To keep from spaming the forums with multiple bug reports on this one ability, I'm posting all 4 issues in this one thread.
1: Black Arrow scales off both RAP and MAP, seemingly off of which ever one is higher. With no aspects on I have: 4721 RAP and 4326 MAP and Black Arrow ticks for 900 damage. Turning on Aspect of the Dragonhawk I have: 5021 RAP and 4326 MAP and BA ticks for 909 damage. Turning AotDh back off and turning on Aspect of the Beast I have: 4721 RAP and 4758 MAP and BA ticks for 901 damage.
Question: Is this auto selecting of the higher "Attack Power" intended? Considering that it would be the only such hunter skill I know of to do such a thing it just doesn't seem like it is supposed to.
2: Black Arrow is not affected by Hunter's Mark. Simple test for this is to shoot a dummy with BA watch what it ticks for then put up Hunter's Mark and hit it again with BA. There SHOULD be a difference as 300 RAP from Hunter's Mark is the same as turning on AotDh but there ISN'T a difference in damage ticks.
3: Black Arrow is not affected by Noxious Sting. The order of which Serpent Sting and Black Arrow hit the target has zero impact on this. Black Arrow ticks for the same damage it would as if Serpent Sting was not on the target at all.
4: Black Arrow is not affected by Sniper Training. With talent points in everthing BUT sniper training I get ticks of 900. With 3 talent points in Sniper Training, and moving constantly to avoid getting the ST buff I get 900 damage ticks (as I rightly should). When standing still so that I have the ST buff, then firing a Black Arrow at a target I STILL get 900 damage ticks even when I have the ST buff for the entire duration that Black Arrow was on the target. When I have the Sniper Training buff my Black Arrow SHOULD be doing 6% more damage then when I do not have the buff up.
TL;DR Black Arrow seems to be bugged 4 ways to Sunday... Could yall blizzy folks please take a gander at it and see if its all kosher?
