I got my first taste of what a bugged stun baton can do to a person. It will literally eat you alive. I had 39% stun armor, and psg and it ripped me up.
By the way a bugged baton is one made from Acklay bones in which the minimum damage exceeded the maximum damage and resulted in the min damage being higher than the max damage on the stun baton. I would imagine this would apply to any weapon that could be made with acklay bones.
The good news is after all this time playing and fighting fencers, I've never seen one in action in a pvp battle.
The key to knowing if they're bugged is the damage they deal. Look in your combat log and check for the amount of damage they're hitting you for. I was getting hit for 691-692 every hit before armor kicked in. The damage should only vary between two points.
They fixed -1 dot weapons, I just hope they realize that the existing bugged weapons may be even more devastating post cu/rb.

THese weapons were already declared illegal. People should not have them and who ever does can get in a heap of trouble for having them if a CSR gets wind.

What's not possible?
And to the first poster, I'm full aware that they're not legal, but the problem is people can always plead stupidity because it's a valid argument.

With Bugged Batons, It's not the Maximum Damage that counts, it's the Minimum, and as far as armor is concerned The MINIMUM Damage is what got through the armor and Mitigations without being resisted. I had one before I had it turned and it was a simple 150 max 155 min, I was hitting everyone for 342 damage EVERY hit. The PSG's are toast after about 4-5 hits from a HealthHit anyway.

Thus, Why they are deemed Illegal... They don't follow the normal rules and algorithms of Damage reductions and penalties and the such...

Cliff. It never broke because it never gave you protection. You need to unequip and re-equip every time you shuttle/log in.
I think you'll be buying some soon if you do so.
I go through 1-2 a night easy, but adk psg's slow that down tremendously. They're not worth it without LS protection anyway, imo.
