Issue 1: Minor Slayer stacks additively with execution bonus (and other damage bonuses).

Here's a simple test I conducted on the Update 12 PTS:

Damage of the Impale ability vs. an enemy in Vet Spindle II:
  • Without Minor Slayer active: 3703 damage above 25% health, 14812 damage below 25% health (all non-crit figures)
  • With Minor Slayer active: 3888 damage above 25% health, 14997 damage below 25% health (all non-crit figures)

For the normal damage, we see a 5% damage increase, as we would expect: 3703*1.05 = 3888.15.

Once we're in execute range, we instead see just a 1.25% damage increase from Minor Slayer: 14812*1.0125 = 14997.15.

This is because Minor Slayer is being applied additively to the execution damage bonus. Instead of 3703*4*1.05=3703*4.20, we instead get 3703*(4+0.05)=3703*4.05. So in the case of Impale, Minor Slayer is only 1/4 as effective during execute, hence why it is only a 1.25% damage bonus instead of a 5% damage bonus during execute.

This is not intuitive and is not what someone reading the tooltip would expect, and it severely reduces the usefulness of Minor Slayer for classes that do a lot of execute damage. I have a hard time believing that this is actually the intended behavior.

(Also, this affects other sources of damage bonuses, but execution bonus, due to its large size, is where this problem is most noticeable and most severe.)

@ZOS_GinaBruno @ZOS_JessicaFolsom @ZOS_RichLambert @Wrobel Could you please look into this issue?


Issue 2: There are inconsistent free inventory checks for players who have Craft Bags.

I've detailed the issue here:
https://forums.elderscrollsonline.com/en/discussion/270778

The most prominent example of the inconsistency is how "Take" fails but "Take All" works.


Issue 3: Mercenary light sash for female characters float a wide distance from the body.

Doesn't appear to affect males.

    They float so high it's dangerous to wear one in Almalexia's presence.
