No effect when using epinephrine

I came on to having been attacked, and as usual I looked at the attack log.

I discovered that during the attack I had got some hits in before and after using epinephrine and the damage was the approximately the same.

I am not aware of anything that nullifies the effect other than waiting it out (not the case here)

The hit after using epinephrine was actually lower than my hits before using it.


Xtreme1 fired 3 rounds of his Benelli M1 Tactical hitting Someone in the right arm for 387 17:52:30

Xtreme1 hit Someone with his Diamond Bladed Knife in the chest for 537 17:52:32

Xtreme1 injected a syringe of Epinephrine into his arm 17:52:35

Xtreme1 fired 2 rounds of his Benelli M1 Tactical hitting Someone in the left foot for 337 17:52:37

Thanks in advance.

Are you asking me? I think thats a question for a coder. I do know I should expect to hit someone harder on epinephrine than not on it, according to faq and other info's I have found to include in the item description itself.

The Epinephrine is a Temporary Weapon.
Epinephrine is released from the adrenal glands when the user is in danger or excited. It prepares the user for these situations by boosting the supply of oxygen and glucose to the brain and muscles also increasing heart rate and supressing the immune system. When used in combat, this booster will provide a massive bonus to strength.

I did not see a "Massive bonus" to strength in that attack, do you??? I see a hit not far off from what the other two hits were.

Are you saying an extra +1 damage is a "massive boost". Seems to me you are doing your best to avoid dealing with a potential bug.

Epinephrine is 6x your strength, but that does not translate to 6x damage.

You’re comparing two completely different hits. One is to the arm (unarmoured) before epi. The second is to the foot (70% damage of arm on average, and almost certainly armoured for a further ~40% reduction).

Remove these effects and you’re looking at ~562 for an unarmoured foot shot after the epi, which translates to ~802 damage for the arm shot, which is more than double the damage before epi.

Thank you for a competent and intelligent answer.
