A sleight of hand unintentionally increases player damage – Game Rant

BioWare Anthem many problems since its launch, the studio has implemented several patches in order to stabilize the game. However, as each new week passes, discoveries continue to be made that require quick fixes. This week, a Anthem The player found a trick allowing players to increase their damage and posted it on Reddit. Unfortunately for BioWare, this trick seems to go totally against the supposed operation of the support system.

Since Anthem"Last fix, the game would have calculated the damage based on the average power level of the player's charge. However, during this calculation, the game does not take into account the number of elements inserted in the load. Following this logic, the simple act of removing a lower-level support item (since there are still no masterpiece or legendary versions) means that a load with less equipment will always a higher average and will do more damage. Thus, the players started to remove their support element to increase their damage. In Anthemless is more.

It seems pretty clear that this is not how BioWare planned to calculate the damage, so it's hard to know how long the hint will work once it becomes public. Anyway, players looking to maximize their damage should start a new load and equip any legendary items or masterpieces they wish to experience the buggy system. This trick has an impact on the scrum, the combos, the ultimate and the procs, which makes it a very versatile boost. Of course, the limitations of HP will have to be taken into account, but players are finding a way to balance their unsupported loads with this new information.

As if that were not enough, other Redditors report that players can offer weapon benefits by shooting allies, which is another aspect of the game that is probably unexpected. A player posted a video showing an example with Striker's Savagery, so this problem is probably still active.

The news comes just a week after a player has discovered that a Level 1 weapon was doing more damage than a last-level weapon at the end of the game. Despite the damage figures displayed on the screen, the Common Level 1 Defender rifle actually killed enemies in fewer hits than the Masterwork Ralner's Blaze Level 45 rifle. Between a Level 1 rifle being one of the most more dangerous game and a lower level of support, it is clear that Anthem There is still a lot of work to balance.

Anthem is now available on PC, PS4 and Xbox One.
