Thread: low numbers with Cripple Shot
Sorry but you didn't provide enough information. What kind of weapon are you using? What were you attacking? Resists of you target? What are the stats of your weapon? What was to posture of your target? etc.
For instance, if you are using a laser carbine on a mob that has high resist to energy as well as any armor whatsoever, and you get a low roll on your attack and only hit for say 100 points of dmg in your combat window. Then once resists and armor are factored and the little numbers above your targets head show up saying 16 dmg. Hmmm...this may seem low and it is but other factors contributed to this being low. Please provide more info.
I don't remember the numbers exactly but here a rought idea
FS, 50% resist everything, light armor?, standing
weapon: laser carbine 60-200 (guessing)
hitting for around 1000 (rough number)
Crippleshot has a damage multiplier of 7.5x
So the minimum base damage (before armor/resists) would be 450.
give me any mob and let me use all my carbines and cripple shot will hit for less than burst 1 and cost more ham in doing so. it is also slower.
