Rapid Shot Mode Bugged
« on: October 30, 2015, 09:00:41 PM »
On a brand new character with a flat +6 AB with a Longbow, I toggle Rapid Shot mode on and it drops to +4, as it should. When actually firing on any target regardless of distance however, the combat log shows I'm only getting a +2 AB to hit. This is also with Point Blank Shot, so close proximity shouldn't be having an effect. I might be missing terribly obvious, but I can't think of anything that would explain the missing +2 AB.

Is there an ab penalty when firing at moving targets? Maybe that accounts for some of it.

There are a lot of things that could account for that. Are you shooting at something small?

Shooting at a wide variety of creatures, I was getting this bug. Deer, falcons, mink, etc. Also, the bug seems to be intermittent. It's now gone after a relog. Not sure what's going on here.

A small animal wouldn't alter your AB in the log it would simply have a higher AC because of their size modifier, iirc

It's a strange bug, I'll play around with it and see if I can replicate that somehow

You're not using rotted arrows by any chance, are you?

That affects damage Blue. But good idea

Believe I might have found the issue and it's probably not a bug. When firing at a target if it happens to flee far enough, it drops my attacks by -2 regardless of attack mode. I'm assuming that's the long range penalty kicking in. I just wasn't aware it was such a short distance away before it's considered long range.
