Thread: What exactly changed damage types with new looted compontets?
I made a Adv Laser with bugged stock and unbugged scope and now have blast.
Neost.
the rifles and dl44's show blast damage
the rifles are doing damage to the target
the pistols arent... either a) the scopes are bugged but the stocks fix damage
or b) only pistols have the 1 point of damage problem..
any ideas?
I can clarify what is happening.
Firstly, this is obviously bugged but let me explain the side effects:
Using either new looted stocks or scopes change the weapon damage type. Kenetic weapons go into energy. Energy weapons go into Blast.
Weapons that were Kenetic that are now energy will work fine but with energy damage.
Blast damage converted weapons will deal out damage of 1 if one loot component is used.
Blast damage converted weapons will deal out normal damage if two loot components are used.
Hence using both a Scope and Stock will enable you to have a perfectly functional weapon. The weapon will say Blast, but the damage produced will have no type.
Having just a Scope or just Stock will make a Blast damage weapon that will deal damage of 1 unless the weapon has elemental damage, in which case it will deal out elemental damage +1.

Just made an Elite Carbine last night with a Cells and accidentally used a looted stock as well.
Whew! Glad to know it will work... I sh*t myself when it said BLAST damage.![]()
