What are the steps to reproduce the issue as you experienced: Critical damage does’nt exist on heavy voidbent, we made many test. If the opponent is in heavy voidbent = 0% critical damage/ medium and light armor = crit works / 4 pieces of heavy voidbent armor = crit works
We found another thing. If you don’t have “Vicious” on your weapon, there is no bonus damage on the critical hit against a heavy voidbent armor. But if you do have “Vicous” on your weapon, it works but only the amount on the vicious perk. For exemple, if you have 9.5% crit damage with “vicious”, on a 1000 damage hit in neutral, you will do 1095 damage on a critical shot. So basic critical damage against a heavy voidbent armor does’nt exist.
Yeah I wasn’t sure if it was a bug or if Resilient perk was meant to scale so high that it completely mitigates crits. If it’s intended, I think it’s just plain silly that critting is pointless against full resilient.
I think the Problem here is the calculation of the resilent perk. I’m not sure if it’s the intended way to work for the perk.
Resilent scales on the whole dmg and not just on the critical damage.
For example. You hit for 500 neutral dmg and crit for 600. I think resilient should scale of from the 100 extra dmg wich comes from critting. On heavy Voidbent like 100 - 24% = 76 extra dmg from crits.
But it actually scale of the total damage. 600 - 24% = 476 dmg. wich results in less dmg with a crit than with a normal non crit attack. Maybe this value can’t go below the normal non crit dmg. As shown in OP posts resulting in the same dmg with crit and non crit.
I tested it with a friend and he was wondering why he sometimes even does less dmg with crit to me than with non crit hits. (was already 1-2 weeks ago after the resilent “fix”)
If the problem was the resilient perk, why in medium voidbent armor you take more in crit damge than a neutral damage. Instead of heavy voidbent armor there is no difference between neutral and crit damage. Medium and heavy have the same % resilient
I don’t know what Gear you have. You need to do at least around 650 dmg with crits against heavy armor without resilent perk. No idea how much dmg bow does actually. Im the one wearing voidbent armor ignoring them^^.
Medium Armor pvp mitigation is way lower than heavy armor.
