I was killing some mateons in order to finish a quest (I'm trying to achieve that quest medal), when i noticed that something was wrong with arrow bomb. Often, I did over 5k damage and the monsters weren't killed (Mateons have 2080 hp). Here are images of the bug: Attack: link After attack: link I didn't have attack arrows (or arrows at all) in my inventory so it wasn't the problem, and anyway- attack arrows can't explain 5.8k shot which doesn't kill a monster with 2k hp. Now, does this bug happen only in this map/monsters, or does it happen while training on other monsters as well? EDIT Another one: Attack: link After attack: link

Did you notice any change in the HP bar?

Where'd the other Mateon Go? There was two in the 1st picture.

Aye, seems like you did kill one Mateon and had one unlucky shot, leaving the other with low HP. This is just looking at the Screenshots however. If the other Mateon just walked away or something, and you are correct that there is a bug, it is like the PKB bug already noticed.

Probably incorrectly displaying client-sided damage again.

i notice something like that at sakura celions sometimes the die with a 900 arrow and sometimes they dont with a 2k arrow and thier hp is 1100 I was thinking monsters are generated with random hp that is like a certain percent of their base And maybe all those bowman changes they said were done was just to make us FEEL good

then my last option seems more reasonable, but mateons are funny creatures any way you never know

It might be the impact dmg. It has been altered from 40% to 130%, though maybe it's only visible dmg, and not the actual dmg applied to the monster!

I think it also happens the other way around so that you see a non-crit, but the dmg dealt was calculated as a crit. But seeing the 2nd one... It's just false damage, though I don't know how the 2nd one is possible." well I don't think he's using sharp eyes so according to critical lag (i.e. showing critical damage but do normal damage) it should've still killed the mateon
