Bombardment

Engineer skill · Artillery line · tier 5 (ultimate)

Beta 0.7.2

Calls in everything with ammunition. Little is left standing.

It is only used in combat once it is placed on the hero's active bar, and its 16 s cooldown is before cooldown reduction.

Values by rank

Bombardment scales with Fire Damage. Its value at each rank is 40.6 + 11.6 × rank:

Rank	1	2	3	4	5	6	7	8	9	10
Value	52.2	63.8	75.4	87	98.6	110.2	121.8	133.4	145	156.6

The value is the game's internal number for this skill.

in combat = round(value × skill power × max(0.35, hero damage ÷ 600))
hero damage = Attack + all elemental damage
skill power = 1 + 1% per point in the other Artillery skills + 2% per rank of each skill that boosts it

The damage factor has a minimum of 0.35 and no maximum. A hero with 600 damage and no line mastery or synergies gets the listed value; how it becomes damage or healing per hit depends on the skill's type and timing.
