Firstly, there’s a mistake in your post - Dragotaur destroys a column not a row, as you have written.
Secondly, would you provide screenshots illustrating your case?
I checked it just now and it seems to be working as expected for me.
Before destroying 4 yellow gems in the rightmost column:
The bonuses are worded quite poorly. It took me a while to work out as a new player that “x 2” really means “base + (y x 2)” where y is the variable in question (in this case number of yellow gems).
I have always found it quite confusing and mathematically imprecise.
Oh this is even an easily comprehendable bonus. Sometimes it is given as ratios like 3:1
sometimes you can see bonus x100 where it not means any sense.
Delve chest treasure multipliers are the worst!
