RIVEN AND MODS that provide multiple less than one means:

[jamesthesecond]

If a multiple riven or mods says x .56 than means your will get less than 100% of the normal damage, right? If that is so, I request that dev note that in the riven or mod by using the color red or other means for those who are color blind, maybe italics.

Correct.

"Changed the Faction Damage Mod (includes Bane, Cleanse, Expel, Smite, Railjack, and Riven Faction Stats) descriptions to use multiplier instead of percentage based stat formatting. Damage values have not changed! Just the way they are communicated.

For example: Smite Corpus (at max rank)
Was: “+30% Damage to Corpus.”
Now: “x1.3 Damage to Corpus.”
"

"This change better communicates how Faction Damage is calculated, since calculation occurs when you hit the enemy, as opposed to when you shoot like other damage sources (since it needs to know what Faction is being hit). For that reason, multipliers apply to final damage as a whole and not just part of the formula! "

That what I thought. Hence the recommendation, because in the trade channel their are mods/rivens that give example (x0.56) which could be confusing and make you think that you are gaining 56%, rather loosing 44% of the total damage. Before their was - (negative sign) to highlight the negative part of the mods/rivens.

Well if they do the math, it does give smaller number.

True,true.but in the trading channel things could be misread.
