    Hi all, Maxwell's demon asked me this question a few days ago but I'm not quite sure about the answer so could you guys help me on this :)

    OK, here is the story. I know veteran pistol has 300-400% damage and hunting reward "Increases attack damage by 1% each 5 common infected killed". But how are they combined?

    Say I'm using a pistol with 300% damage and killed 20 common infected, what attack damange will I get?
    300%+(1%*(20/5))=304%
    or
    300%*(100%+1%*(20/5))=312%

    Thank you.

    I don't use hunting reward anymore. I had it for 2 months or so, and I saw no such damage increase. I only use Veteran Pistols as my weapon, also. My guess is that Hunting Reward doesn't work with vets.

    Here is how it works:

    damage_after_upgrades = initial_damage*(upgrade_percet_sum/100.0)

    damage_after_skills = damage_after_upgrades*(skill_percent_sum/100.0)

    damage_after_buffs = damage_after_skills*( (buff_percent_sum + clan_buff_percent_sum)/100.0)

    After this, the damage passes trough the victim damage reduction upgrades, skills, buffs and clan buffs following the same order.
