HQ's Post 1.20 Patch

[zzapp]

I could use some help understanding HQ's post 1.20 patch.

I understand that now, +1 = +2 =+3, regardless of their marking. What's confusing me, though, however, is the patch notes indicate that all HQ weapons and armor will receive the same valuation uplift = (the old) +2.

If the old HQ was +1 = +5%, +2 = +10%, +3 = +15%, which I think is how it used to work, and based on the notes, then all HQ's today should be +10% for weapons and armor.

If all of my assumptions are correct, what's specifically confusing me is my crab bow HQ is only reflecting a 5% uplift in damage, with NQ damage @ 87 and my HQ @ 92.

Can someone set me straight, please. Am I reading this wrong? Thanks.

1.19 lowered the amount of bonus you got from each tier of HQ. So it was no longer +5, +10 and +15% respectively.

I can vouch that +1 gear I had before 1.20 has had its bonus increased from what it had between 1.19 and 1.20.
