%boss dmg not working?

I'm just saying is all.. there's this discrepancy around 20k.. that's all I'm saying. Don't know if I should just accept that it's working "properly" or not, just feels like somethings missing here.


Yeah but.. nothing at the highest end or the lowest end you know?

i'll put it in simple terms, if my range is 90~100, with no PDR involved, that means that all my hits will be any number between 90 and 100.
if i add 80% boss damage, my damage would become 90(*1.8)~100(*1.8) 162~180, as long as i hit numbers between those two, it means that 1.8 boss damage is working as intended.

if i instead started hitting numbers like 136, 138, 137, then that doesn't fall in the expected results of 80% boss damage, which would imply something isn't working right. and we would have to calculate how much boss damage is actually working (in this example, it would be probably only 40% boss)

my tests indicate that all my hits fell in the range for 80% boss damage, therefore 80% boss damage is working properly.

as for why i hit between the 2 numbers, that's probability, probability dictates that i'll hit closer to the center of the results, than the corners.

just look at the charts there for example. i think it's called a bell's curve?

edit:
at above, i had 80%, if i grabbed my maximum range and added 70% boss,(247848) it would be a maximum possible damage of 421341 damage, most of my hits were above this number. meaning i had at least over 70% boss damage.
