Hello ArchangeLTyraeL,
thank you for sharing your details with us. As described in your inventory, each upgraded BN-4 increases its accuracy by 2%. That means if you upgrade all your weapons to Level 2, you have an accuracy of 72% instead of 70% (considering only BN-4s, no other weapons or relaystation). This 2% increase in the accuracy results in a damage increase of roughly 3% (the effect on the damage is larger than 2% because you add the 2% not on a base of 100% but on a base of 70%). For a average base damage of 650, this means you deal 20 damage more. Continuing on this, if you manage to upgrade all weapons on Level 4, you would have a base damage of 710. Of course, the effect is larger for critical hits. Critical Hits will deal around 30 damage more if you can level up all your weapons.
We do know that this is a hard goal to achive but upgrades on the weapons and firewalls are meant as a real endgame achievement and to give you the little edge needed to win a fight. The progess is slow, but you can always see the progress if you look at your accuracy stat. This number slowly rises as you upgrade your weapons.
If you are afraid the skills do not work, be assured they work. Let me calculate it for you: Imagine they do not work, you would only have your base damage. This is calculated by accuracy * (base damage of ammo) * (amount of weapons equipped). In your case 0.7059 * 10 * 74 = 552.366. If you now add your damage bonus (that only comes from your damage skill) you get 552.366 * 1.24 = 684.93384. Then a random factor is applied to this number to make your damage fluctuate to higher and lower numbers. Always keep in mind that if you damage other players, your damage will always be lower since other players have a defence skill that reduces their incoming damage. If you now upgrade your damage skill, you will have a damage bonus of 1.245 which results in 552.366 * 1.245 = 687.69567. That shows that your damage skill will increase your average base damage by ~3. The effect for a critical hit is of course higher (~4.5 for you).
I hope that clarifies all questions. If you have further questions, feel free to ask them.
Hi admin;
I have a problem. Before the last event my minimum firepower was 600 and my maximum firepower was 1024.
I upgraded my 6 bn4-1 weapons to bn4-2 at the event. after this weapon upgrade, my minimum firepower went up to 602 and my maximum firepower to 1026.I'm using 74 weapons and a critical improver lvl-4.
I was thinking about buying a package at this event, but after 6 weapons upgrades during the event, when I saw my firepower wasn't increasing, I gave up.It doesn't make sense to me to spend 18 bn4-1 for a + 2 firepower increase.I think the weapon upgrade isn't working and I can see that problem from most players firepowers.I have credit for my character skill increase but i am afraid it will not work. So didn't upgrade. (Credits: 327,599,695)
I finished 12 Darknet Beta in 6 days, i only received 2 bn4-1
I even raised my 2 bn4-1 weapons and added 1 more bn4-2 my inventory, but my firepower didn't change. (min 602 - max 1026)
I write all the features about my character: ArchangeLTyraeL
