Widowhai 271% Volatile Vaal - Max 250% on Reliquarian

EDIT: Not a Bug. I did MORE calculation instead of INCREASED and numbers just happened to line up to look like a bug. Can be closed.

Self corrupted a Widowhail bow to 271% Reliquarian. Using a corrupted Rearguard. I have Widowhail ascendancy point allocated for 75% quiver bonus.

Numbers I get vs Numbers I should have.

Numbers I get from the combo from a Rearguard with 2 stats:
-11% Suppress spell damage (corrupted implicit)
-15% Block Spell damage

I get 49% Suppress Spell Damage and 66% Block Spell damage

Assuming 250% Widowhail and not a corrupted 271% like I have, this is:

2.5 X 1.75 X 11 = 48.125 so 49
2.5 X 1.75 X 15 = 65.625 so 66

These match my in game numbers as if I had a 250% widowhail, which I do not

With the 271% widowhail I should have:

2.71 X 1.75 X 11 = 52.1675
2.71 X 1.75 X 15 = 71.1375

I DO NOT have the expected numbers in game and the volatile vaal orb corruption on Widowhail interacting with Reliquarian and Rearguard in some combination is broken and not working.

This is how it'd work if Widowhail and the Reliquarian ascendancy granted "% more bonuses from equipped quiver", but they actually grant "% increased bonuses from equippeed quiver".

Because they're "% increased" modifiers to the same stat, they combine additively, not multiplicatively.

(1 + 2.71 + 0.75) * 11 = 49.06 rounded down to 49
(1 + 2.71 + 0.75) * 15 = 66.9 rounded down to 66

your math is off...

please use POB first before making reports like this.


with a 271% widowhail and rearguard with the rolls you stated... you should have 66 spell block and 49% suppress... just like you have in game

I was looking at it again, and I realized that it just happened to line up with the 250% and the Quiver and the Bow both say INCREASED so they are additive.

So the math is correct and not bugged. The correct math and what I have in game, works out like this:

Using 15% Block spell damage:
- (2.71 X 15) + (1.75 X 15) = 66.9 Block Spell damage

Both Widowhail bow and Widowhail ascendency are INCREASED and are additive. Just a random coincidence in numbers that looked confusing and I used the more instead of increased to calculate.

Not a bug. Can be closed.
