1 Aggra + 1 Normal to Enemy & 1 Aggra + 1 Normal to self?

Unspecified additional damage takes the type of the original damage.

So for this example:
2R Agg to target, 1 agg to self

[henrik]

Why not 2 damage to self (or 3 in case of superior)?

Burst of Sunlight
Type: Combat
Requires: Thaumaturgy
[tha] Strike: 1R aggravated damage. This striking vampire also takes 1
aggravated damage.
[THA] Strike: 2R aggravated damage. This striking vampire also takes 2
aggravated damage.

Reverend Blackwood
Clan: Tremere antitribu (group 2)
Capacity: 6
Disciplines: DOM THA obf
Sabbat bishop: Damaging strikes made by Reverend Blackwood that
require Thaumaturgy inflict +1 damage.

IANLSJ:

Primarily because his Strike has it's damage increased by 1 by his
special text. The side effect (that of inflicting damage to the
striking vampire) is not affected.

Correct

"Damage from a strike" only includes damage done to the opposing target.
Side effect damage is not counted as "damage from a strike". Therefore,
self-inflicted damage from Zip Gun, Grenade, Burst of Sunlight, Body of Sun,
etc. is side effect damage and is not preventable by "prevent damage from a
strike" effects like Skin of Steel, Leather Jacket, etc. [LSJ 19970108] [ ]
