Banuk Striker (Hunter) Bow Damage Bug

[eyeONE]

I found out that the damage of the banuk striker bow doesn't count correctly when you hit a vulnerable point with it. I have 115 damage on the Hardpoint Arrows (best arrows for hunter bow) but it only does 49 damage when I hit a crit-spot with it (even if my focus tells me it's the machine's weakness). But when i just shoot anywhere on the machine it does 115 damage.
Please fix that!

Does that part have damage icon(arrow) or tear icon(shield) when you look at it with your focus ? Or freeze, fire, shock ?

The creature database also tells which part is weak to what kind of damage.

yeah of course i looked which part is vulnerable to Hardpoint Arrows with Hunter Bows or Precision Arrows with Sharpshot Bows. It's the same type of damage, so it should work, but it doesn't. The Precision Arrows of the Carja Sharpshot Bow do higher damage to these points, even though i have a higher damage number on the Banuk Striker Bow.

I'm getting the same bug. The actual damage done doesn't reflect the new stats.

There's no difference between my Shadow Hunter Bow and Banuk Striker Bow.

[RendTheory]

I think even more specifically its that mods don't apply on the canuk bow despite being shown they do.

hmm well, at least it does the job when you use the special perk of the striker bow. push & hold the left mouse button when aiming until a little cross appears, that tells you that the bow is fully charged, here we go. deals a ton of damage!

Ah! so it wasn't a bug! We just didn't know how to use it lmao

yeah it seems like we just didn't know ^^ but it still makes no sense to me, that it deals less damage (49) on crit-spots, but full damage (115) on non-crit-spots when the bow is not fully charged.
