no HP modification with off-hand weapon

[Usirim]

Hi,

neither the RoL nor the ShaF provedes Health point modification when equipped off-hand. HP always stays on same value.

Using ONLY off-hand weapon modifies HP.
BC modification works always fine, AD and AC mod too.
I don't know if its planned this way, using 2RoL provides 2x HP mod on hit or kill (I ♡ this btw).
Actor conditions works for off-hand weapon too.

So HP mod is the only modification which won't work for off-hand when using 2 weapons and its with version 0.7.0 and 0.7.1a.z

I just verified this is a bug. Great catch. My dual wielding RoL is maxed out on both the one-handed and dual wielding skills, yet the HP boost from the second RoL is not applied.

Nice catch indeed ! I checked the code, and saw what we need to do to correct this.
Will submit a patch soon, unless someone elses does before me

This is a bug ???

Huh

I always thought it is the way it is, that off-hand weapon doesn't modify HP...

Yes, I thought we had this conversation before and were told it was supposed to be that way, sirt of how the criticals won't stack/combine.

I'm not understanding what you mean by hp modification. When I jyst used 2 RoL I got 5 hp back upon hitting my opponent.

Crit doesn't work in off hand either. I have both dual wield and specialization, and I do not get crit skill unless crit wep is on main, which means rol on off hand so no HP bonus.

This has been discussed at yesterday's dev team meeting.
The lack of HP boost is acknowledged as a bug, and I am working on the fix.

I tested the "crits" situation just now, and noticed the following (with Dual-Wield level 2):
#1 - Having a critical-enabled weapon in the off-hand, while having nothing in the main gives the same stats as having the weapon in the main hand, and nothing in the off-hand.
#2 - Having a non-critical enabled weapon in the main hand, while having a critical-enabled weapon in the off-hand gives no access to critical hits.
#3 - Having two different critical-enabled weapons equipped gives you the multiplier of the weapon in the main hand, and the critical chance as the sum of both.

In my opinion, #1 is correct, #2 should give you the critical chance & multiplier of your offhand weapon, and #3 should give the highest multiplier of both, and the sum of both critical chances.
If you only have dual-wield lvl 1, it should work with critical multiplier & critical chance divided by 2.
With no level of dual-wield, you should get 25% of the critical multiplier & critical chance.

However, there are some special things happening with criticals, and I think it deserves a discussion with the team to identify the desired behavior.

@Duke:
with HP mod I mean that when using the Rapier of Lifesteeling with off-hand it doesn't add 5 points to your Health points, as it do when you use it with main hand.
Hope this time I manage to give the description without misleadings and apologize for the irritation.

@Usirim : don't worry, we understood that right. Fix implemented, just got to push it to version control for approval by Oskar.
