[1.00 Bug] Break

from Elemental Forums

Break, in the assassin tree, is not doing damage. While it is removing armor for three turns, its tool tip also says it does damage.

Yeah, I fixed this back in the beta awhile back, but I don't think it was noticed.

Replicators - your fix will actually not do the correct damage, you only want to do this modifier.

        <GameModifier>
            <ModType>Unit</ModType>
            <Attribute>DefendableDamage</Attribute>
        </GameModifier>

The problem that arrises with the way you did it, is say versus a banshee, you will actually not do any damage with break fix, because the damage type you are doing is only piercing. It does take the combined effects of all the damage types, but only damage as if it were a club.

The above just specifies the attack is to be made and all damage is done according to their damage types.

Here is the fix that I had back in april.

No problem.

Awesome, thanks guys. In your fix, does the damage apply after the armor is removed, or before? Seems like it should be after, as it is an end-of-the-line trait, and thus should be strong.
