Adjusting Dino Resistance

[Zenith]

So, for w/e reason I'm hitting Rock Drakes (in this example) for considerably lower damage than other dinosaurs/creatures, even with this formula/code active.

DinoClassResistanceMultipliers=(ClassName="RockDrake_Character_BP_C",Multiplier=2.000000)

DinoDamageMultiplier=0.75
DinoResistanceMultiplier=1.50

Any tips? As far as I know MORE resistance = MORE damage taken, according to Ark Server Manager & Google.

I have both the settings enabled, do they interfere with each other or something? Will this affect doing bosses as well then?

Your values work out at 1.125x dmg

The DinoClassResistance multiplier DECREASES damage at higher values, not increases it.

Also those 2 settings DO interact and your values work out at 1.125x dmg

DinoDamageMultiplier=0.75 ------Higher values increase damage
DinoResistanceMultiplier=1.50 ------Higher values decrease damage.

Its also possible that your global settings may interfere with your Class Specific strings, so that's something to be alert to when troubleshooting.

DinoClassResistanceMultipliers=(ClassName="RockDrake_Character_BP_C",Multiplier=2.000000) should be 0.5 if ya want them to take more damage.

Higher=reduced Damage lower then 1.0=more dmg they take

so if ya want them to take 50% more then 0.5 if ya want them to take 90% more then 0.1

Damage controller is diff higher=more dmg they do less=less they deal.

Thanks yeah I figured it out, when it's wide spread (DinoResistanceMultiplier) a higher number increases damage taken, but when specific dino class are used, less resistance means they take more. I hate how the widespread resistance seems inverted (it would make more sense to me for less resistance to make everything take more damage)
