How does the (up to 33%) damage bonus work? Like a tac console or like an attack pattern?

    I believe it works off of base damage.

    ... when it works, that is. T4 Rom rep passive kinda kills it.

    It is painful trying to search for an answer on it...heck, even what it affects often results in conflicting answers, meh.

    Probably one of those things where you'd need to grab a friend and do some low damage simple/unbuffed attacks and manually parse the combatlog using the relevant formulas to see whether it was applied before or after weapon power.

    not only does it boost 33% damage it also boosts drains from target subsystems by up to 33%!


    too bad its useless now with the tier 4 rep thingy already mentioned.

    I think i tested it during season 5? And its was a flat 33% increase to your final damage (ie you hit for 1000 damage, with max SA it was 1333 damage). But that was what 8 months ago?
