Hag's Rags + Eyestalk Wrappers do not stack

edited September 2018 in Bug Reports (Xbox One)
Reproduction Steps:

1. Equip Hag's Rags and Eyestalk Wrappers
2. Test ranged combat dmg

Observed Result: Ranged attacks are buffed by 3%

Expected Result: Ranged attacks are buffed by 6%

In the recent patch notes for the preview server on PC, Heels of Fury and the Kiuno now properly stack. Please fix this for Hag's Rags/Eyestalk Wrappers as well.

    I think with the rings it was more an issue of using the same exact ring to stack buffs – like using 2 +5 gravestriker rings. Using a +4 and a +5 of the same type ring works does it not.

    The equipment named (hags/eyestalk or kuino/heels) is not the same type so there is no reason the buffs shouldn't stack. If one said ranged attacks buffed 2% and the other 3% you would expect them to stack since they are not the same item.

    Although I'm not against it outright, I do think that 2x identical items stacking (ex 2x +5 rings) is different than 2 separate items with a similar ability (ex. rags + wrappers) stacking.

    I think the first one is a no brainer, but the second one is a judgement call.

    At the very least it should be more clear in-game when a duplicate item won't give benefit, but I suspect it would take a lot of effort to address that.

    Bottom line: if a 3% melee buff stacks, the equivalent 3% range buff should stack. It's the same HAMSTER thing.

    You underestimate the powers of our dear old friends in the Quality Assurance team.

    well they fixed the melee by adding an annoying white box buff on the buff bar with 1 second consistently on it. annoying asF tbh! but they will do the same for you eyestalker and hags rags folks as well. I doubt the same rings will ever happen as I definitely agree it shouldnt happen.
