Stealth kill Affinity multiplier seems broken

[(XBOX)Catch Lightning 23]

Well it sounds like it is improving 😀. Maybe they'll fix everything eventually. Atlas and Equinox reworks when?

A long time ago they removed stealth multipliers for the first like five seconds of an enemy spawn to prevent saryn from getting fat stealth multipliers.

Stealth Kills are now only taken into consideratiojn if the Killed target is Unalerted, and entire health value is Gone within one single damage instance

Putting them to sleep ensures they cannot become alerted even from multiple damage instances up to a damage threshold, but once they wake up, they remain unalerted even tho you took out half their hitpoints. it's only if they receive a damage tick that does not kill them, that they become alerted.

Multishot Mods/Base Multishot weapons cannot achieve stealth kill because of this, unless you put the enemies to sleep before they can become alerted.

EDIT: Sometimes, even if the above conditions are met, Stealth multiplier is gone because some random enemy somewhere received a damage tick while they were alerted (I am not sure if the damage tick has to come directly from an action from you, but I've seen it happen with exploding barrels).

This one is not quite true.  My Daikyu has multishot mods and I'm still able to get stealth kills with the multiplier.  Same with multishot on Snipers.

If, One Instance of your multishot is enough to Kill the enemy in One instance of Damage, then yes, as I've already mentioned in my post.

If the enemy does not die from One single instance of damage, then it won't count as a stealth kill as it becomes alerted. I probably worded that phrase wrong, but my initial statement holds true.

Hi guys.

Took a break from WF - so, was this issue finally fixed by the recent patches?

I don't know when, but it appears to be fixed. At least I was able to gather stealth kills with Ivara in Prowl with a silenced weapon.

Hi.

Ok. Might as well try it out one of these days. Thanks.

It's fixed. Still some issues with non-hitscan multi shot built weapons (except bows thankfully) and shotguns of any type not procing the affinity multiplier.
