Initiator only gives +1 multi-hit

[heavy gull]

Base game, no dlc. Tooltip says +2 multi-hit if you haven't killed anything this turn. Reality is it's +1 multi-hit.

Just to make sure, are you already at the max multihit?

[heavy gull]

What's the max? I have +5 without initiator. End up with 8 attacks with hand crossbow with initiator, 7 after killing.

The max is +5, hand crossbow should cap at 7, the fact that you're getting 8 is very strange

[heavy gull]

So... different bug? :p

Hi, the maximum bonus you can have for multihit is 5, but that's just the bonus

if you take the skill "Magic missiles" for the Wands that has 4 multihit without any modifier, you can have 9 multihit then
if you took initiator while already having a modifier of 5 multihit, having initiator on or off would not change anything, since you already reached the maximum without the perk

so what happened might be that you had 4 multihit modifier without initiator, which would explain the +1 difference having it on or off

[stuck kelp]

but wouldn't explain hand crossbow quick shot being 8 then going to 7?

[stuck kelp]

can you get a screenshot of hand crossbow with 8 attacks?
