Feedback pulse variation in damage

I cant figure out why, but not in combat the fbp shows 1 damage reflection. But in combat it fluctuates between 1.1 1.2 and 1.4. I cannot for the life of me figure out why it fluctuates. Any ideas?

    It fluctuates with your aux. power, that is consumed-regained with other abilities. I guess is what you're experiencing.

    Let me guess, Vesta, with Aux cannons?

    None of my abilities require aux drain, the aux stays at its 120 mark

    No hazar emitters, no transfer shield strength, etc....? FBP dmg fluctuates with aux static at the 120? Weird. No idea :D

    Conservation of Energy trait? Inspirational Leader trait? MACO shield/Plasmonic Leech giving fluctuating power boosts?

    Lots of possibilities indeed, but the op says he has the aux power static at 120 all the time :D Edit: Although that may well be the real issue here...

    What's the issue? I get first place in CCE with my build. I just cant figure out why I get 1-1.4 variations.

    I mean, the issue would be you having 120 immobile aux in combat...

    None of my abilities reduce aux in any way.

    And how about these? And why you use 120aux if you dont use it in the first place...?

    Here's a thought.... since fbp reflects damage back at the attacker, is it not possible that u are seeing reduced numbers due to the reduced numbers of the attacker?

    How about a trait that modifies science skills? Conservation of Energy?

    Hes spamming heals to game the leaderboard (his boast about 1st place every time)

    My bet is he is using a W-A warp core mod and while his weapons are firing he is getting variations. Those particular variations usually dont show up visually since theres a short delay between power pulses from shunts like that, but the abilities being powered at the time would feel them.
