Gildoania Posted February 3, 2012 Share Posted February 3, 2012 (edited) Hey guys havent seen a whole lot about this issue(bug?), seems like a pretty large dps loss when you factor in the two talents, have there been any official responses about it?

VragonBral Posted February 3, 2012 Share Posted February 3, 2012 No not yet from what I seen, and I been checking the Dev Tracker every so often. But I bet somebody may have more info then me. Kinda piffed about how the tooltip say's one thing, and the damage coming out is much less then stated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gildoania Posted February 3, 2012 Author Share Posted February 3, 2012 Yea, not to mention the resulting lowered dot damage, i just figured it would be a more talked about issue, unless people are unaware of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VragonBral Posted February 3, 2012 Share Posted February 3, 2012 It's known. Guurzak put this in his compendium thread: "4) Issues with specific talents 4A) Ion Cell is doing about 25% of its tooltip damage as observed in the field. The actual damage done is laughable and this destroys the value of Supercharged Ion Cell as well as Blaster Augs for ion-specced builds." I think the Dev's know about it, and will be working on it, atleast...I hope so. Since I Spec Ion Cell quite often. And part of me really loves the extra mitigation and saving graces of having that Cell active. Just wish it did the damage it stated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gildoania Posted February 3, 2012 Author Share Posted February 3, 2012 Also is the BH mirror performing the same? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VragonBral Posted February 3, 2012 Share Posted February 3, 2012 At this point I don't know. Haven't seen a single thread concerning the issue so far on the Bounty Hunter section. And have yet to get that Mirror'd skill on my BH. Will continue to level and get it, just to see. I wanna know if they are having the same issue now. If not...I'm going to be so angry. Lol.

Kinvalar Posted February 3, 2012 Share Posted February 3, 2012 Powertech tank-stance proc also deals significantly less damage than the tooltips show. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So with that in mind do other people think this limitation outweighs to benefits of using Ion Cell? or does the focus on shielding mitigate the importance of this somewhat? I know as a SS DPS is not my first priority, but it would be nice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
