>The bug was that the impact response granted to the weapon when it was made anti-barrier was overriding the spread projectile’s custom damage impulse to one that was much stronger (because the spread projectiles are inheriting much of their behavior from shotgun projectiles), hence the significantly increased damage.
>The charged shots didn’t have this issue, and being able to deal extra damage with the spread shots on marked targets is part of the intended gameplay.

I fucking called it. They used the Craftening data to make new gun types, and fucked up making a new Shotgun Ammit.
