Thread: Combat Chat innacurate for specials... ?
I've sometimes saw a 4.1k over my NPC mob I was fighting (knockdown + cripple) i've searched it in the Combat Chat but couldn't find it... thought I was seing things or something..
but now its different... i've used Scatter Shot on this mob over and over and over.. and in the Combat Chat I see 1 point hits of damage..... huh? ![]()
can anyone double check that and tell me it isn't just me? it'd be nice to know which HAM is the scatter shot hitting and for how much.. and also those 3k / 4k shots not appearing in the combat chat windows...
Something wrong somewhere?
Yriah
Well two different things.
One - combat spam does not take into account any variables such as armor rating, armor piericing, or resists.
Secondly, scatter shots combat spam is broken.
Combat window basically reports the "base" unmodded damage. However the damage of the target shows the final damage - personally I think they should just make the combat spam the final damage, would make things more simple.
So basically, you shoot something with a laser carbine for 500 damage, well in reality, if the target has AR 0, you are doing extra damage because of the armor piericng 2 of a laser carbine, but if the target has resists, it's subtracting some(what % the resist).
