    It's the +damage mod.

    The character screen doesn't show Grief damage properly, it seems to forget to apply off-weapon %ed (skills, auras, stats, non-weapon bonuses etc.) to its +dmg. That's a massive amount of damage, paladins can easily have more than 1000 off-weapon %ed, so you can add at least 4000 to the amount shown for them

    As previous people have mentioned, the main selling point of grief is the +damage mod it has.

    From what I've heard this +damage mod isn't as good as others for most characters, but for smiter Paladins it is extremely useful. The reason is because when you use smite, that +damage is added on to smite. Since the most damaging of shields only have about 50 average damage, the 350+ that grief adds makes a huge difference.
