It's not true damage, it's magic damage, and the percentage is proportional to the opponent's health. You'll deal 40% of the enemy max health in damage reduced by magic resist..

So if Mundo with 1300HP and 0 MR stands on it, you'll deal to him 40% of his health: 520 damage.

If he has 100 MR, you'll only deal half of that (100 MR reduce magic damage by 50%): 260 damage.
