Am I uber now?

[Redfrog]

TP running yesterday, cba to press T so I tried to suicide and ....

I never knew I had another 250+ HP hidden away somewhere

Someone inflicted that damage to a mob and you got it displayd like that? I say because sweating in Nea's I constantly get damage messages.

Just goes to show when your fighting for life you become better and stronger

Nope - the only people on radar at the time were the rest of the TP run team who weren't quite out of the blast radius. And hitting more than one target with one shot means it was definitely a launcher that did the recorded damage.

Suicide was made impossible recently, yes? (by self-induced damage, that is)

You took 410 you didn't hit 3 people, one of which being someone hit with 410 damage... the only possible explanation(s) I reckon are; a) someone nearby died and the chat message came up on your chat b) you have 411HP c) MA screwed up... again, OR, d) photoshop.

Rocket and grenade blast damage has been changed in VU 10.9
Personal damage in pvp areas with rockets and grenades has also been changed.


Features:

You can now miss mobs, hit others or even crit in a single blast.
The damage radius algorithm no longer conforms to damage/N/d (N mobs, d distance), but instead tries to return sum(damage/N/d)=damage
Rockets/grenades now more eco to hunt multiple mobs due to this change.


So your answer:
Eraktor 200 can do max damage (unenhanced) in one crit 446
410.8+1+1.2<446

Also, I found out last weekend, you get damage messages from other players if you have their health bar dragged and on your screen.

A known bug apparently, not officially confirmed.

I'd rather compare it to mother's strength gain while fighting for her child's life

Or my cat fighting for a cookie.

Maybe the max damage is shown even when you had less HP, damage != hp loss¿

You can'T suicide anymore. So watever damage you deal, you will stay alive

 

[Talania]

You can damage yourself but can't kill yourself with grenades now. Nice for PVP if you can kill the person but bad if you don't because they can take you out with Opalo while you wait for your next nade to explode.

Sounds like this is the explanation then

You took 410 you didn't hit 3 people, one of which being someone hit with 410 damage... the only possible explanation(s) I reckon are; a) someone nearby died and the chat message came up on your chat b) you have 411HP c) MA screwed up... again, OR, d) photoshop.

a - unlikely for their message to get posted between two of mine I'd've thought
b - I really really wish this was the right answer!
c - naah, MA would never do that!
d- nope, that wasn't it.

Thanks for all the input folks
