Shadower

Why am I sometimes doing 252 damage?

It seems my Shadower's attacks sometimes hit for 252 damage. No idea why this is. It only seems to happen while I'm using shadow buddy.

Also, I tried it on a number of leafre enemies. It didn't happen against beetles, it happened once or twice against dragon turtles, and it happened frequently to cornians.
On top of all that, my venom sometimes hits 120 damage.

So... can anyone shed light on why this happens?

Yeah, if one of your regular skill hits are misses (not your shadow partner's attacks), that shadows partner's hit will be 1 since 70% of a miss doesnt make sense and just defaults to a 1.

A normal Shadow Partner "miss" hits 1 - chances are, you're using a Bucc character card or something with a similar effect that adds 251 damage. The venom has already been explained.

I'd like to add something regarding the people making fun of the "Shadow Buddy" mistake, but I'd probably get suspended for flaming, so whatever.

It's not your venom that hits 120 its your Potential / Nebulite that does that. The same happened to me.

its because you have a shadow buddy instead of a shadow partner

You're right.

Does anyone know if the damage is only client-sided? Seems like it SHOULD be.

If I recall, that's the name I invented for it before I knew what it was actually called. I haven't really bothered to start calling it by the correct name. Meh.

You should get a partner instead of a buddy- [i][b]buddies just stand in your way.[/b][/i]
