Combat log - Heat scars total

[Demonic God]

The combat log Summary page that shows Heat Scars Total - shows the heat scars you currently have - not the heat scars immediately after said battle

Sorry is there a bug here? Could you clarify what you mean as I'm not entirely sure what issue you are describing.

Combat log shows your CURRENT scars. It should be showing the post battle amount:

For example, this fight shows my current total of 0. In a fight that produces scars.

Reasons why this is a bug:

• CURRENT scars is a dynamic value, in a log that should be static
• CURRENT scars is not a useful info for a fight log, and can be accessed on the daily progress / combat balance menu

Were not the "Profile Rewards: XP" in the upper line referring to the Heat Scars gained after this battle? (And of course, if it were so, it should be altered to say "Heat Scars".)

When you say "post battle amount", do you mean the gain/loss from the battle?

Current after the battle or current before the battle?

Ah so you are saying it shows the value after the battle, and over time that value will change but the log will not?

So you think it should be changed in some way?

[Demonic God]

Current means as of now, currently, at time of viewing, upon inspection, in this very moment. It's a part of your player stat, at the point upon inspection, not any time in the past. I'm unaware of how I could make it more clear, as there are no defined wording for the term.

What the fight log show is that amount. This value changes. If you view the log after you do more combat, that value will change.

 

[Chewett]

Ah I understand what you mean now, that value is not fixed and stored in the log?

Can you elaborate which value you are referring to?

The idea here is the title "results" implies an after-battle report of heat scars, not a before-battle report.  The report is currently giving before-battle heat scars.

it shows your current heat scar (at time of viewing, unrelated to the fight) though. Here are several screenshots taken at the same time to illustrate my point. The fight listed are in reverse - most recent one is shown first.

Hopefully this removes all confusion to what I mean - Heat Scars Total, in every case, shows 180828, which is my scars after the last fight in the chain (or my current scars)
