DamageTier too op
Hi. I have a serious problem :) I'm running an Annunaki Server + Dragon Gods + some Stats adjustments for dinos. Basically there are Dinos on my Server (like Wyvern or the god) that have a lot of HP/Resistance/Armor.
The DamageTier Setting is nice but 5% HP per Shot is very much too high. When I increase Base Damage everything else gets onehitted. (Vanilla Dinos or lower Dinos than Wyvern etc.)
Even if I increase Base Dmg there are Saddles out there, that increase Dinos Armor and I do almost no damage to them.
As you can easily place 5 or 10 or 20 of the guns on your base, depends on your will to farm the ressources, you would just onehit every dino with 1 or 2 shots if you have DamageTier enabled.
Could you make it like we can set a percentage we like?
Example:
0.5% HP DMG PER SHOT
+ BASE DMG
vs
20kk HP Wyvern
100k DMG + BASE DMG PER SHOT x 5 Turrets = 500k+ DMG every 2 seconds
vs 2kk other random Dino
10k DMG + BASE DMG PER SHOT x 5 Turrets = 50k+ DMG every 2 seconds

And the DamagetierMultiplier would ignore Armor, so base damage may be lowered but it would still do lots of dmg.

Is this possible for you to change the way how you can setup DamageTier?

ok cool :D Where is your group page? :P
And I found a way to live with it on my server, still onehitting every lower dino but it seems that even when 20 of your turrets shoot they don't do 20x5% damage. But would still be very nice if we could change the percentage!!

i cannot make a fully dynamic ini, due to the way it behaves i have no choice but to create presets at the moment.
