stacking buffs

[BlackenedPies]

Everyone's buff hammer is the same so you buffing is no different from your buddy. If there is no visual indicator for a stack and damage wasn't accurately determined then it's unlikely there is a bug. Gun buffs are very powerful and a buff engineer does more damage than a gunner.

If you rebuff a gun, it just resets the timer. The effects of the buff do not stack. I'm not sure why you're thinking that they do

Lets assume, hypothetically I pilot a Goldfish with a Hwacha...
I take a buff hammer, and so do my three team mate, I buff the Hwacha, I fill up the meter on the left and the gun gains a 20% damage increase for the duration of the time, and then my three crew mates all buff the gun as well... The gun gains nothing more than the 20% I added.
Buff does not stack.
20% is a great increase, but not overpowered, it just separates a 20% difference of a ship with a buff engineer who actually buffs, and a ship with two normally equipped engineers...
Obviously there are many ways your crew can come equipped, but just because one crew uses the buff hammer, does not make it over powered.

However, I think you're not explaining your point clearly "mate"
You have shown a picture of the experience page and stats, which leads me to think you mean the experience which can be gained from buffing, this has been pointed out a few times by one of our community member Ceresbane (aka maximillian jazzhands)
The experience you can gain by being a buff engineer is quite high...

However since leveling up gives no actual benefits beyond a few dyes and cosmetics, I cant see how that is over powered, makes leveling easier but is not Over Powered.

Maybe there is a bug, for this I advise emailing feedback@musegames.com and inviting a Dev to take a look, or of you're available in a couple of hours, I'll happily spectate to see this in action...

However I think your 100% win rate will be from using team work effectively and better tactics than the enemies you're facing.
Otherwise in theory, if you can stack buffs in such a way, you must be getting 2 hit kills with a heavy carronade against goldfish, mobulas and pyramidions, maybe spires and squids too...

Wait, hold up.

The screenshot shows lvl 8 Engie.

But the numbers under MCSWEENY's profile pic indicate a lvl 4 Engie.

it takes time to update into the forum...
I leveled up my gunner to 41 a few hours ago, but it's still 40 here.

Might he be explaining buff/pre buff?

[Kamoba]

Might he be explaining buff/pre buff?

Not likely, he attributes his win rate to this, and comes to us forum "nerds" (his words) for help.

Kamoba, noooooo don't go to the dark side! Don't give in!

Ok, i understand and even i dont fully realise what hes talking about but put it to the test first, maybe its an actual bug.

[Daft Loon]

If its a real bug i want too see if it works on mobula baloon too!!



Edit/addition:
This reminds me of the time i spent swearing that impact bumpers had a flat 25% reduction to all damage and running round at 40% speed for full matches.

[Kamoba]

Like I said, he's welcome to send me a pm, I will.happily spectate to see this in action to help clarify the matter.
But I do ask everyone to understand, I'm not being hostile, its just highly unlikely...

[Lanliss]

I was referring to your nerd comment. Seemed like you were kind of calling him out, which could start a retaliation, which I am sure would rather be avoided by all parties.

[Squidslinger Gilder]

Call BS till he provides actual proof or can demonstrate it. If 4 people are buffing then thats 120% dmg. At that point it is lochnagar rounds in a HF. Unless he is 1 shotting ships left and right, its BS.

[BlackenedPies]

Probably a misunderstanding.
