Xenthos/Desi/Ixion all agree that damage/wounds is constant, so I won't bother testing that more than a few times.
As for 12 strength, I tested more with Bashara, and 12 always comes out doing more than 13 and 14.

117 fullplate makes me sad.

I made sure of that before we started the first set of tests. Mercy isn't up, and I don't have any other regeneration benefits outside of my natural Orclach regen. The regen doesn't start ticing until at least two-three seconds AFTER I take damage, and I have a punching bag system and my prompt to auto record damage directly after Rika hits me.
Everyone always forgets about me
Everyone always forgets about me
That's not how regeneration tends to work...

If your 12 stat is doing more damage, then you are doing something wrong or there's something else at work that you are missing. There is nothing in the code that could possibly give 12 more damage than higher stats.

You still have never said how many tests you are doing. You should do multiple tests (at least 20) and average them out.

This won't help at all if it's not actually variable.
The question is whether or not 12 itself is variable for some reason.

Experimental vs how it looks in code can be very different, as we've seen multiple times before.
