the damage you deal with a weapon.
For instance, if you are a level 1 thief
with a level 50 Dagger of Death, you won't
deal nearly as much damage if you hero'd with
that thief and wielded the same weapon. I
really don't know how this truly affects your
fighting, but I suspect it reduces the potential
damage and therefore the average in some way.
Correct me if you can!
