Dreads Base Crit Damage

[SlyBoots]

so either the ui is bugged/unreliable (it is, it often shows unmodded values and modded values differ without changing the mod setup) but i just noticed that the dread shows a base crit damage of 150%. anyone noticed that and has already tested if this is true?

 

edit: did quick tests, its just the ui... imagine that...

It 'should' be 200%...

 

Remove all mods, throw on a maxed Point Strike and take it through Mercury somewhere, see what it does.

 

Crits 'should' be 180 normal and 450 charged, if its actually 200%.

No, the problem is the UI shows the critical values of regular shots.

Charged shots have better crit values for the bows, especially the dread.

 

Usually when a weapon can be charged it has different crit values, like the bows and the galatine have better crits on charged attacks while the zorens and ichors have better crits on regular attacks. The wiki is very reliable for stuff like this, especially the older weapons.

But I also noticed some issues with the information the UI shows. According to it, my sweeper had 3k damage.

not true, the ui shows 20% base crit chance which is the one for charged shots. did a quick test on terminus and the crit damage for charged shots on grineer heads was 200, regular was 100 (all without mods). gonna do another run for uncharged. false alarm it seems but that had me worried for a moment, apologies.

 

edit: 40 and 80 for regular shots (without mods as well).
