Stats are more broken than we thought

TB > CAPS!! I couldn't get anyone to head out and hold Uraeus still will I did the testing so I went out solo and did a small test sample. I tested Crab Bow +3 with Silver Arrows VS Weathered Shortbow with Warped Arrows. I used Light Shot and Multishot only in this rotation for both tests: Multishot > Light Shot > Multishot.

Crab Bow +3 with Silver Arrows:


You nock an arrow.
You nock an arrow.
Critical! Your Light Shot hits Uraeus from the rear for 41 points of damage.
Your Light Shot hits Uraeus from the rear for 31 points of damage.
Your Light Shot hits Uraeus from the rear for 30 points of damage.
Critical! Your Light Shot hits Uraeus from the rear for 39 points of damage.

As you can see the Critical Hit Rate + Critical Damage from the Crab Bow +3 is substantial as well as Light Shot normal hits shows a VERY low damage increase. I hope this puts this thread to rest.

P.S. I DO HOPE STATS GET FIXED WITH THE BATTLE CHANGES. I never contested that stats worked properly, just that SOME make more of a difference than others, no matter how minor.
