Octavia, Mallet + Resonator doing no damage

[Hixlysss]

I've done this time and time again, and I am convinced it is a bug. When resonator is holding mallet, it's supposed to do damage based on the number of enemies charmed, ontop of Mallet's damage it gets from being shot at, currently it is not doing that. If Resonator picks up mallet before mallet can be shot by an enemy and do damage, neither will do damage. Enemies just get pacified and follow the ball around, only dying if someone else kills them. Clearly this is not intentional, as resonator is, based on it's description, charm the enemies into following it, not pacifying them, ontop of that it's supposed to do at least SOME damage based on enemies following it.

Something here just isn't right, the way it sounds like it's supposed to work is Resonator picks up mallet, enemies chase Resonator and SHOOT mallet and as more enemies chase Resonator, Resonator does more damage to them. That's what I understand is supposed to happen based on the description of the power, so either the way the power works is bugged, which it is as it does no damage unless mallet gets damaged first, or the description has a typo and instead of "Charm to follow" it needs to say "Pacify enemies to follow it."

Basically, her 1 and 2 have no synergy with each other.

Mallet gets damage by being shot at. Resonator makes enemies not attack. The fix would be as simple as making Resonator draw fire from enemies when it gets the mallet, and only charming them while its alone.

Its funny because in conclave, Resonator has a bullet atractor aura so mallet can stack damage.

Really? Interesting. Or perhaps it can "charm" enemies to follow/shoot at it while it has mallet. So normally Resonator makes them passive, with mallet it makes them focus heavily on it, an aggro pull. Or it could just have the bullet atractor aura thing...
