Solo coliseum error: Bane DOT effect is too powerful

I found an error in the Solo coliseum fight against Crossbones, or at least something that doesn’t match the description: the damage over time effect Bane should take away 0,5 percent of your health per second for up to 10 seconds. That’s 5 percent of your max health in total (0,5x10). But in the game, the effect is much more devastating. I made a video and found out that in about a quarter of the time of the effect (thus 2,5 seconds), my health went down from 100 percent to 96 percent. So in total, over 10 seconds, thus would mean than you lost about 16 percent of your health instead of just 5 percent. That’s a massive difference.
Either the damage over time effect doesn’t work as intended or the description is wrong.

Could the difference be the number of furies Crossbones has?

Hasnt Bane always been the current health of the other champ?

Is this a new description?

DSRGOD123

In his kit he has a 20% boost to stacked fury’s or something,perhaps this applies to the bane node

DSRGOD123

Crossbones also 20% decreases defensive ability accuracy so probably something to do with that

bane has always been based on whoever doesn’t have the degens health, or at least im pretty sure…

Okay you’re probably right. I didn’t read it that way but this might be the case. English is not my mother tongue and the German description is not clear on which champion is meant. But this would describe the high DOT amount.

I read the node and got confused myself lol. That's why I edited and used a question mark.

Most of us remember bane from the past, the horrors of act 5 with 2.5% bane. Kabam have nerfed the node to 0.5% in most places these days.

unavoidable damage is just a cheap shot design regardless.

especially with the current ai.

I really wish they’d stop putting unavoidable dmg in.

(1st, it says CURRENT Health, not Max Health. But that's not your issue because you were at 100%, so Current and Max basically same).

Description has 3 references to WHO.

Person who lands the hit.
Opposing champ.
and then “THEIR” current health.

so the “THEIR” could maybe be referring to #2 (Opposing Champ). But as people are replying it probably refers to #1 (person who lands hit), using their (#1) own Health as basis for doing damage to the “Opposing Champ” #2.

Logically makes sense, because since it is “current health”. The champ being Degen'd by Bane would otherwise never be able to die from it. The closer to 0 health they get, 0.5% of that “almost zero” will never actually reach zero.

So Bane Degen is based on the champ that does NOT have the Bane icon on them. Which unfortunately as an attacker against a very high (ie, +300% Health node) champ, you take a lot of damage because defender has a very high health pool (until you start getting them down lower in health).

(sorry, I know you said English not 1st language, this is lot to translate for you, lol)

Old skool bane was way worse but the ai has an annoying habit of turtling despite allegedly not knowing its debuffed.

What can help is mixing up combos, doing 5 hits one after another is almost a guarantee of getting stooged so try to save 5 hits for when you can replace the bane.

It's his ai. He doesn't want to use his special attacks while bane is on him he hoes defensive. He waits until its transferred back to your character to use his special
