Damage Action Boost Does Nothing for Thrown?

I just got done testing on the ship dummy with both LD Damage Boost and Deep Wood Sniper Damage boost, and neither seem to be doing anything for Shuriken base damage. If it is doing anything, it's so minuscule it is completely unnoticeable.

Any one notice or care to check on a thrower if they have one? I'll bug report it if anyone else can confirm it.

Assassin Ranged Power boost seems to work fine, so it's specific to Action Boost damage boosts, not just any action boost.

Been a known problem since the first U26 patch. But the first I heard about it was last month when that off-hand proc list and ROF package was PM'd around.

There is a work-around I had assumed was public knowledge.

It's a pain but can be worth it situationally, the same way the old archer-focus stacks into melee damage could be worth the effort before they fixed it.

Well that's one way you could do it.. if you were a retard who wanted to lose precious DPS every 30 seconds, or you could PM Forest.

Considering how often I am swapping to Tensers scrolls, it's actually unnoticeable, it also ensures I use Tensers and AB together anyway.

You're still the retard king

Oh really? that's funny because you're the one who only just realized he wasn't getting 30% boost yesterday, two months late.  What a sad little loser.

How about this once you just own up to being uninformed and move on, instead of wasting another week trying to rewrite your mistakes and ignorance in a effort to save face and dig yourself in deeper.

Sorry, little late to this party. Does this mean it affects Human Damage Boost as well?

It's in a thread where he's asking. That's pretty much owning up to not knowing in the original post.

No. Read closly it's a thread where he started by telling everyone about a bug, a bug most of us already knew about. So no, not the same thing at all.

Once again why? because you're the one who only just realized he wasn't getting 30% boost yesterday, two months late.  What a sad little loser, you get embarrassed for ignorance about a game mechanic and then spend all the following posts trying to call other people dumb/retard/delusional?

Pathetic  Grin

That's not the work-around, in fact it's a pretty gimp solution that wastes lots of time and tanks DPS, but then I notice that when that was pointed out to you, that instead of just asking civily for some help you get a big chip on your shoulder and post this:

Which is of course totally inaccurate, which you know because at the same time your posting this on the motherboard:

So tell me if I have this right, someone points out how much of a time waster your work-around for the problem is here on the vault, and your response is to make one of your trademark snarky little posts claiming that it's "unnoticeable", right? But then over on the motherboard you post complaining about all the time that is "lost and wasted".

WTF is your problem man? seriously? you are so desperate to never look wrong or in need of info that you would pull this kind of nonsense?

Never mind, I already know the answer: You really are that Vain. I know because you have pulled the same thing several times in the short time I have been reading the Vault.

What I can't understand is how you were so dim that you didn't think someone would notice how you said two totally different things on the two sites for the sake of how it makes you look?


here is the link from DDo forums your quote is from the boobies.

Grand, nice to know you have another sock, davenot.

And obviously I am going to turn up the whining in a mainboard thread for devs and fanbois to see than I am here. In reality, it isn't the end of the world it's mostly just inconvenient for Action Boost. For Adrenaline it's a much bigger deal since it's not a 20 second boost it's a single attack.

Fuck yourself.

So to be clear, you lied.

Also, I'm not a sock, instead I'm just another one of what appears to be many people that thinks you're a tool. I imagine it stings a little less to pretend that they are all one guy/girl.

Please keep in mind that this is two threads now that I have been involved in where you felt the need to attempt to preen and posture like a expert that you're not, and then started insulting everyone when that didn't work out for you.

So, as in the one before, I'm cutting my losses and dropping from this thread. Because while I'm willing to help and share with info with others, I'm not willing to play these games you seem obsessed with.

Wow Noclueclue, you got hammered by the same uptight noob twice in a month, no wonder you want to call him Hags. 

Granted this wasn't as good as when he just destroyed you in that mortal fear thread, but it was still pretty tasty.

You must breath a sigh of relief when guys like him post pompous holier than thou shit like "I'm done with this thread and blah blah blah". Me? I always roll my eyes, when some stiff like Davespot lets a bullshitter like you off the hook, I mean it's not like you will ever learn or stop acting like a stupid attention seeking cunt, but watching you try to dismiss a slam after the fact is half the fun of burning you.

Their loss.
