Dusk Wrote:A long time ago, Arrow Bomb did 50% damage to the monster that was hit by the impact and its damage output was total crap. My understanding is MapleStory only allows skills to have a single damage variable, so to apply the damage modifier, they made Arrow Bomb a 100% damage skill with a IA/Pierce-like modifier of 0.5x damage on impact and 1.3x damage on splash. They never bothered to change this when they changed Arrow Bomb, and to this day it works like a 100% damage attack with a 1.5x multiplier.
I don't think this effect will be noticeable after Big Bang unless someone can break the damage cap with Arrow Bomb, since the crit system was changed to be multiplicative, so it doesn't matter if they changed Arrow Bomb or not.
Post-Big Bang Arrow Bomb hits 310% on every hit. There is no impact damage, they removed that a long time ago during the last wave of rebalancing.
