Charged Damage Mechanics

[PaperTofu]

So they ignore armor, but do they still deal bonus damage vs. specific armor types?

Also, I heard crit % is multiplicative instead of additive, is that true?

1. Yes. e.g. A charge attack from Dual Heat Swords will deal more damage to Infested than a charge attack from a Furax.

2. It didn't used to be (it was additive), but I'm not certain how it works now.

Is it true that daggers' c.attack don't ignore armor penalties?

All charge attacks ignore 100% of armour, including Paris'. But if you're asking whether daggers get their bonus damage vs. Grineer on charge attacks, then yes they do.

"Most Charged attack ignore armor types, they will still deal bonus damage to certain armor types.

The dagger’s Charged attack however does not ignore armor types."

^ I assume that means this is outdated then?

Also, are bosses also affected by armor types or do they just take 100% damage from all sources?
