After testing with a mutated pair of yin/yang (aka they're bows), I cannot seem to figure out what it scales off of.
Tests with characters with vastly higher str or ski seemed to yield very similar numbers, although I didn't have Heavy Bow Mastery on both, so the only proper comparision I can make is with my lower str character (21) and the higher str one (70).
Against a buster cannon'd opponent, the lower str character did 21 damage on non-crits.
Against the same target, the higher str character did around 22-23 damage on non-crits.
This makes me think it either 1. scales off something else or 2. scales off STR, but in such a low multiplier that it doesn't matter at all.
If it's the latter, since it goes agaisnt DEF...could it be just a tad higher? As it stands it's -less- than if it were to be divided between the attacks, only getting +2~ damage for a +50 stat modifier is nuts.
But of course, as it stands, I have no idea what it's scaling off of and by how much, so, once that's solved, this can go into Balance Fu.
