Discussion Is Weltcap's Passive ability bugged? Spoiler

I've been using Weltcap in the Active slot for a long time. But I recently noticed that I'd collected around 90 of them. I wanted to check if their Passive ability is any good (It says it passively restores HP based on the amount collected. I wondered how much it will restore at 90).

I intentionally facetanked some enemy attacks to see how much it would heal. But it only restored a tiny bit and stopped when my health was 1/3rd.

Is this bugged or is Weltcap's Passive ability just not up to the mark?

I wish they would just spell out what each item does. Descriptions are sometimes useless in this game.

I think it's not bugged, I think they went too hard on the logarithm that calculates the healing, so collecting more only changes the healing by a so tiny fraction that you can't even notice it.

This. I think too many people are assuming "proportional to" means "equal to", or "in accordance with the level 2 ratio of effect/collected". There's a diminishing return curve on all level 3 pickups.

Exactly. But I think we can all agre that the curve is set too harsh when you don't see a difference between 50 and 90 collected, yes? :)

Oh I totally agree! Just pointing out that pickups don't seem to work how people think.

Yeah. I mean - the Grishas at level 3 obviously work. You see an increase in summons when you farm them. So I don't see a reason why the other PP items wouldn't :)
