[Resolved] 130% gun damage after swapping places with your clone intentional or design flow?

UPDATE: it seems to have been an issue with loading into the game without having hotfix applied or some random scheisse. we good. If you can replicate this then there might be something wrong for sure.

now that we have target dummy i can finally check some stuff and this one really hurt me bad

130% dmg only persists for 6 7 seconds after swap but it is only on first swap! consecutive swaps will not increase your gun dmg i really did not think this is how it was meant to work, this makes the annointment literally dogshit compared to amara then, i was thinking for sure zane can do 130% because we can maintain it for longer period of time which balances out. apparently zane only gets 130% for same duration as amara who can slam faster than zane can get his clone back. like really is this intentional?

What do you mean first swap? Do you have to wait for digiclone to expire and resummon or you mean it doesnt stack?

you can not maintain 130% lets say my clone is out for 20 seconds and i can swap every 5 seconds that means i can swap 4 times per duration and after each swap my 130% gun dmg shall activate not stack. but when you swap for the first time your 130% dmg will last for ~7 seconds and after that for next remaining swaps you will not activate that. it clearly says that when you swap with the clone it shall give you gun dmg boost but it does not happen every time you swap with the clone, it only activates on first swap and remains for said duration.

So with CCC, you are harming yourself with this anoint by not refreshing your clone with a new one. Is that what I’m getting from what you are saying? If so that sounds bugged. Ammo regen anoint, also suffers this issue BTW. Once CCC procs, ammo stops.

Can I ask you to check one thing on this?

Can you do this test, but swap weapons between clone swaps.

Because I feel like my Hellwalker does get the buff multiple time BUT I switch a lot.

BUT. That was Wednesday. So.

Dang-naynay, this is either a glaring oversight or a terrible design choice.

Which ever, I hope it gets addressed.

okay this is really weird i have re ran a test after hours of regular gaming and my result now varies i have specced into only clone and borrowed time after the 130% boost goes away i swap again and re acquire the boost. i literally have no idea why it did not proc when i was fully specced i hope it is was false alarm.

re test results gun dmg 500 on the body after deploying the clone dmg 500 after swapping with clone dmg 1151 (which is 500*2.3) for about 7 second ticks in my head after than dmg 500 second swap dmg 1151.

now i will fully spec and test it again i will lose my mind if it stops procing.

i have fully specced and replicated the results i can steadily maintain 130% dmg boost for what should be 15*1.6=24 seconds i can achieve 7 swaps which means i can swap with the clone about every 3.5 seconds.

i still can not calim if there is anything particular in hitman that can break this but i just hope it was one of those load into the game so fast that not everything was applied kind of occasion.

so everybody chill we can do 130% dmg for max 24 seconds raw and more with ccc or good misfortune.

I signed on when the patch dropped and my clone disappeared the moment I went down like barrier.

Was upset about it, but reloaded and it stopped doing that.

Not sure what caused it or if I missed something or what, but I wouldn’t be surprised if it was a random glitch.

yeah i am just glad it is not persisting because that would be a gut punch. 130% on swap is zane’s endgame raiding answer paired with 100% dmg on ASE. that we you always stay in double dmg range. since it works with my hitman build i am a happy bunny. but i did spend whole 3 hours contemplating creating amara and selling my soul :smiley:

I was gonna say, this would really confuse me about how my Killavolt farming went

since i was not able to replicate this i will ask for post to be deleted since it was a one time bug.

Closed as the issue appears to be resolved (see OP)
