Hundings Rage set bonus apparently now increases your weapon damage by 21 instead of 21% when using weapon abilities?

This means if your base weapon damage is 109, it will hit 130 when using weapon damage abilities (21 more damage)

Before, if your base weapon damage is 109, it will hit 131.89 (21% more)

Basically, anything over 109 base weapon damage, has had it's damage reduced, especially at V12 when almost every upgraded weapon is over 109.

You should have change it to 50% more or something.

Stamina builds getting the shaft once again...

    Ahem, that's not how Hunding worked.

    it was adding 19% weapon damage FOR ABILITIES. Since abilities only use 1/1.9 of weapon damage, that ment the actual increase for stamina weapon abilities was about 10%. In reality even less, as people reported that their abilities were doing just about 13-16 more damage.

    It didn't increase your weapon attack damage before. If it is now increasing the actual WEAPON DAMAGE stat instead of Weapon ability damage, it may even be a buff..

    How about finally posting a screen of the tooltip, so we actually SEE IT? EU won't be patched for a few hours more..

    Nope.

    Before it increased your BASE weapon damage by 21% when using weapon damage abilities.

    So if your base weapon damage was 100, and you hit 300 with an ability, with the set bonus on, you'd hit 321. 100x1.21 = 121.

    It never increased the damage of the ability. I made this mistake before, I assumed it would increase the abilities damage by 21%.

    I don't know any of this but from other comments it seems you may be wrong anyway, however I'd point out 1.89 is NOT significant and hardly warrants the tired old 'slap in the face' meme.

    They are doing it since the very beginning. They say they will balance the things, and then add some numbers here and there randomly and it's fine. And then you can't post your opinion here, because you are wrong and the game is being perfect.

    I even tested it myself, thinking the 21% applied to the ability, but it only applied to the base weapon damage. I know im not wrong.

    LOL

    And of course the moment they change it again, it remains perfect. Gotta love the sheer amounts of cognitive dissonance these fanboys can dispel.

    Theres a word called balance. But maybe you don't understand. There are a lo of games having melee players really happy, maybe it was because the devs knew how to do their work or just listened to the fans or maybe the forums were not about blaming against people criticizing?

    So, has anyone done a test what damage the stamina builds can pull off after the patch compared to prior?
    Is there an increase?
    Take into account that medium armor passive got buffed from recovery to cost.

    To be honest, despite them saying, you can play which role you want, I wouldn't have high hopes of heavy armor being able to dish out damage in the near future.

    Seriously no one cares? One of the very few set bonuses for stamina builds has been NERFED

    well heavy armor is not ment to dish out dmg... but its dmg mitigation is horrible that needs to be adressed.
