Paladin constitution + Steadfast feat bug.

constitution gives the paladin 2.5% hp for every point above 10
the steadfast feat at 5/5 gives the paladin 2.5% more hp per constitution point above 10

so, as an example , my Paladin at level 59 has 26 constitution, which SHOULD be 16x5 = 80% MORE hp.

this is relevant because the paladin gets NO OTHER scaling attribute like bonus damage or armor penetration as a Great weapon fighter would.

However, my paladin gets only 40% more hp and this bonus is NOT APPLIED TO ITEMS meaning it DOES NOT SCALE.

In short , there are two bugs:
1. the Steadfast feat does not work.
2. constitution does not affect items.

    Assuming a Paladin with no Feats , correct.

    However my Paladin has 5/5 into Steadfast which increases the hp bonus from 2.5% to 5% , so 16x5=80, as I have stated in the op.

    This bug is meaningless unfortunately since this % bonus to hp does not actually work, unlike Toughness which gives 9% bonus hp at 3/3 feat points and is actually applied to hp.


    Let's make this very clear.

    GWF get scaling 20% ish damage from strength 16% ish armor penetration from constitution, 40% ish bonus hp from constitution, bonus crit severity and a trickle of crit. And a weapon that does roughly 25% more damage then a Paladin's weapon.

    Paladins get 40% ish bonus hp from constitution, that does not work, no bonus damage from the main stat, a trickle of damage reduction and a trickle of crit, no crit severity. Also a ****tier weapon.

    All I want is my classes ONE bonus to work. (Also the feat directly related to it : Steadfast)

    These two bugs are still present in the game, destroying the paladins one scaling attribute.

    CON doesn't affect item hp addons, since mod 1. Which is a good thing. Besides, paladins have enough hp already, for the amount of 'press 1' dmg they can dish out.

    Ehh, you seem to be missing the point.

    Yes, CON does not affect items, this was established in the op, and it's a bug because the description clearly states that it affects HP, all not some HP. The description is identical to Toughness, which works.

    Then, the Steadfast bug, which should bring the CON bonus to 5% also does not work meaning that, instead of 3 crit severity per feat point like other classes would get, my Paladin gets dung.

    The most important bit that you missed is that, the paladin , as I have stated in the OP , does not get those massive, massive, free perks like flat scaling damage multipliers from the main stat, and by scaling I mean it scales with EVERYTHING not just some base arbitrary number, nor does he get crit severity that scales with everything etc. The paladin gets only an HP buff, that does not work and 5 feat points that imply they should increase (double) the bonus that does not work.
