Two troops bugged from a single faction? 🤔 I’m also not seeing any boosted damage when testing in Explore. My Wendigo does 15 - 30 damage per troop. If the entire enemy team has Hunter Marks, then it should add 4 x 5 damage, for a minimum of 35 damage. Instead, I’ve seen my Wendigo deal 16 damage even when 4 enemies have Hunter Marks… Some pictures to help support OP: Base damage is 15 - 30. Against 4 enemies with Hunter Marks, it should be 35 - 55 since the boost is 5x. ![Screenshot_20191008-155720](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex019/uploads/gemsofwar/original/3X/4/f/4f78faad71af81ab5c6b6098acdd601d2e384fc1.jpeg) Instead it dealt 29 damage for this cast. ![Screenshot_20191008-155726](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex019/uploads/gemsofwar/original/3X/8/7/87e697fdf0282b3b6801e33351a9700d5cb20473.jpeg) ---

Yeah, I noticed as well that something is not right because he keeps doing low damage even when all enemies are HM’d. ---

I wonder how many gems were wasted over the weekend due to this bug. 20 damage per troop per cast can be the difference between success and failure in the Delves. ---

I had a few games where the extra damage would have got the whole team Blessed ---

I wonder if this bug is connected to the red cap bug (where non-targeted enemy hunter’s marks affected spell damage) that just got fixed? ---

I took a quick look back at the delve preview stream, and it looks bugged there too at 1:08:30. Salty’s Wendigo had base damage of 11 - 23 but it only hit for 14 damage when 2 enemies had Hunter Marks. ---

Indeed. I am putting this here, just to make sure that developers will actually look at this problem directly. Observe the video at 1:08:30. It confirms the bug. https://player.twitch.tv/?video=v485668164&parent=multisite-business5.discourse.org&autoplay=false ---

I don’t think this was a “known issue” until the OP reported it. So thanks @TheJord85! 😀 (At the very least the issue was added to the known issues list 8 hours ago.) ---

It wasn’t.
