MMO-Champion BlueTracker - [Bug] Hunter 2pc T9 bonus

2009-08-26 18:42:05

I've run some tests on the hunter 2pc bonus on the latest PTR and it looks like the mortal shots fix is working, but serpent sting crits still seem to be based off the spell crit multiplier (50%) instead of the physical crit multiplier (100%). Given that every other hunter ability that crits is based off the 100% multiplier, it would seem logical that serpent sting crits not using this multiplier is probably a bug and not deliberate.

These are the numbers I got from my quick tests:
120 ticks- min 422, avg 525, max 583
75 crits- min 721, avg 897, max 997

Since Serpent Sting does spell damage, it would use the spell crit multiplier and not the physical damage crit modifier.

Re: [Bug] Hunter 2pc T9 bonus

Some of your points have been pretty convincing and have been taken into consideration. While this is more of a design change vs. a bug, I have found that it should in fact be a 100% critical damage multiplier. This will be corrected for 3.2.2, but may not be in a build until next week.
