Well, thanks for daring to enter the lion’s den, I hope a bit of mauling won’t dissuade you from returning.

Similar bug reports where the issue was forwarded, never to be heard of again:

> Xbox It shows 34+48 points of damage, just in this photo, but always takes 21 points less than it shows. It suppose that will be 34+48=82, and damage was 61. It always happens. Always 21 points less than it shows. In all kind of events.

Similar bug reports where the issue received the full apathy treatment:

> So VoO has always worked this way: Displayed damage +1 + mana from all other allied troops.

Second screenshot shows what should happen. Orpeus is supposed to do 28 (his damage as shown on his card) + 53 bonus damage (as shown in the boost ratio tab) This adds up to 81 damage Now we go to screenshot 3 and there is shown the damage actually …

> Platform, device version and operating system: Steam, Windows 7 x64 Screenshot or image: What you were expecting to happen, and what actually happened: I’m in Drowned Grotto, in the second room of the Sunken Fleet event, at level 50. I bought only Tier I for the Event. Vodyanoi was the only surviving enemy. I don’t think it had any status effects. It had 54 Life and 3 Armor – I know because I actually wanted to test the Boost Ratio, to see if I understood it correctly. Hero weapo…

It feels unlikely that anything will change this time around. Maybe it would be easier to just add it to the Known Issues list? Might prevent the next player from wasting time by reporting it yet again in a few months.
