cyrus106 Posted December 10, 2014 Share Posted December 10, 2014 (edited) Alright so me and my buddy link4355 were goofing around with his max range max power excalibur build, which does roughly 2500~ to most units. I got my volt and used shock trooper(max rank and max power strength on volt) on him, and noticed a 300% increase in damage for his weapon and powers. I had him ult to test it and indeed it did 7500 damage. So I had my other friend BagelbaronessKira get online and bring her fireball frenzy(also max rank, only intensify on ember) and ALSO apply it to excal at the same time. It stacked multiplicatively., not additivly. His ult started doing roughly 11,000-22,000~. What the actual F***. With those numbers we can assume a third frame would cause it to reach 20,000~. That is a 300% for the initial buff, but I'm unsure how the stacking formula works. increase. that's 900%~ increase. Don't get me started on how strong that could possibly make weapons, will post pictures and more tests as I continue to try out more combinations! Edit: Some people are reporting varying amounts of damage increases from this augment, so that needs to be tested for it's correlation for power strength Edit: It appears the damage stacking is not set static at 300%, but rather it is based of power strength (?) (not confirmed) Pictures!(notice 11,000 with excal): (It appears to be radiation damage, which is fire + electric of course) (Just with Shock trooper) (both I believe) Edited December 10, 2014 by cyrus106 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RoboDoge Posted December 10, 2014 Share Posted December 10, 2014 Interesting. Gotta test it tomorrow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xecty-Eins Posted December 10, 2014 Share Posted December 10, 2014 I think you mean multiplicatively, but yes, this is a fair bit of silliness. Off to test it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eric1738 Posted December 10, 2014 Share Posted December 10, 2014 sounds like a bug, especially the damage multiplier stacking part but this is an interesting find Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Xecty-Eins Posted December 10, 2014 Share Posted December 10, 2014 Absolutely. Very definitely a programming bug and will probably be fixed soonish, but this is going to be hilarious while it lasts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
--Q--JoeTheBanshee Posted December 10, 2014 Share Posted December 10, 2014 I wouldn't at all be surprised by the numbers you could get. Stacking a 14x damage Sonar with Molecular Prime gives you 28x damage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RoboDoge Posted December 10, 2014 Share Posted December 10, 2014 I wouldn't at all be surprised by the numbers you could get. Stacking a 14x damage Sonar with Molecular Prime gives you 28x damage. Roar also, but then you wouldnt have frame with Aug buff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blatantfool Posted December 10, 2014 Share Posted December 10, 2014 Ho boy. Well, if this IS a bug I suggest you guys get out there and enjoy abusing it as much as possible. I bet they'll fix this pretty quickly after identifying the cause so might as well have your fill. Take a few screenshots of the ridiculous damage you manage as a keepsake.

cyrus106 Posted December 10, 2014 Author Share Posted December 10, 2014 Still running tests, damage appears inconsistent at times. This run each aug made the damage increase by 3000 (5000 with shock or fire, 8000 with both. Code appears to change the amount. Continuing testing) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KiteoHatto Posted December 10, 2014 Share Posted December 10, 2014 (edited) Buff mesa with fireball frenzy and shock trooper Have nova fire off her AMD Have volt stack shields Have mesa use opticor and use her 1 on the ball(behind the shields) Please tell me what the hit is gonna be like :D Edited December 10, 2014 by kiteohatto Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cyrus106 Posted December 10, 2014 Author Share Posted December 10, 2014 This sounds like it would be hilarious on mesa's ult. This would be hilarious on a Mesa. She already does 3k damage or so per shot with her ult. Combine it with three of these mods and she will easily become the most powerful single-target destroyer in the game. Full-speed, her ult shoots about 9-10 rounds per second, it seems. 3,000x3x3x3x10. 810,000 potential damage per second. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cyrus106 Posted December 10, 2014 Author Share Posted December 10, 2014 Also why the heck doesn't shock trooper have a visual effect but saryn's aug and ember's aug does? It's depressing show volt some love. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dualstar Posted December 10, 2014 Share Posted December 10, 2014 (edited) Ok, so it works on the obvious nukes. Boring. Lets try have some fun with this. What else does it work on? Vaubans Teslas? Hydroids Tentacles? Zephyrs Tornadoes? Mirages Prism? What if the buff auguments actually increase warframe power strength? Could a speed Nova be buffed to slow enemies down? Would it affect the damage boost you would get out of hitting a Sonar weakpoint? More energy out of Energy Vamp? We worked out it does damage. What else can we use this for?

Testing this as well, so far it only adds damage to damage abilities and damage to weapons Duration mods also seems to direction affect the duration of the aug Edited December 10, 2014 by cyrus106 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Draciusen Posted December 10, 2014 Share Posted December 10, 2014 I for one am glad these mods actually have a use despite seeming excessively copypasta, even if it's only going to last for a short while. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sixty5 Posted December 10, 2014 Share Posted December 10, 2014 Imagine that on Mirage with all the bonus damage she already gets. I could probably reach well over a million damage per second. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
