got question about Starship Trait – Active EPS Management from Duderstadt Miracle Worker Science Spearhead i bought lately for 1.2 billion EC.
is Energy Weapon Bonus Demage that supposed to boost my beams dmg is a invisible stats? Because it is not shown in my beam dmg.

    It'll probably be invisible and applied only when one of the listed abilities is used as it's not a permanent boost.

    It probably depends on a couple things. Cat1 or Cat2 damage buff, and trigger conditions. If it has a trigger condition, then your stats wouldn't change until said trigger condition happens.

    Apply X when Condition Y occurs.

    Yes yes I am aware that it triggers after one of suggested skills is used. I tested on beam overload and it shows same dmg values with trait and without it. I always watching weapons dmg in skills windows, that is the only way I believe. Haven't saw any efekt in Energy flow as well, but I don't really care about that part...
    So either "energy weapon bonus demage" is some magical invisible stats that is connecting with visible demage of my weapons in moment of fire. Or the trait simply doesn't work.

    You won't see it in the skills window, on any platform, as they do not show alot of boosts on that screen. You need to look at a combat log.

    I think its borged because when I use it it doesn't feel like more damage at all and the over all numbers don't change.
    C-Store Inc. is still looking for active members on the fed side. If you don't have a fleet feel free to contact me in game @stegi.

    I would suggest running several single player missions with and without the trait, saving each log, you can use either the starbase 234 test or run ninth rule patrol, or whatever maybe the first phase os Stormbound, whatever it is, you don't want other player buff changing things. do 5 with 5 without, then post in the bug forum if you can't see a change. that way the Devs will have something to go on, they can follow the log and see if it is indeed WAI or not
