    Known issues

    • Some weapons don't do any damage at all as other legacy code effects these. We need your help to track down all weapons which currently do not cause damage.
    • Damage indicators (numbers above enemy heads) do not always display.

    APU is completely broken.

    I've just logged my APU outside Jeriko and tackled some 3/3 mobs. It took approx 15-20 holy lighting or holy frostration to kill them.

    I also tried to barrel them with holy pestilence and it didn't do any damage. There is also no 'green mist' despite a successful cast. I even tried to barrel myself with no damage being inflicted.

    Yes it seems to be broken because all the NPCs are no reference yet. The balance is made for a target with no armor and just a healthpool of 1400 hp. The armor and resistances generated by skills (CON) are still a mess. We do have introduced a new special NPC to test the damage made by weapons.

    APU more than likely doesn't work properly because it has to go through more paths/stages than normal weapons and a whole extra/different set of influences/code affects it (something shared with drones).

    I'd also point out that the settings mentioned by Z are a base-line to work from with the new code. They can be changed and/or the settings for NPCs can be altered.

    Thanks for the feedback, I'm a die hard APU fan and have been since NC1, I've dabbled with other characters but always end up back at the APU.

    I'll keep testing on my tank though.
