Tooltip error - forging slingbows

Hi there,

Just wanted to point out that when forging multi-shot slingbows, the tooltip for “quadruple shot” (multishot level 3) states that each shot does 60% the damage of a single shot. It does in fact only do 40% as with all the other levels beyond double shot.

At 60%, we would have another AOE lvl 4 situation, where quad shot guns are actually tie the strongest combination;

  • 1 x 100% = 100% total damage
  • 2 x 50% = 100%
  • 3 x 40% = 120%
    .
  • 4 x 60% = 240%
  • 4 x 40% = 160%
    .
  • 5 x 40% = 200%
  • 6 x 40% = 240%

Damage increase progression would be interrupted, but for numerous reasons this would make 4-shot guns highly sought after; alas they don’t live up to the tooltip promise :pensive:

Please consider correcting the tooltip, or less likely and much preferable change quad cannons to 60% please?

You’re right, the tooltip percentages do not match the actual damage in game, so it’s been added to the bug database.

It is a tooltip string issue, whoever wrote it misinterpreted the attribute value as a “this percentage of damage will be done” when the actual usage/intention is “this percentage “less” of damage will be done”, aka 60% less damage, not 60% of the normal damage.
