Do Invisible Kubrows Get Melee Damage Multiplier?

Loki/Ash does share the invisibilty with their doggy, but how about dat melee damage bonus?

Companions recieve the stealth damage multiplier while Smoke Screen/Invisibility is active.

Delightful.

Oh God O_O

Except while under invi/smoke, kubrows won't attack. (Except finish the attack they started before)

 

Paralysis, Blind and Prism work fine though.

[Brimir]

Actually they attack plenty.

Actually they attack plenty.

Really? So far I haven't seen it once.

 

I haven't stopped to see if it happens though...

It might depend on breed or mod configuration but mine regularly ruin my attempts at Stealth Finishers by gibbing the enemy outright.

[Naftal]

After testing a while, it seems that kubrows alert every enemy nearby of its presence when it _starts_ an attack until the whole action is over. This means that he won't receive any stealth multiplier.

 

Damn these dogs are awful, this is the first time I watched their AI in action properly. The way they trigger their attack ability (this sucks, please give them an actual attack instead of one where the dog animation is locked in position but the enemy animation isn't, making them like melee finishers where the enemy can just move out of the way) and the way they alert everything really makes them even worse than I thought they were.

... how undelightful.

as far as I can tell, my stealth kubrow (huras) will attack *alerted* enemy from stealth.  It will walk past unalerted.

From what I've noticed, under it's own invisibility, the Huras doesn't attack until you do (same if you're using the Shade sentinel)

 

If using Loki/Ash, I think they just follow your que on attacks.
