means it cannot.

AW. manashift - determines the increment for mana cost. 8 - whole

the manashift were 6, then it would cost 5 mana to use the skill.

SrcDam by Scott Weaver

Unhappy with the fact that my Amazon's Multi Shot only did 3/4 damage I
charged myself with the task of trying to reverse this to emulate earlier
versions of CD2. Comparing other Amazon bow skills (like freezing arrow,
etc.) to Multi Shot I noticed this one inconsistency. SrcDam, for all bow
skills that enchant you arrows in one way or another, had a value of 8 while
Multi Shot had a 6. On a hunch, I changed this value to 8 and compiled my
mod, and Voila! Multi Shot now does 100% damage as opposed to 75%.

I guess SrcDam would pretty much be explained as 'Modification to the Source
of the Damage' i.e. my bows base damage with attribute/enchant modifiers
applied.

Adjustment to weapon's damage based on SrcDam

SrcDam = 8 the multiplier would 1.00 (100%) (Confirmed)


SrcDam = 6 the multiplier would .75 (75%) (Confirmed)

SrcDam = 4 the multiplier would .50 (50%) (Theoretical)

SrcDam = 2 the multiplier would .25 (25%) (Theoretical)

So, theoretically, SrcDam = 10 would 125% of the normal damage done by your
weapon.
