what happened to + damage display on inventory sheet?

[kendo]

while pretty minor in the overall scheme of things right now, I find this new bug very annoying. especially when I cannot think of any reason it should have been touched with the updates.

on your inventory sheet, you now see only the base damage of your weapon. the +damage amount for strength bonus, weapon enhancement, etc is no longer displayed. the only time I can see the bonus damage on my barbarian is if I unequip all weapons. it shows the + str damage for bare hands.

just another one of those little things you don't realize how much you glance at it until it's no longer there :)

at least the +TH number still shows up

I hadn't noticed this at first but after your post I went back and checked, and sure enough all the bonus damage is gone! That's a real shame, as I used to mess with my power attack stance and other buffs to figure out how much bonus damage I was going to do. With lighter weapons the bonus damage very quickly overwhelms the base weapon damage, so knowing that is very important.

I hope Turbine fixes this soon!

exactly. as a more casual player that doesn't have the gear to always hit everything on a 2, I frequently check my to hit bonus and damage bonus with different item setups to see what might work the best for the quests I am running.

just one of those QoL things you don't realize how much you use. hopefully will return soon

Yea, preferred the old display method too.

It was especially useful to quickly find out how much damage one could stack from buffs/items (and verify whether some stuff are, in fact, stackable... I didn't know Good Hope doesn't stack with Inspire Courage until I played around with this). I use it to compare how much damage different toons are doing at a quick glance with a quick login/logout. No need to resort to an excel spreadsheet or whacking on the dummy to guess at the floating numbers.

Whenever I get a fresh toon to 20, its a quick benchmarking tool to figure out whether the dps is reasonable and how much more could be added with specific gear.

The new display method isn't very informative. It shows the base weapon which can already be figured out by examining the weapon itself. Pretty much means all damage calculations now have to be done on spreadsheets.... not something I would always like to do in a game.

i know this was change on a previous update but I miss seeing your actual dc for things such as trip.
rather than trying to work out what it is from all your racial, feats, enhancements and gear :/
