I don't think the effects for the Blackened Plate armor are working correctly. Both the effect "Death in Life", and "Usher's Visage" are only doing 2 damage per 3 seconds, when the base is 4 damage per 3 second. Since both effects do raw damage (my understanding is that raw damage bypasses all armor?) this seems wrong. Also, when you upgrade the Blackened Plate Armor with both effects it doesn't increase the damage, or tick twice. It's unclear whether one of these abilities suppresses the other, but it doesn't seem to be the case as far as I can tell.

    I was very much looking forward to doing my 8-9 raw damage per 3 seconds on everything around me, and was very bummed out after getting both the upgrades, and seeing it only do 2 damage per 3 seconds. Tried on multiple enemies, in a couple different zones, but it didn't seem to make any difference.

 

  I apologize in advance if I'm posting this in the wrong area, or should be putting a spoiler tag somewhere or something. I've been a huge Pillars fan since the first one came out, but haven't registered an account on these forums until just now. Loving the game btw!

Hello TheZip,

 

Thank you for taking the time and informing us regarding the item: Blackened Plate Armor, not providing the effects. I've gone ahead and added it to our data-base for review.

 

Cheers.

I've noticed this aswell, The debuff for Ushers visage will show and will tick on enemies if they are within aura range. On the other hand nothing appears to be happening with Death in life !
