Kubrow Damage mods ignoring Elemental Damage mods

[AreeSoothsayer]

Examining the damage done with normal melee attacks and comparing them to the damage of ability mods shows a greater difference than their should be,

I chose Helminth as the test companion, unlike the others it has 2 attack mods with static damage values.

Base Kubrow Damage: 304

Trample Base Damage: 160

Proboscis Base Damage: 100

Since the Companion damage does not show up for players (I gave up requesting that QoL feature years ago) I had to watch the reduction in health per attack.

 

I chose Steel Path - E Prime for the location, the trample mod has a tendency to send enemies flying high into the air. This happens 100% of the time in the Virtual area, only most of the time in real missions. It still took several attempts to record without the enemy flying high into the air.

This testing was in solo, attempting to do this as a client failed due to trigger happy bombers.
